Good day, I have 2 questions regarding blue UV light used during my teeth whitening procedure: *I accidentally looked at the blue UV light for an instant through the gap in the glasses I was wearing as the provider put the device in my mouth - could this have damaged my eyes? *can the UV cause cancer in my mouth/lips? I had three 15 minute sessions during the procedure. Thank you
I had my braces removed and a lingual retainer was placed on the back of my teeth. My top 2 front teeth appear darker from the middle of each tooth downward and I can't figure out if it's from my ortho removing too much of my enamel where the brackets were or if it's a shadow of the lingual retainer/glue behind my teeth. I'm really embarrassed to smile now and was wondering if Icon Resin Infiltration could help reduce this or would bonding be better.
Just for clarification: I am not the most disciplined when it comes to teeth hygiene but I want to change that. My lower teeth are more stained than the upper ones and have some plaque buildup which I will also be getting removed. My only concern is that I wont be able to whiten my teeth up to a certain level. Ideally I would like to get a B1 shade(brightest and whitest shade). Im willing to undergo multiple in clinic procedures aswell as use whitening strips. Is it achievable or unrealistic?
Ive been to the dentist lately to have a couple of cavities filled and a cleaning so this is not tarter and he doesnt mention anything about the discoloration of my teeth. Do I need some kind of cosmetic dentistry for this or is there something my actual dentist can do?
I am looking for a dental procedure for whiter teeth that coats my teeth and doesnt bleach or damage my enamel. I heard about permanent tooth paint but cannot seem to find anywhere that does it. Is this an alternative to veneers ?
I got this colouring due to water I drank in Zimbabwe as a child and I have a gap inbetween my front teeth. I also hate the shape of them altogether. I am considering getting crowns or having them removed or something. I don't know what to get honestly, please help me
