Teeth can discolour for various reasons such as trauma, dietary causes such as food and drink, tobacco use as well as natural ageing and thinning of enamel (the outer layer of the tooth). Teeth whitening is one of the most commonly requested cosmetic dental treatments, providing phenomenal results and enhancing smiles. When performed by a registered dentist, teeth whitening is a completely safe procedure. It is best practice to see a hygienist before you start your whitening treatment to help remove stains and maintain your smile.

The main benefits are:

How the treatment works
Check-up
Your dentist will examine your teeth and gums to ensure the teeth are ready, restore any cavities and take moulds/digital scan for your bespoke whitening trays.
Trays
Your mould/scan is sent to the laboratory where technicians will manufacture the trays to fit your mouth precisely to optimise your whitening result.
Treatment
Collect your trays and gel from the dentist who will instruct you on how to use and get the most out of the system. Then it’s time to start!

Internal Whitening – Single Dark Tooth
Why Has One Tooth Darkened?
Have you noticed a single tooth that appears darker than the others? This can be a cause for concern, and you might be wondering what caused it. Here at Holly Tree House Dental Practice, we understand your worry and are here to help.
Understanding Discoloured Teeth:
Several reasons can lead to a single discoloured tooth, including:
- Dead or Damaged Nerve: If the nerve inside a tooth dies due to injury or infection, it can cause the tooth to darken over time.
- Previous Dental Work: Root canals or fillings, while necessary procedures, can sometimes lead to discolouration in the treated tooth.
- Trauma: A blow to the tooth can damage the pulp and lead to discolouration.
What We Can Do to Help:
At Holly Tree House Dental Practice, we prioritise your oral health and a confident smile. Our experienced dentists will:
- Conduct a thorough examination: We’ll carefully examine your tooth to identify the cause of the discolouration.
- Discuss treatment options: Based on the diagnosis, we’ll explain safe and effective solutions to restore your smile, like teeth whitening, dental veneers, or crowns.
- Tailor a treatment plan: We believe in personalised care and will work with you to choose the best course of action for your specific situation.
