Say Goodbyeto Stained Teeth

Why do I have yellow or dark teeth?

Day to day activities such as drinking tea, coffee, colas, red wine and smoking tobacco can cause undue stress and strain on the colour of your teeth.

If you are not happy with the discolouration of your teeth, we have a solution! Tooth whitening!

Home Whitening

Home teeth whitening is cheaper and it helps you get a better result with the new advanced materials that have been invented.

Generally you spend about an hour a day for about 7 to 14 days and your teeth will be whiter & brighter.

Office Whitening

Office teeth whitening (sometime called power bleaching) generally take about an hour to hour and a half of your time.

Examples are Pola Office, Opalescence, Zoom, Laser Smile, Rembrandt, Brite Smile, Smart Bleach, OpusWhite.

All have the same relative result.

Deep Bleaching

Involves 3 stages

One visit to the practice for priming your teeth

2 weeks of special home whitening that you wear overnight

Then the deep bleaching in the final visit in the practice with Kor Whitening

How often can IWhiten My Teeth?

Current research shows that whitening should be done in regularly if you want to maintain a white bright smile.

This is where you have your initial teeth whitening procedure and a booster teeth whitening kit can be used to every three to six months to maintain the natural look and feel.

Is tooth whitening for everybody?

The last point to remember is that not everybody benefits from tooth whitening & therefore other solutions may be more appropriate such as Porcelain Veneers.

Are there any prerequisites to teeth whitening?

The most important thing though to consider is that you have a very healthy mouth before you carry out these procedures:

There are two conditions you should be concerned about

Gum disease like gingivitis or periodontal disease. This is caused by a collection of tartar on your teeth.

The whitening gel will whiten the tartar and damage your gums if you have any of these conditions and when in the future you get your teeth cleaned the teeth underneath will still be stained

Tooth decay. The whitening gel can creep into the nerve of your tooth causing severe pain if you have tooth decay

Therefore it is highly recommended that you have had a checkup done in the last three months before you have whitening done.

No. 1: In-Surgery Whitening

Using the latest blue light technology and whitening solution, we can whiten your teeth in as little as an hour!

Safe and very effective, your teeth will be between 6 to 8 shades lighter.

We also offer a take-home kit to top up the initial whitening treatment (this has an added cost to you office treatment) You will be given instructions and advice on the best time to use this and the continuing results you can expect.

Whitening your teeth will provide an instant lift to your smile to give you that extra confidence to show them off!

What actually happens with in-surgery whitening?


Your gums and lips are protected with barrier materials and a ‘before’ picture is taken.

The whitening gel is applied on your teeth, and the blue light activates it.
 You relax.

After three 8 to 20-minute cycles (just over an hour), the procedure is completed and an ‘after’ picture is taken.

You rinse. You smile.

Wow!

How white will my teeth get?


Clinical studies show that in-surgery whitening procedures deliver up to eight shades lighter and even higher for individuals with darker teeth.

Results will vary as the starting points may be different and everyone’s teeth respond differently.

During the consultation, we will go over what you can expect for your individual situation.

What if I have sensitive teeth?


About 10% of our clients may experience a dull ache following the procedure.

Taking an analgesic almost always resolves the discomfort. It is best to avoid hot and cold drinks for the first 24 hours.

We will provide you with an information sheet on how we can help you reduce the sensitivity as much as possible.

Does it work with crowns, veneers or bonding?


In-surgery whitening treatment cannot change the colour of your crowns, veneers or bonding.

We will recommend the best course of action if we are whitening your teeth and are fitting crowns, veneers or bonding.

How long does it last?


On average, it lasts for 2-3 years, but the long-term results depend primarily on the individual.

Certain habits, such as the use of tobacco products, drinking a lot of coffee, tea, dark soft drinks and infrequent visits to the dentist for regular cleanings etc. can work against the results.

How do I keep my teeth white?


Regular professional care can help maintain the whiteness for years.

