Should I Whiten My Teeth Before Replacing my Crowns?

Thursday, March 12th, 2015
Q.

Good evening. I have purchased a deal online to get my crowns re-done with a lighter colour. I would like laser teeth whitening and I know this does not work on fake teeth hence the reason for my purchase of new crowns. However, I am doing the procedures separately as I found a separate deal on Groupon for £79 for Zoom! teeth whitening in Kensington. Should I get the whitening done before replacing the crowns, and will it be OK that the procedures are separate? Also is Zoom! a good make? Thank you.

Is There Any Way I Can Dull My Tooth Colour a Bit?

Wednesday, March 11th, 2015
Q.

I whitened my teeth with 3 weeks of wearing Zoom! in trays from my dentist. It was following Invisalign treatment. I have extremely pale English skin and I feel that I have ‘over-whitened’ my teeth so that the shade does not look natural against my colouring. My teeth were quite yellow before so it’s a huge contrast and I wish I had not whitened them for long and gone for a more natural creamy shade that complements my skin tone better. It’s 4 months since I whitened them and they are still looking very ‘bright’ and too white! I know that the effects of whitening will fade a bit over time but is there anything I can do to give them a more creamy natural shade, or how long will it take for the ‘brightness’ to dull down a bit? A year, 2-5 years? I realise I’m here with a different issue than most people but I do think skin tone is a very important consideration in getting a pleasing natural shade – not just matching to the whites of your eyes. Thanks.

I Am Self Conscious About My Teeth And Want To Know Whether I’m Too Young For Teeth Whitening?

Friday, January 3rd, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Gambroudes, I’m 16, 17 in January and I really want to get my teeth whitened as I feel self conscious about my teeth as they’re slightly yellow. I don’t want to use a home kit as I don’t want to get it wrong. Would someone at my age be allowed laser teeth whitening? Also what are the disadvantages, how long will it take? Will it be noticeable and how will it cost? Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hi Dr Hughes, I wondered if you could help me? I was with a dentist and
paid 1000 to have 4 crowns done and then they told me i could pay monthly,
,after a few visits they wanted to clean them and so i went along had the zoom
whitener treatment ….i was in complete agony ..the next step was to have my
new crowns made ,they then asked me for a further 2000 before they would start
the treatment saying they had deducted 798 for the zoom when they knew i wanted
to replace the teeth ..i had problems with them and they never got back to me,
please could you help me. they didn’t deal with me properly from the start and
i feel i have been conned out of a lot of money. I don’t know what to do and i
don’t fancy paying any more money than what i already have, thank you for your
