TEETH WHITENING
Tooth Whitening (bleaching) is restoration of natural tooth shade. Restoration of natural underlying tooth shade is possible by removing surface stains (e.g. coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco).
Whitening your teeth can be done in the dental office or at your home using a bleaching kit provided by your dentist. The kit contains of custom made plastic trays that fit on your teeth and some whitening gel. Once home you simply put some of the gel material in the tray and wear it on your teeth 15-30 minutes a day, for a week or two. The gel material used to whiten teeth is Carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide. Carbamide peroxide may be less effective than hydrogen peroxide , but has fewer side effects.
Composite Bondings
BONDING IS ONE OF THE EASIEST AND LEAST EXPENSIVE COSMETIC DENTAL PROCEDURES.

Smile Makeover
SMILE MAKEOVER
