I was told that I should’ve been given more whitener to use at home, what should I do?

Saturday, December 4th, 2010
Q.

I had made teeth whitened at the dentist using the Zoom 2 technique in Dec 2010, I was very pleased with the results since they went 7 shades lighter, and they werent that bad in the 1st place. I was given one application of de-sentising solution and one application of whitener to use 48hrs later. Two months later my teeth are the same colour as before, I dont drink red wine, tea, coffee or smoke and was wondering if this was normal. I look after my teeth and rang the dental surgery this morning who said I should have had more whitener to use at home, could I have your advice please

What can I do about bonding that has become discoloured?

Friday, December 3rd, 2010
Q.

I am a 47 year old female. I had peridontal surgery 22 years ago and am fortunate to still have my teeth, however I am not happy with the looks of them. Some years back my dentist bonded them to make the more stable. The bonding has discolored from the color of my teeth and no longer looks very good. I have had it redone a couple times but he says it doesn’t adhere well after the first time because of not having the porous tooth surface to adhere too. I do have a lot of bone loss, but it has held its own for all these years and when I smile you really can’t see that. Guess the discoloration is my main concern. He talked about a partial but I’m not ready to give up my teeth yet. Thanks

What are the best teeth whitening options for stained enamel?

Thursday, November 18th, 2010
Q.
My front two teeth are discouloured and it is in the enamel caused by too much floride when I was growing up. I have tried tray bleeching kits via my dentist but my teeth are still noticebaly stained. I am interested in the laser whitening but I am not sure it would work and therefore would veneers be the best option? I would like all my teeth whitened but especially my front two. Would lazer whitening work on discoloured enamel or are veneers my best bet? How much would this cost (approx)?
