Is teeth whitening provide long lasting result?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Q. MY TEETH ARE REALLY YELLOW IS THERE ANY CHANCE THAT AFTER HAVING THE TEETH WHITENING PROCESS THEY MIGHT NOT CHANGE COLOUR, AND CAN YOU CHOOSE WHETHER YOU HAVE THE SURGERY WHITENING OR THE HOME-MADE TRAYS?

A. Thanks for your questions, with the latest teeth whitening products available from your dental professional, you should expect your teeth to whiten noticably. Although the dentist will advise you of the best whitening products they offer, the choice of home kits or in surgery procedures should be your own. I hope this helps.
Many thanks

Should I go for whitening or veneer for the tooth which had root treatment?

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Q. I had root treatment on one of my front teeth years ago and the tooth has gone grey, would whitening help or would a veneer be preferable, if so how much would one veneer cost? Thanks

A. hi many thanks for your email, the gery tooth can be treated by internal whitening but this is sometimes unpredictable and even if the tooth whitens sometimes the colour can reverse.

the veneer is more predictable and long term, the cost of a single tooth veneer can range from £500 – £1200. dependant on where you go. my charge is usually £750.

hope this is helpful.

Teeth whitening with few veneers causes mismatch in color

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

Q. ive got an appointment to have my teeth whitened,via lazer and then the trays i have alot of veneres,im aware they cant be whitened wont my teeth look odd with some bright white and others yellow as i smoke what can be done about the yellow teeth ? thankyou fort your time

A.

Thanks for your questions. As you are a smoker, the use of a stain removal system by your dentist or hygienist, may improve the appearance of your veneers. However, when my patients have had veneers in the past and now wish to have their teeth whitened, they have usually made the decision to replace the veneers to match the whitened shade of the teeth. You are correct in thinking that your natural teeth and the colour of your veneers may be quite different after the procedure. I hope this helps.

How to whiten my teeth with veneers?

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Q. Hi, I have had lumineers for about 2 years,and I had bulimia for most of that time, I noticed recently that they are yellow, especially towards the gumline, I bought white strips, but it says it doesn’t work on veneers, What is the best way for me to whiten my teeth? is it possible to whiten them? please advise. Thank you.

A. If the underlying tooth is dark it is very difficult to whiten them. Whitening gels may damage your veneers the only option may be to replace them.

I ve teeth discoloration will zoom whitening work?

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Q. I was born with a discolouration on my teeth (a slightly yellowy checkered effect up close) due to how I passed through the birth canal or something like that! Would zoom whitening work on my teeth or would this only emphasise the problem? Thanks

A. hi many thanks for your email, with such intrinsic staining there are two outcomes with tooth whitening, the first is the problem will decrease and the staining will blend, the second outcome is that the whitening will emphisize the problem. the main concern is that until you try you wont know.

hope this is helpful.

What would you recommend to fix my buck teeth and whiten my teeth?

Monday, October 19th, 2009

Q. Hey Dr. Solanki I have two big buck teeth that really bother me they are way big and have a gap in the middle but the rest of my teeth are pretty much straight just those two and my teeth also arent the whitest what would you recommend to fix my buck teeth and whiten my teeth?

A. hi many thanks for your email, the two options to fix your buck teeth are braces or veneers, the braces are more conservative but the treatment may take longer, the veneers are a much quicker fix but hav the draw back of the teeth needing to be filed down and also the veneers will need replacing every 10-15 years. the whitening treatments i would recommend is zoom2 whitening or enlighten.

How long I need to wait to replace bonding after whitening?

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

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.

Will the tooth whitening kit gives guaranteed results?

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

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.

What would the cost for teeth whitening procedure?

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009

Q. At the moment I have a fixed brace on and will soon have it removed but after I would really like to have my teeth whitened. What would be the best way to do this and How much would it cost? Thank You

A.

Teeth whitening costs range from £200-£800 depending on the clinic and type of teeth whiteing you opt for.
The best type of teeth whitening for you depends on your age and the current shade of your teeth.
I recommend you book an appointment with your dentist and seek his opinion.

Cost for reliable teeth whitening and deep bleaching

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009

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

Is there any whitening procedure that I could have that would be effective?

Monday, October 5th, 2009

Q. Hi Dr. Glaister A question about teeth whitening – I was given tetracycline as a child when my permanent dentition was developing, and my teeth are now rather stained. Given that the staining appears to be within the tooth – rather than upon the surface of the enamel – is there any whitening procedure that I could have that would be effective? Many thanks

A.

Tooth whitening unfortunately is ineffective on tetracycline staining. The only thing you can so to change the colour of your teeth would be to Veneers them. Case 14 in my portfolio http://www.umbrellasmiles.com/portfolio.html is veneers placed for tetracycline staining.

My front tooth seems to be chipped even though I hadnt hit it on anything why?

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

Q. I just started whitening my teeth with 44% carbamide peroxide gel I bought online. I’ve used it 4 times total… once a day for 5 minutes for the last 4 days. After the second use, I noticed my front tooth seemed to be chipped even though I hadn’t hit it on anything. Two more uses later, and the chip seems to be getting bigger. Everything I’ve read online says carbamide peroxide whiteners are safe and the worst side effect is tooth sensitivity, which I haven’t experienced. What is going on with my tooth?! Is it from the whitener??

A. I’m not sure whats happening here but I would advise you to go to your dentist to get it checked out in case it is something to do with the gel
