Professional teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments there is. Practices in Wrelton tailor the concentration to your natural shade rather than a one-size-fits-all gel. The timescale ranges from a single 90-minute visit to a fortnight of overnight tray wear.
Tooth Sensitivity and Aftercare
Sensitivity is the most common side effect — usually a sharp, transient twinge with air or cold that settles within 24–48 hours. A sensitivity toothpaste used for two weeks beforehand noticeably reduces it.
Whitened enamel re-stains fastest in the first couple of days, so ease off coffee, tea and red wine. With sensible maintenance the shade holds for one to two years before a quick refresh.
How Tooth Colour Is Measured
Dental professionals in Wrelton use the VITA classical shade guide to record tooth colour, running from A1 (lightest) to C4 (darkest). Most natural teeth sit between A2 and B3, and professional whitening typically lifts 4–8 grades.
Yellow-toned staining lifts most readily; grey and intrinsic staining (antibiotics, fluorosis) far less so. Existing restorations stay the same shade, so front-tooth crowns or fillings may need separate planning.
