How have my teeth become discoloured?
There are several different reasons that your teeth may change colour. The most likely reason for discoloration is due to certain foods and beverages that will change your teeth’s colour over time. These include red wine, coffee, tea and juice.

Smoking will also produce brown and yellow pigments on your teeth. Another reason why teeth may become this colour is due to age. The enamel of our teeth tends to get thinner as we get older and the yellow identity tends to show more.

Occasionally discoloration can be caused by medication as well such as antihistamines and antibiotics.

How does teeth whitening work?
Teeth whitening is a bleaching process that is achieved using either hydrogen peroxide or carbide peroxide.

A reaction takes place on your tooth that breaks down all of the ...
... stained agents that are present, essentially bleaching your teeth to make them whiter. You can whiten your teeth in a number of convenient ways, the most popular are In-Chair teeth whitening here at Dental at Joondalup and using our At-Home Teeth Whitening Kits.

What happens during my whitening consultation?
When you book your appointment, please tell the front office coordinator that you’re interested in a home whitening treatment. At your consultation, a dentist will comprehensively analyse your teeth and then advise you on what will be the best treatment for you.

If there is any calcified debris (known as calculus) or too much bacteria on your teeth, the whitening kit will not give you effective results. Therefore quite often a cleaning appointment is done prior to issuing your whitening trays to ensure that you get the best results.

How quickly can I get my whitening kit?
Here at Dental at Joondalup, we want to make you a custom designed whitening tray that will fit for your mouth only. Given this information, we usually cannot issue whitening trays at the first appointment.

If your mouth is healthy we are able to take impressions for your teeth during your consultation appointment and then issue you with your home kit as early as the next day!

For certain individuals who are coming from the country or are in Perthor Joondalup from a different city, we may be able to accommodate the same day home whitening kit fabrication.

I’ve got my home whitening kit how do I use it?
Your dentist will advise you on the frequency and length of your home whitening kit when you collect it from us.

When you are ready to whiten your teeth at home, please follow these instructions as a general rule:

brush your teeth prior to using the home whitening kit
remove your whitening gel from the fridge and place a teardrop size of tooth whitening gel into your bleaching trays
gently place the trays over your teeth and clear up all the excess bleach
when the prescribed time for your formulation is up, take out your trays and give them a good clean with cold water and brush your teeth
Our take home formula is made up of a unique blend of ingredients that helps protect enamel and reduce the sensitivity.

What’s the cost of home whitening?
The fee for take-home whitening starts from $295. This fee includes a dental professional assisting you with a TGA approved whitening agent, and does not include any health insurance rebates. Quite often your health insurer will pay towards your treatment and you should contact us to see if you will be eligible for any rebates.
