For some, a quick photo edit can whiten your teeth and give your smile a sparkle. But with teeth whitening, it is not just about looking good – it is about feeling good. With summer comes the long days of being outside with friends and family. Photos will be snapping left, right and centre. With teeth whitening, you will feel confident to flash that grin.
There are a range of factors that cause teeth to lose their whiteness: certain foods and drinks, smoking, poor oral hygiene, and ageing. Sometimes genetics play a role too. Physical qualities such as tooth colour play a big role in human social interaction. Teeth discolouration can lead to low self-esteem and unhappiness. Young people may also find it harder to smile freely due to feeling self-conscious.
The summer period is a great time to consider teeth whitening. It is a popular time for big social occasions: parties, weddings, family reunions and holidays. A pearly white smile can help you look and feel your best. Furthermore, it can help you feel more relaxed and confident in any situation.
Procedure possibility
Teeth whitening is one of the most popular dental procedures worldwide. It is also now very affordable. Visiting a dentist provides a safer, more effective and longer-lasting solution than at-home options for whitening. This is because at-home options may be sourced from manufacturers or locations outside the UK, where the products are less regulated and therefore could be harmful to the mouth.
Staining on your teeth could be intrinsic (inside your tooth enamel) or extrinsic (on the outside of your tooth). Dentists offer the best whitening service because they assess the type of discolouration on your teeth and tailor treatment accordingly. Professional teeth whitening can keep your smile bright for many months if you maintain with aftercare.
As a procedure, teeth whitening is the bleaching of the teeth to lighten the darker shades. This can be done in a few ways, including using a plastic whitening tray to regularly apply the bleaching gel. After receiving your customised tray from the dentist, this is mostly an at-home option.
Smiling releases endorphins and reduces stress. It makes you approachable and it makes you trustworthy. It boosts your immune system and it relieves pain. Sharing your smile can have the same effect on other people. Tooth whitening can give you that confidence to share it.
If you have any questions, our dentists are BACD members and can offer advice and guidance with teeth whitening.

🦷 Did you know your oral health affects your whole body?
Your mouth doesn’t exist in isolation. Gum health, inflammation and oral hygiene can all play a role in your wider wellbeing – from heart health to confidence and mental wellness.
We’ve just published a new blog exploring the link between oral health and overall wellness, and why looking after your teeth and gums is about much more than your smile.
If you’re interested in oral health and general health Portishead, this is a great read and a helpful reminder of how small daily habits can support long-term health.

When is root canal treatment needed?
It’s a question many patients ask — and in this video, Richard explains it clearly and simply.
Root canal treatment is usually needed when the nerve inside a tooth becomes inflamed or infected. This can happen because of deep decay, a crack in the tooth, repeated dental work, or sometimes after an injury.
You might experience symptoms like persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers, pain when biting, or swelling around the gum. However, sometimes there are very few symptoms at all — which is why regular check-ups at the practice are so important.
The good news is that root canal treatment is designed to relieve pain, not cause it. It removes the infection, saves the natural tooth, and helps you avoid extraction.
Watch Richard’s video to understand the signs to look out for — and if you’re worried about a tooth, get in touch with our reception team for advice.
