What is Remineralisation?

Simply put, it's the process of restoring minerals to your teeth that have been lost due to factors such as acidic foods, drinks, and plaque build-up.

The Science

When the pH level in your mouth drops, it becomes more acidic and can cause the enamel to lose minerals through demineralisation. However, when the pH level in your mouth rises again and becomes less acidic, the remineralisation process begins.

Remineralising Diet

Reducing consumption of sugary or acidic foods, drinks, maintaining good oral hygiene habits, and introducing fat soluble vitamins, probiotics and prebiotics to help balance our microbiomes.

About Us

Our vision at the whitening clinic is to provide our clients with not only a safe and effective teeth whitening experience but also a holistic approach to their oral health care. We believe that a healthy smile is more than just white teeth; it's about promoting healthy gums, fresh breath, and overall oral wellness.

Oral hygiene's impact on overall health

There are many links between oral health and overall health issues.

Health

Heart Disease

Did you know that your oral health is linked to your overall health? Studies have shown that individuals with gum disease are at a higher risk of developing heart disease compared to those with healthy gums. The bacteria responsible for gum disease can enter your bloodstream and contribute to the build-up of plaque in your arteries. That's why it's crucial to take good care of your oral health to promote your overall wellbeing.

Health

Diabetes

If you have diabetes, you should pay extra attention to your oral health. Studies have found that people with diabetes are more likely to develop gum disease, and that gum disease can make it harder to control blood sugar levels. This is because the inflammation associated with gum disease can affect insulin sensitivity, making it more difficult for the body to use insulin effectively. By taking good care of your teeth and gums, you can help manage your diabetes and improve your overall health.

Health

Respiratory Infections

Poor oral hygiene can cause an overgrowth of bacteria in the mouth, which can then be inhaled into the lungs and cause respiratory infections such as pneumonia. This is particularly true for individuals with weakened immune systems. Studies have shown that maintaining good oral health can reduce the risk of respiratory infections and improve overall respiratory health.

Health

Pregnancy Complications

Gum disease during pregnancy can pose a significant risk to both the mother and the baby. Studies have found that pregnant women with gum disease are more likely to deliver prematurely or give birth to a baby with low birth weight. This is because the bacteria that cause gum disease can trigger inflammation throughout the body, including in the uterus, which can lead to early contractions and preterm birth.

Health

Rheumatoid Arthritis

Some research indicates that the inflammation caused by gum disease may trigger an inflammatory response in other parts of the body, such as the joints, leading to rheumatoid arthritis. Additionally, individuals with rheumatoid arthritis are more prone to developing gum disease due to their weakened immune system and chronic inflammation.

Health

Kidney Disease

The bacteria that cause gum disease can enter the bloodstream and contribute to inflammation throughout the body, which may damage the kidneys over time. Additionally, people with chronic kidney disease may experience oral health issues due to changes in the composition of saliva and immune function, which can lead to an increased risk of gum disease and other oral health problems.

Health

Dementia

Good oral health is essential for overall well-being, and research has shown that there may be a connection between poor oral health and an increased risk of developing dementia. Several studies have suggested that gum disease, which is a common and preventable condition, could be linked to the development of dementia in later life.

Health

The Conclusion

It's clear that good oral health is an important part of overall health and wellbeing, and regular dental check-ups, brushing, flossing, and a healthy diet can help prevent many oral health problems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s causing my tooth discolouration?

Tooth discolouration can be caused by 3 main factors; Extrinsic staining; caused from food beverages and tobacco. Intrinsic staining; within the tooth that makes them appear grey, causes include certain medication, tooth decay, tooth trauma, too much fluoride and genetics. Ageing; as we age we brush away the enamel on the outside of the tooth causing the dentin within the tooth to shine through causing the teeth to look yellow. Cosmetic whitening is best for reversing the extrinsic factors of discolouration.  

Avoiding staining foods and some medications will help prevent teeth from further discolouration and of course, if the discolouration is caused by an underlying dental issue, this will need to be addressed prior to whitening.