Some people may prefer to have the whitening procedure carried out every few years to maintain the whiteness or even simply topping up the whitening treatment with a take-home mini whitening kit.

Why do dentists charge differently?

Prices vary between various dentists based on

The type of material that has been supplied (hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide)

The concentration of the material provided (2% all the way to 35%)

The number of tubes that has been provided for home whitening

The number of cycles in office whitening ( one cycle to 4 cycles)

Don’t be fooled with cheap prices. There are always hidden charges when you actually get the procedure done.

Also it is always safer to have a dentist do your whitening as in the dental practice we protect your gums and other tissues such as cheeks and lips from being burned.

People who claim to do whitening and are not dental professionals can cause serious damage.

There have been multiple cases of severe burns with whitening when not carried out by a dentist.

Tooth Sensitivity

During the first 24 hours following whitening many patients experience sensitivity.

This sensitivity is usually mild unless your teeth are normally sensitive.

With in-office whitening, this sensitivity will usually subside within 1-2 days.

With take-home whitening, it may be necessary to reduce the number of hours you wear the tray or stop using it for a short time to resolve the sensitivity.

However, if your teeth are normally sensitive, whitening may make your teeth much more sensitive for an extended period of time.

Under these circumstances, you may choose to delay whitening until we are able to complete desensitisation procedures.

Gum Irritation

Whitening may cause temporary inflammation of your gums.

With In office whitening, this can be the result of very small amount of gel leaking under the gum protection.

A burning sensation in your gums may also occur.

This is a minor problem and will subside within a few days. With take-home whitening, irritation can result from using the whitening tray too many hours when you first start whitening or using the tray too many hours in a row without a break.

It may be necessary for you to reduce the number of hours you are wearing the tray or stop using it for a short time to resolve these gum problems.

The tray may also overlap your gums, allowing the gel to contact your gums for an extended period.

This problem can be resolved by returning to this office so that we can trim the tray to a position slightly short of your gums.

Sore Throat

Most take-home whitening gel is very thick and will not run down your throat if you overload the tray with gel.

However, if your gel is lower in viscosity, the excess may go down your throat and cause soreness.

This soreness will subside in several days. In the event that you feel gel in your mouth or throat, spit out the excess gel instead of swallowing it.

Leaking Fillings or Cavities

Most whitening is indicated for the outside of the teeth (unless you already had a root canal).

However, if you have any fillings that are leaking and the gel gets into the inside of the teeth, damage to the nerves of the tooth could result.

In this case, the fillings need to be redone prior to the whitening.

In addition, open cavities can also allow gel to reach the nerves of the teeth.

All cavities should also be filled before whitening.

Stained Teeth: Causes, Prevention, and Treatment

A bright, healthy smile can demonstrate confidence and make those around you warm to you. But if your teeth are lacklustre, yellow, or even stained, you might not feel so good about sharing your smile. 

If your smile has lost its sparkle, you’re not alone. Many people experience discolouration and staining, and there are several potential causes. 

While brushing your teeth alone won’t bring them back to being perfectly white, there are other ways. 

In this guide, we’ll look at the causes of stained and discoloured teeth. We’ll also discuss how we can treat them and equip you with the know-how to ensure your smile stays bright. 

What Causes Discoloured or Stained Teeth?

There are several potential causes for stains and discolouration, some are preventable, others are unavoidable. 

Stains affecting the outer layer of your teeth are called extrinsic stains. This type of stain is often caused by diet. Common culprits for causing these stains include dark berries, coffee, tea, red wine, spicy food, and cola. Smoking can also leave extrinsic stains. 

When the stains penetrate the tooth, they can affect the dentin. This is the layer below the dental enamel. Potential causes for intrinsic stains include dental trauma, infection, and certain medications. Stains from smoking can become intrinsic. 

As we age, our dental enamel thins. This causes the darker-coloured dentin below the surface to show through, giving your once-white teeth a yellow appearance.

Other potential causes for discolouration include genetics and certain cancer treatments. 

