Cosmetic Dentistry *
Tooth Whitening per arch £420
This is illegal if performed without dentist supervision (see General Dental Council advice leaflet here)
We use 10% carbamide peroxide (equivalent to 6% hydrogen peroxide), which is specifically formulated for this purpose and manufactured to pharmaceutical standards. It is sourced from a highly reputable UK based dental supply company.
* I suggest you read our patient information on cosmetic dentistry.
Whitening & Bonding
Where possible we like to retain as much natural tooth tissue as possible - and this is especially important in younger people. The case below involved tooth whitening, the removal of a previous restoration, and then the addition of white filling material. We slightly roughened the tooth enamel with air abrasion technology to improve bond strength, but did not 'drill away' any tooth. Although these restorations will need maintenance in the form of periodic re polishing, and surface replacement, this is relatively easy to do and the underlying natural teeth are intact.
The cost of this type of care is case specific. We normally like to create a set of diagnostic models, make any proposed changes to these first, then 'try in' the result in the patient's mouth. Once we are both happy with the planned result we will provide an itemised treatment plan including the full cost.
Bonding to teeth like this generally takes between around 60 minutes per tooth (depending upon complexity), and cost from £210, less than half the cost of our lab fabricated porcelain veneers.
