Milsons Point dentists can discuss elective cosmetic treatment options, including their suitability, risks, limitations and alternatives.
Whitening may lighten natural teeth, but the degree and duration of colour change vary. Some discolouration responds poorly. Crowns, veneers and tooth-coloured fillings do not whiten in the same way, so colour differences can remain.
Risks and suitability: Tooth sensitivity and irritation of gums or other soft tissues can occur. Incorrect use can cause harm. A dental assessment is needed to identify decay, gum disease, existing sensitivity or other factors that affect suitability. Tell the clinician about pregnancy, breastfeeding, allergies and previous reactions so the proposed method can be assessed.
Treatment and recovery: In-chair and take-home methods use different products and schedules. Follow the specific instructions provided; do not increase concentration, wear time or frequency yourself. Sensitivity or irritation is often temporary and may last a few days, but can persist. Stop using the product and contact the practice if pain or irritation is significant or does not settle. Results may fade; repeat treatment is not automatically appropriate.
Alternatives may include no whitening, removal of surface stains where clinically indicated, or assessment of the cause of an individual discoloured tooth. Whitening is optional and cannot promise a particular shade or improved confidence.
If you feel anxious about dental treatment, let our team know. We can discuss options for managing anxiety and discomfort before treatment.
