Hi,

Im 20 years old and my teeth are quite straight, but very very stained. I really need help to get them white, I have tried everything, different toothpastes, different methods of brushing, but nothing seems to be working. What could I do? Also, what are your prices like? I am a student so i cant afford grands just for my teeth. HELP ME :-(

I can understand your frustrations. It very much depends on what the problem is. If it is a simple problem, tooth whitening should work well. The cost of this can range from £100-£1000 depending on which system is used and what result is required.

There are certain conditions which cause darkness of teeth which cannot be corrected with whitening, without a full consultation it is difficult to tell you more or what would be required to correct these problems

I hope this helps

Kindest regards

Hello

There are many factors that can discolour/stain your teeth.

Intrinsic staining - the actual teeth are discoloured

Extrinsic staining - staining from smoking / surface debris / teas and coffee stains etc

In my practice, every patient has an appointment with the hygienist, where she uses a special pro-flex system which removes all the extrinsic stains. I would strongly recommend you look into this first before looking into whitening as alot of the time this can be sufficient,

However, after the hygiene, you feel that you would like a fresher, brighter look to your smile, there are alot of whitening products/systems you can consider,
At smilessence - we use the Zoom -advanced power system which can achieve up to 7 shades lighter. we also offer Deep bleaching if you feel you want to go whiter.

I hope this helps

Kind Regards
