If you are self-conscious about your smile due to discoloured teeth, teeth whitening can help. Stains can be caused by eating and drinking certain foods and beverages like coffee, tea, cola, wine, berries and more, as well as from tobacco use. Yellowing can also occur as part of the natural aging process as the outer enamel thins and the underlying dentin becomes more apparent.
To reverse this, we use powerful peroxide-based whitening products at Keswick Dental. Peroxides, such as carbamide peroxide, have the unique ability to “break” the chemical bonds that hold stains onto your teeth. In turn, this “bleaches” the stain away, restoring the natural, bright color of your enamel.
