Shine a light on what a dentist in Teddington could do for you
Take the leap
We are a dentist in Teddington whose primary aim is to provide our patients with a comfortable, tranquil and relaxing environment in which they feel both welcomed and included throughout their service. We are a dental practice who takes the time to connect with every one of our patients, and aims to develop a personal, human relationship with them rather than take the clinical, traditional approach. We’ve found that over the years, adopting a more personal approach means that our patients generally feel more comfortable and less anxious throughout every step of their treatment. We aim to find the treatment that is best suited to your individual needs and dental situation, as every patient is different.
Cosmetic solutions
We are a dentist in Teddington who provides cosmetic dentistry solutions for our patients, covering a whole range of different procedures. These span from the completely non-invasive to a complete remodeling of a patient’s teeth. Cosmetic dentistry is now one of the most popular areas of dentistry and is sought out by patients of all ages. One of the most widely requested forms of this method of treatment is cosmetic teeth whitening. You have undoubtedly seen or heard of teeth whitening at some point or other, as it has actually existed for thousands of years. Contemporary teeth whitening however is something which has had a massive resurgence over the past few years.
Whitening options
At Kirby Dental, we offer our patients with an in-practice whitening kit which can also be taken home. The aim of this form of treatment is to rid the patient’s teeth of any marks, stains or discoloration and leave them with a gleaming smile. You have probably seen some of the countless online services which offer you home-whitening kits at a far discounted rate. However, we thoroughly recommend that our patients only carry out home-whitening if their kits have been sourced from a reliable means such as through a dentist. The reason for this is because a large amount of these online kits include a dangerous amount of hydrogen-peroxide, as well as other potentially unsafe chemicals and can have a lasting, damaging impact on the oral health of those who use them. The kits which we provide here at Kirby Dental however are perfectly safe and reputable.
How do they work?
If you feel that your smile could benefit from the power of professional whitening, then the first step would be to speak to one of our cosmetic dentistry specialists. Then they would create for you a mould of your tooth structure, from which a unique retainer would be created. You would then be given this retainer to take home, along with an amount of a perfectly safe, hydrogen-peroxide based bleaching gel. The patient would then apply an amount of this gel to the interior of the retainer and wear it. Over the following 14-28 days, the patient would then watch as their smile becomes visible brighter and whiter until they have a gleaming set of teeth.
