What Is Teeth Whitening Guildford?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teeth whitening Guildford<\/a> is one of the leading cosmetic dental practices out there; it’s become super accessible and financially viable with more and more people feeling the pressure of social media to flash their bright white smiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teeth whitening Guildford<\/strong> comes in a variety of different forms, from purely in-house procedures to the more commonly used at-home kits (which is what we tend to use). These kits work over the course of two weeks and use custom-made trays alongside bleaching agents. They are very safe and great for anyone wanting to whiten their smile in the comfort of their own home. At-home kits also have the benefit of allowing you to top up your whitening whenever you see fit since you already have the trays at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintaining A White Smile<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an attempt to be as transparent with patients as we can be, first, we\u2019d like to point out how tricky it can be for patients wanting to constantly maintain a bright white smile. Unfortunately, modern lifestyles have not in any way made it easy to keep teeth white since lots of the foods and drinks we love to consume are high in tannins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talk On Tannins<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tannins are what we refer to when talking about the substance in food and drink that causes staining. Naturally, some things contain high levels of staining agents, such as red wine, tea, coffee, bright-coloured fruits, curries, spices, juices, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, completely removing these lovely things from our diets can feel like an impossible task, which is, of course, understandable; who can go without their daily coffee fix? But finding ways to lower tannin intake is crucial for those who want to keep their smiles a certain shade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleaning Works<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being proactive with your oral hygiene routine will also seriously help you when it comes to keeping a brighter smile. The quicker you can remove any staining substances from the top layer of your teeth, the better; don\u2019t wait till your nighttime clean; give your teeth a quick once-over straight after lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good Toothpaste<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using toothpaste that is designed to assist with whitening will work; there are some great types of toothpaste on the market, which can be a little bit more expensive but very much worth the investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avoid Scams<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check up on what you purchase. There are lots of products easily available online claiming to whiten teeth, but in fact, they hold harsh dangerous chemicals. If you\u2019re unsure about a product, get in contact with our clinic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
