Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening Treatment in Banbury
Teeth whitening is now one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry treatments in the UK. Teeth whitening is an affordable, efficient and easy way to transform the appearance of your smile. At 41 South Bar, Banbury Dental Practice, we pride ourselves on offering high-quality general dental treatments and facial aesthetic treatments that leave patients with increased confidence and transformed smiles.
What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening gradually removes surface stains from your teeth, resulting in a brighter, whiter and cleaner appearance. There are several different ways you can get your teeth professionally whitened, including:
- Laser teeth whitening – otherwise known as power whitening, is the fastest way to whiter teeth. A dentist will shield your gums and coat your teeth in a bleaching solution containing hydrogen peroxide. A laser is then applied to your teeth to make your teeth brighter and whiter.
- Philips Zoom – while the Philips Zoom method is similar to laser teeth whitening instead of a laser, an LED lamp is used to accelerate the bleaching agent on your teeth. This method can take several 60-minute sessions.
- Professional teeth bleaching kits – custom made bleaching trays are made using a mould of your teeth. The moulds contain a whitening gel and form around your teeth. Your dentist will then instruct you on how often and how long you should leave the bleaching trays on your teeth.
Thanks to the increase in popularity of having pristine teeth, there has been an increase in teeth whitening solutions appearing on the market, including at-home treatments, toothpaste and professional dentistry treatments. When looking into teeth whitening treatments, it is important to ensure you are opting for solutions that won’t cause any unwanted side effects, such as teeth sensitivity or enamel damage. Which is why we recommend always opting for professional teeth whitening solutions from your dentist over at-home kits.

Professional Teeth Whitening Vs At Home Kits – Which Is Better?
Lots of people nowadays desire a brilliantly white smile and there are many at-home solutions available for people to try. However, at-home tooth whitening kits or treatments are not as successful, long-lasting or safe as getting your teeth whitened by a dentist.
Most at-home tooth whitening solutions can be purchased over the counter or online and contain the bleaching agent hydrogen peroxide. In your at-home tooth whitening kit, the hydrogen peroxide content is strictly regulated and is often very low whether you are using toothpaste, bleaching trays or strips.
Not only is the bleaching agent, carbon peroxide, in at-home kits reduced if not applied correctly, but if they are used for a long period of time, they can cause damage to your teeth and gums. When a dentist whitens your teeth, they take proper precautions to ensure your gums are protected and your teeth aren’t over exposed to the solutions.
