my dentist said there was no difference in between laser and home kit do you agree?

Thursday, April 30th, 2009
Q.
Hello, I’ve been speaking to my dentist about having my teeth whitened. He advised me to go with the take home kit because he believed, the 1hr laser was much more risky in terms of causing damage to gums and blood supply to the teeth as well as an increased risk of tooth sensitivity for up to 6 months. He also said that there was no difference in effectiveness between the 2 techniques. Would you agree with both these statements? Many thanks!

my teeth are naturally yellow give me some home remedies as i am desperate

Monday, April 27th, 2009
Q.
I am 16 and my teeth are naturally yellow. It’s gotten to the point where I avoid photos and cover my mouth when talking to people because I hate the way my teeth look. I can’t afford professional whitening and I have tried lots of home toothpastes but they all just remove stains. (I always brush my teeth at least twice a day and never drink coffee, smoke etc. so this is not the problem.) Please give me some home remedies as I am desperate, thanks.

could you tell me if any of the tooth whitening products are free from animal products

Friday, April 24th, 2009
Q.
Hello could you tell me if any of the tooth whitening products are free from animal products i.e: free of gelatin, uric acid etc? I am interested in the ones used in the surgery rather than the home kits. I’d like my teeth professionally whitened but am aware that some of the products use are not veggie friendly thanks

does the teeth whitening treatment cover all teeth or is it just the front teeth?

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009
Q.
I want to buy my wife teeth whitening for her birthday. Does the treatment cover all teeth or is it just the front teeth? Also, I understand that the laser treatment id non abrasive and does not damage the enamel – is this right? Finally, I am assuming that al full mouth treatment is likely to be more like £700 rather than £300 – is this right? Many thanks

i have crown and bridges at the front of my teeth what my option for teeth whitening

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009
Q.
I have quite yellow teeth and would love to have a white smile. I also have a crown and a bridge at the front so I would have to replace them if I get my teeth whitened. What is the best way to do it? Would laser whitening make much difference and would I have to use home kits afterwards to keep them white? Would veneers be better? How much would it all cost?
