As a young mother, I was reasonably ignorant when raising my firstborn. My biggest regret is that I didn't help her take better care of her teeth. Like many people, I didn't realise the importance of baby teeth, resulting in long-term dental problems. Recently, my daughter got married and some of my tears were for the beautiful, glistening smile she presented to the cameras. Ever since I realised the dental damage I had caused, I had been saving for my daughter to have cosmetic dentistry. The results are remarkable. During the course of this journey, I have learnt a lot about caring for children's teeth and corrective procedures that can be undertaken when issues arise. I am sure many of you would be interested in the latest knowledge and techniques that are available to prevent and repair dental complications. I'm Margret Devlin - thanks for visiting.
Wanting to have your white teeth back might be quite stressful, especially if you're using treatments that don't work. Though not immediate, custom white trays are a long-term solution to your teeth whitening needs. Teeth whitening with custom fitted trays is a gradual but safe, efficient and effective way of getting that whiter, shinier smile you've always wanted.
Below is a look at how custom-fit teeth whitening trays work and some benefits of using the trays for your teeth whitening.
How Custom-Fit Whitening Trays Work
Custom-fitted teeth whitening trays are dentist-dispensed teeth whitening kits. They are fitted on both the lower and upper teeth with a gel, which is essentially a bleaching solution. When the trays are fitted properly, the bleach adheres to the teeth well and should not cause pain or irritation. The custom trays are worn by the users for the length of time prescribed by the dentist.
It is important to note that your dentist should clean your teeth and administer treatment in case of any tooth diseases or problems such as tooth decay and gum diseases before you can use the custom trays. Thereafter, you should brush and floss prior to applying the gel, as the solution works most effectively on clean teeth. Your dentist will then use moulds to make you a tray which fits perfectly and feel comfortable while inside your mouth. Make sure the trays are clean and dry before applying the gel.
