During and post lockdown, many people have been on a quest to achieve the perfect smile. This is according to research from Clearpay, which revealed that sales of teeth whitening products have increased by 180% since lockdown began.
Perhaps you have noticed your teeth looking dull and discoloured following those extra cups of coffee whilst working from home, or the glasses of red wine whilst relaxing at home? Whatever the cause, if your teeth are in need of brightening up, it’s really important that you do this properly - using an approved system administered by your dentist.
At Riverside Dental Spa we don’t just offer one, but two fantastic teeth whitening treatments, both of which can be carried out at home to help you achieve the perfect smile. We also offer in-chair whitening treatment too if preferred.
Let’s look at each of these treatments in detail below so you can decide which might be suitable for you.
