Teeth whitening Macleod: giving you a proud, confident smile!
You can achieve anything you put your mind to with a positive attitude! Everyone has their own set of skills and attributes, and one of those is their unique physical appeal. The last two decades have seen technology become an entrenched part of our lives. The advent of the smartphone with advanced technology cameras has created a world of amateur photographers. We are keen to record events with a picture of ourselves. Producing a smile should be as natural and unencumbered as blinking your eyes. Yet, for some, displaying their teeth in a smile can be embarrassing due to various reasons, one being dental discolouration, which can be caused by several factors. The most common culprits of teeth staining are food and drink, in particular coffee, tea, red wine, cola drinks and tobacco. Teeth whitening Macleod has become extremely popular. At The Dental Retreat, our in-clinic whitening treatment is conducted quickly at your convenience, and we can provide a bespoke b service that will make you proud to smile.
Patient care
Any oral procedure is preceded by a comprehensive examination to assess the health of your oral cavity. Dental discolouration can also be an indication of an underlying medical condition, so we take care to first assess the cause. Some medications can cause your teeth to lose their lustre and become discoloured, and certain other conditions that may cause your teeth to discolour are eating disorders, liver disease, celiac disease or a calcium deficiency. If we identify any of these as a possible cause, we will advise you to contact your medical practitioner.
Better to be safe
There is a plethora of kits on the commercial market to whiten your teeth, which come in a variety of products. Everybody is different, and each individual’s teeth and gums react differently to the solutions available. Our expertise allows us to create a bespoke treatment, especially for you, based on the sensitivity of your teeth and gums. Treatment with the correct strength of hydrogen or carbamide peroxide is vital to ensure that neither your teeth nor your gums are damaged in any way. Our friendly team will guide and advise you of the options available.
Before we proceed with teeth whitening Macleod, we will need to establish that your teeth and gums are healthy. Any periodontal problems or dental cavities that we may find must be attended to first. For these reasons, it is prudent to visit us if you are considering whitening your teeth to avoid any problems later. You have the choice of letting us perform the procedure in our dental clinic, or if you prefer, we will provide you with the correct solution and instructions for you to take home.
An asset
Your teeth are an asset you’d want to take care of so that they will serve you for the rest of your life. Oral hygiene is part of that process, and regular brushing and flossing will keep them looking good and your breath fresh. Your teeth can be whitened about once every year, and the combination of correct brushing and annual whitening will help you maintain the health and aesthetic appeal you want to achieve. We recommend that you include at least an annual dental visit before the future whitening of your teeth.
