Everyone wants a brighter, whiter smile.
Teeth-whitening is one of the quickest, easiest, and least expensive forms of cosmetic dental enhancement available.
How does teeth whitening work?
Teeth-whitening products contain a concentrated mix of hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. These bleaching agents oxidise in the mouth to scrub away surface stains and penetrate deep into the enamel safely. This solution reduces stains from pigmented food particles and smoking, lightening your teeth by several shades.
How long do the effects last?
Each case is different. The less you stress your teeth with smoking or drinking red wine, coffee, or tea, the longer the bleaching effect will last. A whitening treatment can last from several months up to a year or more without noticeable colour degradation.
Where does the treatment take place?
At-home teeth whitening is convenient. The whitening treatment is a multi-stage process. You’ll need to make an appointment to obtain your custom whitening trays. Then you can administer the solution to yourself in the comfort of your own home.
Are there side effects of teeth whitening?
The most common side effect of most teeth-whitening products is tooth sensitivity. This can be controlled with special toothpaste, or by utilising a gentler formula that whitens teeth more gradually. Ultimately, teeth-whitening treatments are completely safe.
Enlighten’s Evolution™
If you’re looking for a brighter smile, Enlighten’s Evolution™ is revolutionising the teeth-whitening market. It’s the only product that offers whitening up to 16 shades, and you can boost it from home whenever you need to use a teeth-whitening tray and some gel.
It is a combination of at-home and in-chair teeth-whitening system that guarantees Vita Shade B1 – the whitest shade on a regular dentist shade guide.
Enlighten® also uses ¼ less hydrogen peroxide than standard whitening methods. It increases the tooth’s permeability to oxygen.
How does Enlighten’s Evolution™ work?
Enlighten’s Evolution™ teeth-whitening system begins with some impressions being made in your dental clinic, which is then sent off to make custom bleaching trays. During this period, you’ll use Enlighten®’s toothpaste twice per day when you brush your teeth.
You’ll pick up the bleaching trays from your dentist, and you’ll use them at night while you sleep for two weeks. Then, you’ll spend about 40 minutes in the practice for a professional whitening treatment.
How long does it last?
As long as you take care of your bleaching trays, you can continue to order the gel to use at home whenever you need a top-up. Most dentists recommend wearing your trays overnight once every 2-3 months, along with using Enlighten®’s toothpaste.
