We all know that age, smoking and drinking tea, coffee and red wine can make our teeth more yellow. Oak Lodge Dental Practice has the perfect solution. Home Whitening offers the opportunity for you to have brighter, whiter teeth, from the comfort of your own home.
The dentist will take impressions of your teeth and from these, special, thin mouth guards will be made. At home, you can then squeeze a small amount of whitening gel into your mouth guard and wear it overnight, or for a few hours each day. The whitening can take place whenever it suits you best.
