Have you ever asked yourself how adrenaline sports competitions like extreme surfing or MMA fighting can possibly be held safely? Or how about the same question about some of the mind-bending stunts you see at the movie theatre; how is it possible they allow such dangerous feats? The answer is quite simple: those performers are closely supervised by professionals who know how to do the job while minimising risk.
Teeth Whitening with the Dentists @ Belmore Is Supervised
Professional teeth whitening follows this same rule. Technology has provided treatments that can achieve dazzling results. But if misused, the compounds used in teeth whitening can cause problems. To prevent this, Dr Ibrahim's dental team will clearly advise you on using your whitening system, how long to wear an activated tray and how long you should wait between treatments. Following our directions will help you avoid tooth sensitivity or gum irritation.
Dr Ibrahim can also monitor your teeth at routine check-ups to determine if teeth whitening is an effective treatment or if you should consider other cosmetic dental options. For example, we can place a dental veneer composed of composite or porcelain over a stained tooth surface to conceal it completely. Your tooth will look like new because your veneer is custom-made to fit your tooth and match its colour.
Does Teeth Whitening Weaken Teeth over Time?
This is a common myth. If you follow our instructions and maintain your regular dental routine, then teeth whitening with Dr Ibrahim and the Dentists @ Belmore does not weaken teeth over time.
