Teeth whitening

Whitening will not change the colour of your teeth completely but will lighten the shade, without removing any of the tooth surface. It is a safe procedure when carried out under professional supervision. Results last indefinitely. Just simply touch up your teeth with whitening gel every few years. Sometimes without a touch up, your teeth will start to re-stain by the same things that caused them to discolour in the first place.

It may be necessary to have other dental treatments prior to whitening, as whitening treatments can only be applied to healthy teeth and gums. A visit to the dental hygienist is also recommended prior to whitening treatment, to give the teeth a thorough cleaning and remove any surface stains. Teeth whitening is not effective on dental restorations such as amalgam fillings, metal or porcelain crowns, etc.

At Lynn Road Dental Practice we use simple and safe home whitening systems. After checking your dental health, your dentist will take an impression to custom make dental trays that fit snuggly to your teeth. Once your trays are ready, your dentist will give you whitening gel and provide guidance on how to apply this at home, along with the required length of treatment in order to see your personal results. It may take between 3 days and a couple of weeks to see results, depending on your original discolouration and preferred shade.

Temporary sensitivity can affect some patients. If sensitivity is present, wear times should be shortened or made less frequent. Additionally, desensitizing toothpastes, gels, or mouthwashes can be used before or after the whitening process.

My dentist keeps me informed of progress throughout the treatment, and explain what he will be doing and why before he starts. He and his assistants make for a relaxed atmosphere which helps too.

Absolutely wonderful. I broke a piece off my tooth a couple of weeks ago and couldn't get an appointment quickly anywhere except this lovely place. They got me in and did a temporary filling because I was in pain, until I went back a week later for the proper filling. The lady dentist and her assistant were brilliant, the dentist even did a little filing on another tooth that had an issue. Everyone was friendly and I'm hoping to stay at this dentist in the future. Their kindness and attention to detail was second to none. (Considering the cost would have been the same at Purfleet, this dentist was head and shoulders above their 'service'). Thank you all.

Usually the appointments go smoothly although as a long term patient, I pre make my 6 month appointment and pay a monthly insurance so those things cause less time at checkout desk.

The dentist is always very kind. I have acid reflux and cannot have the chair very reclined. I have to swallow frequently. He always stops whenever I need to do this. He explains in detail what treatment he recommends and is always kind and considerate.

A warm welcome from reception staff , cheerful waiting room . Positive approach from the Dentist with constructive advice and encouragement and not least conscientious assistance from Dental Nurse . I have been a patient here for some fifteen years and the practice scores highly in relation to previous experience elsewhere.
