Smile White Teeth Whitening in Luton

Nothing beats teeth whitening at a dentist. Available only by prescription, Smile Whitesyringes are filled with the highest safest strength 16% carbamide peroxide gel. This gives you a beautiful white smile in 1-2 weeks when used overnight. There’s enough gel to top up your whitening, giving you up to 12 months of whiteness.

Over-the-counter gels and alternative whitening treatments use low-strength gels, making them much less effective.

With Smile White teeth whitening you also get custom whitening trays that are designed to hold gel evenly around each tooth. These clear BPA-free plastic retainers are created from a high-resolution scan of your teeth. This ensures that you only need to use a pea-sized amount of gel to get an all-round even whiteness across your teeth, making efficient use of your kit.

Be aware, adding more than the prescribed amount of gel will not speed up your whitening process and could affect your oral health.

How Teeth Whitening Gel Works

Many whitening treatments rely on abrasion to scrub surface stains from teeth. This can wear your enamel down over time and cause further issues. Others use UV light, blue LED light therapy or laser treatments to temporarily whiten teeth. Smile White is different and focused on long-lasting whitening.

This gel is held close to each tooth, allowing it to penetrate deep below the tooth’s surface to remove both surface and ingrained stains. A lengthy treatment gives the gel time to whiten more effectively, which is why we recommend wearing your trays overnight.

Depending on the original colour of your teeth, most people achieve the whitest smile in 4-7 days with nightly use.

Please note that professional whitening treatments can make your teeth sensitive after use. Use over the counter pain medication and sensitive tooth cleaning products to help reduce your symptoms.

Teeth Whitening Procedure

Getting beautiful white teeth fast is easy with Smile White. It starts with a consultation:

1. Get your oral health check and 3D scans of your teeth.
2. This information is passed to Smile White labs where your custom-fit whitening trays are created.
3. You'll receive your Smile White teeth whitening kit, which is posted to your home.
4. Instructions included. Contact your dentist if you have any questions as they’ll show you how to get the best results.
5. Keep your syringes in your refrigerator to maintain potency.
6. Use 2mm dots of gel into each tooth “pocket” on your whitening tray.
7. Put your trays into your mouth and push into place. Avoid biting down with your trays in place.
8. Wear your trays as required, ideally overnight to build on each night’s result. In 1-2 weeks, you should have naturally white teeth.
9. Clean your whitening trays after each use using a denture tablet or ultrasonic cleaner.
10. Brush and floss your teeth before use. Use a sensitive fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled brush to clean your teeth. Floss, picks or an interdental brush to clean between your teeth. Rinse with sensitive mouthwash.

Am I Eligible for Whitening?

To qualify for Smile White teeth whitening, you should have good oral health. Issues such as gum disease, gingivitis, cavities and damage will prevent treatments from being successful and can cause issues.

During your consultation, your dentist will give you an examination and oral health check to make sure you can proceed without problems.

Any issues discovered will be discussed and you will be offered additional treatments to fix them. This can increase costs and extend treatment times.

Maintaining White Teeth

While your whitening kit contains everything you need to keep your teeth white for up to 12 months, you can take additional steps to maintain the brightness of your teeth.

Avoid foods known to stain teeth

This includes tomato-based sauces such as pasta or curry andsome berries. If unavoidable, make sure you rinse your mouth with clean water every few bites.

Avoid drinks known to stain teeth

This includes coffee, tea, cola and berry juices.

Smoking or Vaping

These activities can quickly stain your teeth.

Maintain good oral hygiene

Make sure you brush and floss twice a day. Attend regular dental check-ups to make sure you have no issues that would limit your whitening.
