Teeth vary greatly in how white they are naturally. Some perfectly healthy teeth can look yellow and teeth get gradually darker over the years. Now you can have whiter teeth in only a few weeks, with straightforward, simple processes, which are completely safe for you and your teeth. How does it work? The whitening gel acts on the enamel, releasing oxygen molecules which travel through microscopic tubules in the structure of the teeth to reach the inner dentine. The action of the oxygen bleaches out the colour, and the result is a lightening of the colour of the teeth. What is involved? Your dentist will take impressions of your teeth, and very thin trays will be made which will fit your teeth closely. On the next visit, the trays are checked for fit, and the starting shade of your teeth is noted. You take the trays home with the whitening gel and full instructions. Following these instructions, you use the trays with the gel inside, either at night, or for a few hours once a day.

Teeth vary greatly in how white they are naturally. Some perfectly healthy teeth can look yellow and teeth get gradually darker over the years. Now you can have whiter teeth in only a few weeks, with straightforward, simple processes, which are completely safe for you and your teeth.

achieved the shade you want, or until your teeth don’t whiten any further. This usually takes about three weeks, with daily use. You should achieve a natural, brighter, lighter smile, which research shows leads others to think you look ten years younger! If you want a faster result, or if you want to get your teeth “Hollywood” white, there are other methods we can use. Ask your dentist about them.

Should I expect any problems?Some people find that their teeth are more sensitive than usual during the whitening process. This is not normally a problem, and there are ways of overcoming it, if troublesome.

This extra sensitivity will disappear once the whitening process is completed.

What else do I need to know?The whitening process does not change the colour of crowns, bridges or veneers, and does not change the colour of existing fillings. It may be necessary to change fillings for a lighter colour once the whitening has been completed. You can “top up” with gel for a few nights if the colour darkens again, or you can use the trays and gel for one or two nights each month to maintain the whiter appearance, avoiding the risk of your teeth getting darker again.

• Ashik Gavai, 17, underwent a seven-hour operation to remove 232 of his teeth in Mumbai, India. He was diagnosed with a rare condition, identifi ed by doctors as a complex composite odontoma, which occurs when a single gum forms lots of teeth.

• About one in every 2000 babies is born with natal teeth. Natal teeth usually grow on the bottom gums and tend to have weak roots; they’re often removed to prevent problems with breastfeeding and accidental swallowing. Being born with teeth can be a symptom of certain medical conditions, and ancient physiognomy associated it with evil—but it’s usually harmless.

• Paul Revere (1735 – 1818) was an American silversmith, engraver, early industrialist, Patriot in the American Revolution and above all a dentist. He is best known for alerting the Colonial militia to the approach of British forces before the battles of Lexington and Concord. He is the fi rst person known to use dental forensics, to identify the body of a colonial colonel killed at the Battle of Bunker Hill by the bridge appliance he wore.
