What is B1 Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental treatment that transforms the appearance of a smile by brightening and whitening tired looking discoloured teeth. Teeth tend to discolour naturally owing to a variety of reasons from medical issues, age, lack of care or habits such as smoking. The outer layer of the tooth can also become stained by certain foods and drink such as for example, red wine or coffee.
Dental practices offer teeth whitening Canary Wharf treatments such as B1 Enlighten whitening, which is considered the whitest shade for natural teeth, though nowadays there are shades that are slightly lighter. It is a safe, effective and non-invasive treatment which is popular for delivering natural looking whiteness to your teeth. It has been instrumental in bringing back confidence for people in their smiles by transforming their teeth.

How does this teeth whitening technique work?
Enlighten whitening is a two week treatment roughly depending on each patient and provides a B1 shade. It has to be done under the supervision of a dentist in Canary Wharf who will ensure that all the necessary steps are taken at the right time and results are achieved. During your initial consultation your dentist will ensure that Enlighten whitening system is suitable for your needs. There-after an impression of your teeth will be taken using the special impression material supplied by Enlighten. This is to create your custom whitening trays.
The moulds that are sent to the Enlighten lab are fabricated to the highest quality. During the time it takes for your custom trays to come you will be given a tooth whitening toothpaste for you to brush and prepare your teeth for the treatment.
During the second visit of the treatment you will be given the bleaching tray together with the whitening gel, which you will need to use for 14 consecutive nights. The final step for this teeth whitening treatment is a forty-five minute session at the clinic where your dentist will ensure that the colour looks natural and evenly done.
What are the materials used for Enlighten B1 teeth whitening?
This state of the art whitening system uses a version of carbamide peroxide gel which is safe for oral use. The Enlighten gel is pH neutral and causes no damage to the surface of the teeth or harm gums. This is why this whitening treatment is considered as one of the safest.
