does the teeth whitening treatment cover all teeth or is it just the front teeth?
Q. I want to buy my wife teeth whitening for her birthday. Does the treatment cover all teeth or is it just the front teeth? Also, I understand that the laser treatment id non abrasive and does not damage the enamel – is this right? Finally, I am assuming that al full mouth treatment is likely to be more like £700 rather than £300 – is this right? Many thanks
A. There are several whitening options on the market.
The one that I would recommend is a system called ‘ENLIGHTEN’
This system is to done every night over 2 weeks with some home trays that fit over the teeth. whitening solution is applied into these trays.
After the 2 weeks, then there is an in-office application- where your wife will bring her home trays and a much stronger soltion is then applied. 3 applications of 20 minutes will be applied to the teeth and then the whitening course is complete. This option is much more predictable and the whitest shades can be achieved. The cost of ENLIGHTEN at my practice is £650. And yes, this covers all of the teeth in the arch, not just the front ones!
The other system that we find is quite popular, is the system called ZOOM!
It is solely performed in-surgery under a laser lamp. It is convenient and effective. the cost of this system is £450.
I would however stress that any fillings, crowns and veneers will not change colour through the whitening, and would advise a consultation to assess which system will be more suitable. Hope this informtion has helped.
