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.
Brushing your teeth is important… but it’s only part of the story 🦷
In this video, Richard explains why cleaning between your teeth matters too - and the different ways you can do it, including:
✔ Floss
✔ TePe brushes
✔ Water flossers
Your toothbrush can’t always reach the tight spaces between your teeth, which means plaque and food can build up in these areas over time.
Cleaning between your teeth daily can help reduce:
✨ Gum problems
✨ Bad breath
✨ Tooth decay between teeth
Not sure which option is best for you? There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, and our team can help you find what works best for your smile and lifestyle.

Do you wake up with jaw pain, headaches or tension in your face? You could be clenching or grinding your teeth without even realising it.
In this video, Yasmin discusses how neurotoxin injections may help relieve symptoms associated with TMJ problems and teeth grinding.
For some patients, treatment can help to:
✨ Relax overactive jaw muscles
✨ Reduce clenching and grinding
✨ Ease tension and discomfort
✨ Help with headaches linked to jaw strain
Many people grind their teeth during sleep or clench during stressful periods, often without knowing they’re doing it.
If you’ve been experiencing symptoms such as:
• Jaw ache
• Facial tension
• Headaches
• Worn teeth
• Clicking or tightness in the jaw
…it may be worth exploring your options.

Did you know? 👀
One of the simplest ways to improve your oral health is cleaning between your teeth every day.
Your toothbrush cleans the front, back and biting surfaces of your teeth - but it can’t always reach the tight spaces in between, where plaque and food can build up.
Using interdental brushes or floss daily can help:
✨ Reduce gum problems
✨ Freshen breath
✨ Lower the risk of decay between teeth
Not sure which products are best for you? Our team would always be happy to help guide you.
Small habits really do make a big difference 💙