Is teeth whitening right for me?

Not everyone is suitable for whitening treatments. If you have an oral health condition such as tooth decay or gum disease, this should be treated as a priority before arranging a cosmetic treatment. You may also not be eligible if you have sensitive teeth or gums, a medical condition, you're pregnant or you're under 16 years of age.

How does the treatment work?

A full treatment takes approximately 1.5 hours to complete.  After a consultation with your Whitening Clinic technician you will be taken to a comfortable reclining lounge and gum protector will be applied to protect the gums from the Hydrogen Peroxide (HP) gel.  Once this is set by a curing light the HP (6%) is applied to the teeth.  The HP is activated by a LED blue light which is set for 3 x 25 minute intervals to allow additional HP to be added to the teeth during the process.  Once complete, the gel is removed from the teeth, you will rinse with water and the treatment is complete.  It must be remembered that bleaching teeth is like bleaching hair.  The first time you bleach hair from dark brown/black to blonde, the process takes time to break through the barrier.  This is the same process with teeth.  At the Whitening Clinic we recommend two treatments for first time whiteners to ensure a great result.  

What are the risks and side effects and will I have any sensitivity?

Some people find that their teeth and gums feel more sensitive for a few days after teeth whitening, especially during in-chair treatments at a dentist. At The Whitening Clinic we use a low level of peroxide ( 6% Hydrogen Peroxide ) applied for a longer period (1.5 hrs) which cause little to no sensitivity in most clients.  Generally the only clients who experience sensitivity are those who have recently had braces removed.  Practicing dentists use 35% Hydrogen Peroxide over a shorter period of time in the chair, causing greater sensitivity in clients. If a whitening treatment isn't performed correctly, you could risk injury or uneven results. If the bleaching agent comes into contact with your gums or other soft tissues in your mouth, there may be a risk of chemical burns.

Generally, it’s best for pregnant women and new mothers to avoid teeth whitening - chemicals from the treatment can enter the placenta and breast milk.

How white will my teeth get?

It’s best to have realistic expectations before undergoing any whitening treatment. After consultation with your technician they will be able to explain what you can expect.​

Not all whitening treatments are equally effective on all people, and not all teeth will whiten to the same degree. Teeth whitening can change a tooth's colour by several shades, meaning teeth that are more stained or discoloured won't whiten to the same degree as teeth that were whiter originally.

I have a big event - how far in advance should I get whitening?

Teeth whitening is a great way to prepare for weddings and other social events where you want to look your best. At the Whitening Clinic we recommend you have your whitening treatment at least one week prior to your event date to ensure any patchiness that whitening can produce is resolved.

How long will the treatment last?

Teeth whitening isn't permanent, but how long the effects last will depend on the type of treatment you have and how well you look after your teeth afterwards.​

In most cases, teeth whitening can last from six months up to two years. There's more chance of your teeth staying whiter for longer if you avoid smoking and staining food and drinks such as tea, coffee and beetroot.  The first time you have your teeth whitened however, you can loose up to 40% of the whiteness within four to six weeks, this is why two consecutive treatments are initially recommended.

Will this procedure work if I have a crown or veneers?

Teeth whitening specifically works on tooth enamel. It doesn't change the colour of dental work such as crowns and bridges, veneers or fillings, although it may lift stains from their surfaces. ​

If you have dental restorations like crowns or veneers, they’ll probably have been matched to the natural colour of your teeth. That means they may stand out in your mouth after teeth whitening. Once you have completed your whitening procedure your dentist can replace any existing restorations to match your new whiter teeth if needed.

Can I use this treatment with braces?

It is recommended to wait until you complete your orthodontic treatment to have a tooth whitening procedure. But if you don't want to wait, it's still possible to whiten your teeth when braces are in place – it can just be more difficult and produce less even results.​

When your braces are removed, the areas beneath might look darker or more yellow than the rest of your teeth, so you may want to arrange a touch-up treatment to help even things out.
