Is Teeth Whitening Safe?

Teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dental procedures – not just in the UK but all around the world. So many patients come to us seeking brighter, and many of them have the same initial question: is teeth whitening safe? The answer is a resounding yes, but only when carried out by an experienced team! Here’s what you can expect from our Essex teeth whitening.

DIY kits bought online or over the counter can sometimes contain harmful chemicals or have instructions that, if not followed carefully, can damage your enamel or gums. However, when you undergo professional teeth whitening at Bluebell Dentistry & Aesthetics, you are in safe hands. The solutions that we use have been carefully formulated to reduce the risk of sensitivity or damage. Our dental team will also assess your oral health to ensure you’re a suitable candidate for the procedure, and they’ll tailor the treatment to your specific needs.

Choosing Bluebell Dentistry & Aesthetics for your teeth whitening offers several advantages, including:

No two smiles are the same, which is why we take a tailored approach with every patient. Before starting the whitening procedure, our team conducts a thorough examination of your teeth and gums to determine if any underlying issues need addressing. This ensures that your whitening treatment gets off to the best possible start!

We use high-quality, professional-grade whitening materials that you will not be able to buy in stores. These will be carefully applied with real care to ensure minimal exposure to gums and other sensitive areas, reducing the risk of irritation. The concentration of the whitening gel is also closely monitored, giving you effective results without the risk of damaging your enamel.

Here at Bluebell Dentistry & Aesthetics, you’ll benefit from the expertise of highly skilled dental professionals. We ensure that every step of the whitening process is executed with precision, from the preparation of your teeth to the application of the whitening agent. This reduces the risk of sensitivity and uneven results, which are both common issues with home whitening kits.

When done professionally, teeth whitening treatments provide longer-lasting results compared to DIY methods. Our team can also provide you with aftercare tips to help you maintain your brighter smile for as long as possible. By following our advice and keeping on top of your treatment, you can enjoy a brighter smile for years to come!

Just like with any cosmetic procedure, there can be some mild and temporary side effects. These can include tooth sensitivity or minor gum irritation. These effects usually subside within a few days and can be easily managed. Our team will carefully monitor your progress throughout the treatment and adjust it to suit your comfort levels, keeping any discomfort to a minimum.