Can You Tell the Cause of Stained Teeth By the Colour?

Discoloured teeth could turn yellow, brown, purple, or grey. You may also develop white or black spots on your teeth. 

Yellow teeth occur through ageing, diet, and poor oral hygiene. Smoking can turn your teeth brown; however, some brown marks may be tooth decay.  If your teeth are a shade of purple, you likely enjoy red wine. 

Grey teeth indicate that your nerve endings have died. This typically occurs as a result of dental infection or trauma. White spots are fluorosis, which is usually from consuming high levels of fluoride as a child. Black spots are caused by severe decay. 

How Are Stained and Discoloured Teeth Treated?

There are several ways that we can treat stained and discoloured teeth, including whitening treatments, composite bonding, and dental veneers. 

Teeth Whitening

A professional teeth whitening treatment can remove extrinsic and intrinsic stains. This safe, dentist-led treatment uses powerful whitening gels to lift stains and bring your teeth to a natural and healthy shade of white. 

You can undergo the treatments we provide in stages from the comfort of your home. We’ll provide you with custom whitening trays that apply the gel directly to your teeth. Using the trays and gel for around two weeks will improve the appearance of your smile. 

Composite Bonding

Sometimes called cosmetic bonding, this treatment uses tooth-coloured resin to fix several dental defects simultaneously. We can use this resin to cover any stains and discolouration. 

We begin by applying the resin to your teeth and blending it in until it looks natural. Next, we use a special light to harden the resin, leaving you with a restored tooth. Composite bonding is quick and painless. 

Dental Veneers

We can also use dental veneers to cover stained and discoloured teeth. Veneers are fine, life-like porcelain shells that coat the fronts and sides of your teeth. Once in place, they give your smile a bright, healthy appearance. 

How Can You Prevent Stained Teeth?

There are several ways to prevent staining and discolouration. Cutting out all food and drinks that cause stains isn’t always an option; however, you can limit the amount of them you consume and brush your teeth immediately after meals. 

Improve your oral hygiene by using a soft toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste to brush your teeth thoroughly at least twice daily, floss, and use mouthwash. 

Drinking plenty of water can help reduce staining. If you’re a smoker, talk to us or your GP about ways to quit, and visit our clinic regularly for a checkup and hygiene visit.

so we all know the main characters of course... but these two I really like in the books- for very different reasons

[nixie-deangel]

okay but retired from the Navy Bradley, who's let his curls grow long and has a bit of a tummy and isn't as defined as he was before/during/right after the mission meeting Jake again about a year later (so he's worked through a bit of his issues but not all of them but also having come to the realization he's actually been in love with Jake for more than a decade), who's now a flight instructor in North Island and smiling all soft and shy while Jake looks struck dumb, boy's walking into shit because he just can not get over how good Bradley looks now and is internally blue screening because he wants to climb Bradley like a try and falling through floors and windows as he comes to the startling realization he's been in love with Bradley for more than a decade.

Just. Soft Bradley, who's let himself go and worked on himself and lets himself come back into Jake's life to see if the spark is there on Jake's side.

And Jake constantly going through it because he's speed running coming to all these realizations about himself and Bradley and what he wants for his life and what he wants for them.

[piss-stained-jorts]

saw some clown on here whining about other people not liking kissing and reducing it to the gross parts and that it’s indicative of a society that fears flesh (which yes it does but that’s not how to go about making the point) and blah blah fucking blah

anyway instead of being a salty bitch and getting into an internet argument with some stranger I’m gonna be a Big Adult and use my rage and spite to remind all of you that

hating kissing is okay, you’re not weird or broken or a prude,

whether you’re asexual or allosexual it’s fine if you despise swapping spit with another human being, it doesn’t mean you love them any less, and you’re FINE. love is expressed in different ways. humans celebrate each other differently, love comes in different forms, it’s fine if you only want to kiss people you’re close to or not at all or literally anything in-between, and shaming people for hating an act of intimacy is fucked up. show love how you want. enjoy the company of others how you want. you don’t have to see kissing as anything more than the gross parts, and “reducing” it to that or whatever is just as okay as romanticizing it as something more. it’s just some ritual humans made up, and we’re allowed to feel literally any fucking way in the world about it.

