 Why do teeth become discoloured?

Teeth become discoloured for many reasons:
 

  • Tea, coffee, red wine and cigarette smoke can yellow your teeth
  • Certain medications can also cause the teeth to become grey
  • Teeth have nerves and blood vessels inside them. If these nerves and blood vessels are damaged the tooth may become darker (this can happen because of decay, or if the teeth are knocked)
  • Tooth decay, fillings and tartar build-up can contribute to discolouration
  • Simply because of age, many people develop yellowish staining on their teeth


The good news is that, thanks to teeth whitening, all the above can be overcome. With procedures using hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide to bleach out stains on your tooth enamel, excellent results can be achieved.

How much whiter will my teeth look?

This varies from individual to individual, but most people respond very well to teeth whitening treatment, seeing dramatic whitening results.

Does it hurt? And are there any side effects?

Your teeth may feel a little sensitive during and/or after the initial treatment. This is usually described by patients as sporadic sharp shooting pains coming from your teeth. But don't worry. This should settle down after approximately 48 hours. We can even give you a special gel or mousse to apply to your teeth to help with the sensitivity.

Home Whitening

The home whitening system involves having special plastic trays specifically fabricated for your teeth. The whitening gel is administered from small syringes into the trays and these are worn for 45 minutes to an hour a day for up to 2 weeks. The strength of the home whitening gel is 10% carbamide peroxide. This is considerably weaker than the chairside gel which is why a prolonged exposure to the gel is needed.

The home kit can be used as well as the chairside procedure which will enable you to give your teeth an extra boost whenever you want.
The home kit gives exactly the same end result as the chair side procedure but it just takes longer and you must wear the trays every day. Sometimes if the teeth are extremely discoloured it can actually produce slightly better results because you have the ability to use the home kit as many times as you want.
