Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry treatments we offer here at Islington Smiles.

What is teeth whitening?

Used to whiten and brighten teeth that have become dull and discoloured, teeth whitening uses a bleaching agent that is safely applied to the teeth. This penetrates the tooth enamel, effectively breaking down the discoloured molecules there and leaving the teeth looking whiter.

Why do I need teeth whitening?

Patients choose to whiten and brighten their teeth due to a variety of reasons. Discoloration of the teeth is a natural process, and one that increases as we age. It’s affected by various lifestyle and dietary choices such as smoking and drinking tea, coffee, red wine and coloured sports drinks all of which can discolour the teeth further. If you’re unhappy with your smile, or find yourself covering your mouth when you smile, then teeth whitening could be the boost you need to smile with confidence again.

Which products do you use?

At Islington Smiles, we offer our patients a range of options when it comes to teeth whitening. We’ve chosen to work with Enlighten® Evolution, Boutique Whitening, Pola Whitening, and Philips Zoom White-Speed. We can help you decide which treatment is most suitable for you at a consultation.