live your life. be free.

dear fish, hello dear fish, how are you doing this fine day?

i would like your input on nikto's teeth, do you think he has sharp/pointed canines teeth? what do you think about the size of his lateral incisors relative to his central incisors or the general shape of his teeth in general, are they more slender or are they more squarish? are his bottom incisors crooked? do you think his dental arch is wide and how many teeth do you think one could see if he were to smile? i think someone mentioned about him smiling, looking like a dog bearing its teeth, was it you? how yellow are his teeth? and are there tobacco and tea stains? when do you think was the last time he had his teeth cleaned at the clinic?

i should go to bed, have a good day dear fish. i hope you are well. <3

My dearest, hear me out on Nikto with the bluntest teeth at the front. Blunt enough that if he bites down it bruises instead of cuts at the front. Canines that have the shape in between a u and a v, not too sharp yet just purely blunt.

And yet these canines can't even cut through skin because they're short, overlooked by flat teeth. Or what would be if he hasn't been fucked over in the face a few hundred times. Square alignment of his teeth that make his smile look more like a grin when he flashes them. Dents in the corner where the right is just a bit more dented in than the left. His teeth are proportioned in a way that makes his eyes look a bit larger.

Its clear to anyone that his central incisors are a bit pushed back, making an almost clean angle if it wasn't for the roundness of his teeth. The left one a bit more forward then the other. If he lets you look inside his mouth it smells like rot. An embodiment of him.

Tongue scraped and cracked, greying and a bit white. If you recommend him to brush his yellowish teeth more he'll just glare at you. Muttering that he doesn't have time, just get over with the appointment. It barely changes anything when you clean them. Though he is an easier patient than the rest, willing to keep still when you floss his gums until they bleed.

Its also far easier to clean when the tears on his face make it easier for you to reach in there. Seeing what you're cleaning on each individual tooth. Not as smooth as the teeth you normally see and yet, they're healthy enough.

"So when was the last time you had your teeth cleaned again?"

"First time."

"...i hope to be seeing you by june."

"Da, I can do that."

Tooth decay. The whitening gel can creep into the nerve of your tooth causing severe pain if you have tooth decay

Therefore it is highly recommended that you have had a checkup done in the last three months before you have whitening done.

Most of the bleaching gels available are exactly the same.

There is very little difference from one dentist to another, because the gels are formulated by the relatively the same chemical.

The only difference between different brands is the concentration of the gels.

The higher the concentration of the gel the faster and better the bleaching process.

However, the downside is the more sensitive your teeth get during the bleaching process.

You should remember that the sensitivity is only temporary.

Most of the bleaching gels available at retail stores are of very poor quality.

They’ve been sitting in a warehouse or on a truck for who knows how long – and, because they are designed to be “low cost” (with low cost being sometimes the only consideration), they have very low concentrations of active ingredients.

The process involved in home whitening is as follows.

We need to make sure you teeth have had a good scale and clean in the last six months.

If not then we need to get them cleaned.

You wouldn’t want to whiten your tartar or calculus would you?

Impressions/moulds are taken to make special trays that fit your mouth, the gel is then placed in the trays and the tray inserted in your mouth for a set time we have suggested.

Generally the higher the concentration, the shorter the period of time per day that you leave the gel in your mouth.

As you whiten your teeth, carbamide peroxide is broken down and oxygen enters the enamel and dentin.

This bleaches out the discoloured areas. The structure of the tooth is not changed & the colour of the tooth is simply made lighter.

Why do dentists charge differently?

Prices vary between various dentists based on

The type of material that has been supplied (hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide)

The concentration of the material provided (2% all the way to 35%)

The number of tubes that has been provided for home whitening

The number of cycles in office whitening ( one cycle to 4 cycles)
