After straightening some patients opt to whiten their teeth using our professional home whitening treatment. Take-home whitening kits contain tailor-made dental trays and bleaching gels that you will wear during the day or whilst you sleep, over one to two weeks, depending on your chosen treatment. You may also have the shape of your teeth altered slightly using composite bonding to achieve a more uniform appearance. Bonding uses a tooth-coloured composite resin material to smooth over cracks, chips and discolouration – it can also close gaps and correct the shape of uneven teeth. The composite material is putty-like, making it easy to mould and sculpt in any way necessary.
