Teeth Whitening
Are you a coffee lover or tea drinker? Or maybe you like to celebrate the weekend with a couple of glasses of red wine while watching TV? Perhaps you have just quit smoking (well done!) but the dark staining on your teeth is starting to upset you? We know that yellow stained teeth can be unsightly and can bring on the blues! Let’s explore safe professional ways to brighten your smile and remove staining from your teeth so you can wear your smile like a badge of honour.
It is true that our lifestyle does show on our teeth. Regular consumption of tea, coffee, red wine and curries (turmeric and paprika) and smoking all stain our teeth gradually over time. Let us brighten your smile! Here at Main Street Dental Clinic in Coatbridge, Glasgow, whitening options are both non-invasive, effortless and can remove years of staining and discolouration from your teeth. There are two main treatments we offer as listed below:
Tooth Whitening Kit
This a simple process whereby tooth whitening gels are given to yourself with instructions on how to use them at home. The tooth whitening gel breaks the stains into smaller pieces, which makes the colour less concentrated and your teeth a lot brighter.
What to Expect
3 Appointments
FIRST APPOINTMENT
Your expectations and wishes are listened to and the details of the treatment and products used are discussed. A shade and clinical photographs are taken as a reference before commencing treatment. Impressions of your teeth are taken to create moulds in order for custom trays to be made.
SECOND APPOINTMENT
Custom made trays and tooth whitening gels are provided along with written usage instructions. Dr Razik and Dr Alvi or your usual dentist will make sure that you are comfortable with using the trays and instruct you on how to look after them before you leave.
THIRD (FINAL) APPOINTMENT
At this appointment your teeth and gums are re-examined, and a final shade is recorded along with new clinical photographs. You can compare these photos with those taken at the first appointment to see for yourself the results of your tooth whitening treatment.
Dental Airflow Therapy
A gentle yet powerful stain removal treatment which uses a combination of water, air and fine powder to yield amazing results. A perfect choice for those who want a chemical-free quick fix for a special occasion or job interview.
What to Expect
1 Appointment
The entire procedure is performed in the clinic. Dr Alvi and Dr Razik will use a fine jet of compressed air, water and fine powder molecules to remove staining on your teeth caused by highly coloured food and drinks, tobacco and some mouthwashes.
