Many of us want whiter, brighter smiles – but what\u2019s the best way to achieve it? At smilogy, we believe it\u2019s custom tray whitening, as this ensures that smiles are whitened safely, quickly and evenly.<\/p>

Here\u2019s an overview of all the different kinds of teeth whitening, and what to expect.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

You can find teeth whitening strips in stores across Australia. They\u2019re easy to apply – simply put the whitening strips across the top and bottom rows of teeth respectively.<\/p>

This method is cheap and convenient, and you can see results in just three days. However, it\u2019s only advised for moderate staining and since it\u2019s a one-size-fits-all approach, you won\u2019t get to choose your shade and results may not be even.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Toothpastes with whitening agents in them work over time to make your smile shine brighter. You won\u2019t see results straight away, but you might see a difference gradually.<\/p>

This isn\u2019t the best choice for \u201cwow\u201d results, but it can be great as a top-up or if you want something more subtle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Laser whitening is a relatively new development. The lasers help to activate the whitening agents, while your mouth is protected from them. You may see results right away after your treatment, and it\u2019s generally super fast.<\/p>

Not everyone is suitable for this kind of procedure as it\u2019s not recommended for everyone.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Some people go to their dentist for in-chair LED whitening. They add hydrogen peroxide gel to your teeth, and it\u2019s then broken down by an LED heat lamp. Oxygen attacks your enamel and gets rid of any stains.<\/p>

Some people experience sensitivity after this kind of whitening.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
