Q. Dear Dr. Patel, How will teeth whitening affect on teeth where there are used composite, like front teeth? Will you get a different in “whiteness”? Do you rather have to place lumineers to avoid this? Thank you for taking your time. Best regards,
A. Composites often need to be replaced after whitening you don’t always need to have veneers unless you really don’t like the colour and shape of your teeth.

Q. One of my 15 year old daughter’s front teeth is dark grey. Her dentist says it is as a result of bleeeding inside the tooth, but it is still alive and recommended tooth whitening (smile-x) on just that one tooth. The tooth is not stained; the discolouration has happened inside of the tooth and so I don’t see how whitening the outside of the tooth will help. Is there any method of possibly whitening the inside of t
he tooth? I do not want her to have veneers. What is your opinion? Thank you for your time.
A. You cannot have internal bleaching on a tooth that has not had root canal treatment. I recommend you have this tooth x-rayed and ask your dentist to do a pulp test. If the reason for the tooth discolouration is internal bleeding, the tooth is definately dead. In this case it need to have a Root Canal, you then can try internal bleaching.
kind regards

Q. Hie Doc. Wich is the best tooth paste i can use to whiten my teeth,they are not in a bad state,but i feel they need some whitening.I bought BLANX just two days ago and i wonder if it can do an good.Please help.
A. Whitening toothpastes have limited whitening effects the best way is too professionally whiten your teeth through your dentist. Some whitening toothpastes can be abrasive and cause damage to your teeth.

Q. Hello I had bulimia in the past and my teeth are heavily damaged, the front teeth especially have lost enamel and left ugly yellow marks that brings down my confidence. I am considering teeth whitening. Would this make the yellow marks disappear? Thank you for your time
A. I have treated a number of bullimic patients and if all the enamel has been removed the teeth will not whiten, better option is bonded fillings or porcelain veneers or crowns.

Q. Dear Dr. Patel, At the age of around 12 I chipped my front tooth after a fall leaving less than half of my front tooth behind. I had a filling applied to this, but the tooth has gradually darkened over time. I’ve heard that this is due to internal bleeding within the tooth. Yesterday, this filling fell out and I am yet again left with half a tooth. The tooth in question is a few shades darker than my other front tooth and it looks very bad. I’m an 18 year old on a gap year, with no money at all. Would the NHS be able to help with my problem because it really looks awful? Thank you
A. You should be able to get NHS treatment you might need a root canal treatment and maybe a crown, or a bonded filling and internal tooth whitening.

Q. I have bonding, approx. 12 years old, on my two front teeth which are stained yellow. I am going to do an at-home whitening system. Do I need to wait 2 weeks after I’ve totally completed the whitening before I have the bonding replaced ? Thus, do I need to wait in order for my teeth to fully absorb & change color to the final “whiteness” in order to accurately match the bonding to the new white? Also, I’ve been told that I cannot do the ZOOM in office whitening because I have extremely sensitive teeth. Is this true as well?
A. Zoom is not advised for extremely sensitive teeth.
You should wait a week after finishing the whitneing before replacing the bonding to give them time to settle.

Q. I am interested in having my teeth whitened. would you recommend that I should see my local dentist or use your whitening kit. Are results guaranteed? What if I am not completely satisfied do you have a money back guarantee?
A.
No dentist will give you a money back guarantee on tooth whitening as your teeth are the limiting factor, not the product. Everybody achieves different results, some people jump 10 shades, some only 2 It is impossible to tell you what result you will achieve pre treatment. /you just have to try it. Tooth whitening is the least invasive way to achieve a whiter smile.

Q. I have quite yellow teeth,always have since a child. I have recently had bone grafts in both upper and lower jaw due to peridontal disease.Which i am told has been stopped.Now i need 4 crowns.I would like whiter teeth before the new crowns are made.The dentist told me that as i smoke the results will only last a few months?.So i may have to opt for two veneers on the canine teeth,which are the darkest teeth. I live in Cyprus ,so a UK visit is not an option with dental costs involved. What do you think about whitening as opposed to the 2 veneers. Do you have any contact info of a clinic that uses the enlighten system in Cyprus. For over 30 years all i ever wanted was a nice smile, now im confused and wary!!!Please help.
A. I would rather you tried whitening you can always have veneers later. I use the enlighten system and think its the best you could try contacting the enlighten company directly to find a dentist.

Q. Hi im interested in getting my teeth whitened, however how is this allowed as i read an article that says th Eu only allows 0.01% hydrogen peroxide. Surely this wouldnt work. MY dentist says he can do it but im now sceptical as it sounds illegal and dangerous. Can you help, thanks
A.
Teeth whitening at the dentist is not dangerous. Teeth whitening is non invasive and is the best, least invasive way to whitening your teeth. The only side effect is that you may get some sensitivity, which will subside within 48 hours of stopping the treatment.

Q. How can I find a reliable practice for teeth whitening? How much would Enlighten Deep Bleaching cost? Thank you in advance
A. Thanks for your e-mail, my first suggestion with regards to finding a relaible practice for teeth whitening would always be tom listen to recommendations from colleagues, friends and family. If you have exhausted these avenues with little success, I would possibly look for a practice which offers free initial consultations, as this would allow you to meet the dentist and get a feel for the practice you are attending. I would also recommend looking at feedback on the internet, possibly reading patient testimonials on the relevant websites. In respect of the cost of Enlighten Deep Bleaching, prices will vary from practice to practice, but I can inform you that I currently offer this service at a cost of £650. I hope this will be of assistance to you. Kindest Regards. Dr Kailesh Solanki
