Teeth Whitening & Discoloured Teeth Treatments in Adelaide

A bright, healthy white smile is a dream for most people, and teeth whitening treatments are increasingly popular as a way to achieve this goal. However, with so much misinformation surrounding quick-fix whitening products, it’s crucial to understand which methods work and are safe for your dental health.

At Kensington Dental Care, we’re committed to providing effective, safe teeth whitening solutions that suit your budget and deliver the results you’re looking for.

Whiter Teeth in No Time! Say Goodbye to Discoloured Teeth with Dentist Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening involves bleaching the enamel to remove stains, often using agents like hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. We offer several options to suit your budget and desired outcome. During a teeth whitening appointment, we also assess your dental condition to ensure an effective whole-mouth treatment. Whether you choose a take-home whitening gel or in-chair whitening, contact Kensington Dental Care for your discoloured teeth treatment.

Of the many Adelaide dentists offering teeth whitening, Kensington Dental Care has treatment options to suit every budget and health condition.

What Causes Tooth Discolouration?

Understanding the cause of your staining and tooth discolouration is essential for choosing the most effective treatment. There are two main types of staining:

Extrinsic Staining

If you’ve noticed yellow stains on your tooth enamel, this is typically the result of plaque buildup that hasn’t been cleaned from your teeth regularly or properly. Common contributors include:

  • Coffee, red wine, and soft drinks
  • Smoking and tobacco use
  • Poor oral hygiene habits

Intrinsic Staining

Some tooth discolouration occurs from within the tooth and may include:

  • Natural ageing (as tooth enamel weakens with age, revealing the yellow dentin beneath)
  • Tooth trauma from a young age
  • Internal tooth bleeding
  • Previous root canal treatment

These intrinsic stains are often beyond your control, which is why professional assessment is so important.

Our Professional Whitening Treatments

  • Our Oral Health Therapists can reduce plaque and tartar buildup, which often causes tooth discolouration. When plaque and tartar are removed, the tooth surface becomes smoother, causing your teeth to appear naturally whiter.

  • ZOOM! whitening is a light-activated teeth whitening procedure that effectively lightens discoloured tooth enamel. This straightforward, non-invasive technique takes just 45 to 60 minutes and can deliver impressive results.

  • For teeth that are stained or discoloured due to old root canal treatment, internal bleaching may be the ideal solution. This painless process targets discolouration from within the tooth structure.

  • When intrinsic stains are visible but no other tooth issues exist, we can bond a lighter, tooth-coloured material to the front of the tooth for an instantly improved appearance.

  • When discolouration isn’t the only concern, crowns or veneers may be necessary to achieve both aesthetic and health results. Both options are highly durable, look like natural teeth, and offer precise colour matching to reach your desired shade.

Turn that dream of having a pearly white smile into a reality with Kensington Dental Care.
