What is bleaching/tooth whitening?
You may be able to lighten your teeth by bleaching. Your dentist will first need to check you are suitable; some people may not benefit from bleaching or may have too sensitive teeth. If ok to go ahead you can either have your teeth bleached by your dentist at the surgery or they may make you thin gum shield type trays which you take home and fill with a bleaching gel and wear when convenient. The benefit of bleaching at home with the gum shields is that you can control how much you lighten your teeth and it is also cheaper in the long term as you only need to buy more bleaching gel from your dentist to top up in the future.
Your dentist may be able to show you examples of teeth they have bleached in the past - don’t be afraid to ask.
