Teeth whitening with Crescent Dental

We understand the importance of feeling confident in your smile. It's common for factors like certain types of food, drinks and smoking to gradually stain your teeth, but there's no need to let that dampen your smile! At our Swansea dental practice we use White Dental Beauty to provide a safe and hassle-free at-home teeth whitening solution.

Whiten your smile at home

White Dental Beauty's at-home teeth whitening system offers a convenient and effective solution for brightening your smile from the comfort of your own home. With easy-to-use trays and professional-grade whitening gel, you can achieve noticeable results without the hassle of frequent dental visits. 

The double whitening action of the treatment removes surface staining and lightens your teeth from within. We can tailor the treatment to your lifestyle too, with products ranging from fast acting with an application time of just 30 minutes a day, to gels that can be worn overnight.

There is also an extra mild formula designed for patients with sensitive teeth, ensuring everyone can enjoy a brighter smile comfortably.

Why choose White Dental Beauty teeth whitening with Crescent Dental?

Control your shade

Enjoy the flexibility of at-home teeth whitening, allowing you to reach your desired shade at your own pace. Noticeable improvements often appear within the first week. For those seeking a dazzlingly white smile, continuing the treatment for a second week can yield even brighter results. You can also save any unused whitening gel for touch-ups later, giving you control over maintaining your bright smile over time.

Your journey to whiter teeth

The active ingredient in the whitening formula makes it easier for your teeth to absorb oxygen. This helps break down stain molecules, leaving you with whiter, brighter teeth.

What happens at a dental check-up?

During your dental check-up, our dentist takes a thorough look at your teeth, gums, and soft tissues, looking out for any signs of problems such as swelling or decay. We will also conduct an oral cancer screening for your peace of mind.

We may take small X-rays to help uncover any underlying dental issues. Depending on the results of this assessment, your dentist may suggest a tailored treatment plan to restore your oral health, or simply book you in for your next routine check-up!

Your dental check-up includes:

Visual examinations of your teeth, gums, and mouth
Oral cancer screening
X-rays and digital photographs to assess your overall dental health
Discussion of an ongoing treatment plan, if required

Oral cancer screening

Oral cancer can develop in various areas of the mouth and the earlier it is detected, the better. Mouth cancer screening is an essential part of your dental check-up at Crescent Dental. 

This screening involves a comprehensive review of your oral health history, a thorough examination of your mouth, and a detailed scan to identify any lumps or lesions, helping to detect any signs of trouble early.

Frequently asked questions about Crescent Dental.

How long do the effects of teeth whitening last?

Following some simple maintenance guidelines post-treatment means you’ll be able to enjoy your white smile for months. To extend the whitening results, you should follow your dentist's instructions for wearing custom-made whitening trays at home. Additionally, practising good oral hygiene habits such as daily brushing, minimising consumption of heavily pigmented foods and beverages, and rinsing your mouth thoroughly with water after meals can help your teeth stay whiter for longer.

How often can I whiten my teeth?

The frequency of teeth whitening treatments depends on various factors, including the strength of the whitening products used and the sensitivity of your teeth. It's generally recommended to wait at least several months between treatments to allow your teeth to stabilise and minimise the risk of sensitivity.

Am I a good candidate for teeth whitening?

Teeth whitening is commonly regarded as a safe and efficient procedure for the majority of patients, yet it may not be suitable if you have specific dental conditions or sensitivities. Our team of dentists in Swansea can assess your individual situation to determine whether teeth whitening is a suitable choice for you.

Can I whiten my teeth if I have dental restorations like crowns or veneers?

While teeth whitening primarily affects natural tooth enamel, it may not alter the colour of dental restorations such as crowns or veneers. If feasible, we suggest undergoing a whitening treatment before receiving crowns or veneers. This way, your restorations can be matched to your newly whitened teeth for a natural appearance.
