If you want a dazzling smile, teeth whitening is a great way to achieve this goal. A professional teeth whitening treatment under a dentist's supervision will give you safe, predictable results so you can enjoy a noticeably brighter, confidence-boosting smile.

Enlighten teeth whitening guarantees improvement to the whitest natural shade possible in most cases. Even better, this teeth whitening solution doesn’t interfere with your lifestyle. You will use tailor-made trays with the Enlighten teeth whitening gel to lighten your teeth at home, with minimal sensitivity and long-lasting whitening power.

What is teeth whitening?

It’s a cosmetic dentistry procedure that makes your teeth look brighter by removing stains. It lightens teeth that have darkened or discoloured over time due to various factors, including the consumption of staining drinks and foods.

Teeth whitening solutions use agents that penetrate the enamel to dissolve stains. Dentist-supervised treatments, such as Enlighten whitening, deliver predictable results safely and with minimal sensitivity for your enhanced comfort.

At our family-run Wallasey Village Dental Practice, we use Enlighten teeth whitening to remove stains and discolouration safely, with predictable results. In just 3 weeks, this system guarantees the whitest natural shade possible for your teeth.

Use cases for teeth whitening

Stains due to lifestyle and dietary choices

Tooth discolouration caused by dietary choices, such as staining food and beverages like coffee, tea, and berries, can benefit from a teeth whitening treatment. The procedure removes stains on the surface and can go deeper into the enamel to lift more stubborn discolouration, resulting in teeth that look much brighter.

Darkening from an earlier dental treatment

Teeth can also darken after a dental treatment, such as a root canal. In this case, the discolouration is not from an external source (such as staining drinks and food) and instead has an internal cause. A teeth whitening solution improves the appearance of teeth affected by an earlier procedure, restoring their healthy shade or lightening it even more. Your dentist will advise whether tooth whitening is suitable for your specific case.

Yellow teeth due to ageing

As we age, it’s normal for our teeth to look more yellow. It’s a natural part of ageing. Enlighten tooth whitening works to brighten teeth and revive a youthful, healthier-looking smile.

Preparation for a cosmetic treatment

Treatments such as composite bonding or veneers deliver better cosmetic enhancements if they are done after teeth whitening. Since whitening only works on natural teeth, it’s better to lighten their shade first so they can be matched to the custom-made tooth restorations. This makes the smile enhancement look more flawless.

Benefits you can get from Enlighten whitening

Guaranteed, natural-looking whitening

Enlighten teeth whitening guarantees to lighten the tooth shade in most cases to a B1 shade, which is the lightest shade that your teeth can reach while still looking natural. With consistent use of the treatment system, at the end of the treatment period, you will have a dazzling, naturally beautiful smile.

Fast results

This teeth whitening treatment requires just 3 weeks of your time to give you a brilliant smile. Typically, you will notice your tooth shade becoming lighter within 2 weeks, after which the final week focuses on sealing in the long-term whiteness.

Convenient

Enlighten whitening lets you achieve a brighter smile in the comfort of your home. After getting your custom-made trays and Enlighten whitening kit from us at Wallasey Village Dental Practice in Wirral, you can proceed with the treatment at home for 3 weeks. With this system, you can achieve visibly lighter teeth without multiple dental appointments.

Long-lasting

With Enlighten teeth whitening, you can enjoy your dazzling smile for several years. The effect can even last indefinitely if you maintain it by:

Practising good oral hygiene
Using the Enlighten white toothpaste, and
Doing top-ups as needed

Comfortable

The system uses custom-made teeth bleaching trays to ensure that the gel touches only your teeth and not the surrounding gum tissue. To keep you as comfortable as possible, the gel is specially formulated with a lower concentration of hydrogen peroxide to minimise sensitivity throughout the treatment.

No dietary restrictions

Unlike other teeth whitening options, Enlighten doesn’t limit your dietary intake. The treatment is formulated to resist stains, so you can continue enjoying coffee, tea, berries, and similar items without worries about getting discoloured teeth.

FAQs

Yes. This professional teeth whitening system needs to be done under a dentist’s supervision to ensure safety and effectiveness. Even if you do the treatment at home, you will still need to see your dentist, who will take impressions of your teeth to create your custom-made teeth bleaching trays.
Typically, the treatment is completed in 3 weeks. However, some complicated cases can take up to 8 weeks to finish. During your initial consultation, your dentist can give you a more specific timeline. The total length of treatment will depend on factors such as the severity of discolouration, the condition of your teeth, and your diligence in using the Enlighten teeth whitening gel.
No. This teeth whitening professional treatment doesn’t strip off or damage the enamel. It works by brightening the tooth shade without stripping the enamel, making it safe for regular use. Also, you don’t need to worry about tooth pain throughout the treatment because Enlighten whitening is formulated to cause minimal to no sensitivity.
In most cases, Enlighten whitening can brighten teeth to the whitest possible shade, which is VITA B1. You can achieve this level of teeth whitening after the treatment regardless of your original tooth shade, diet, or age.
Unfortunately, no. It only works for natural teeth, with the whitening gel removing stains on the tooth’s surface and deep within the enamel. It will not whiten dental crowns, composite fillings, or veneers. We recommend teeth whitening first before these cosmetic dentistry treatments, so the tooth shade can be adjusted for a result that looks very natural.
