Will a cleaning make my teeth whiter?+
It can remove surface stain, which may make them look brighter, but it doesn’t alter the underlying colour. If you are hoping for a bigger change, ask about teeth whitening at your appointment.
Can you remove stains from coffee or tea?+
Surface stain from these drinks is often the type that scaling and polishing can address. How much comes off depends on how the stain has formed, and on your teeth.
Should I have a check-up before trying whitening?+
It is a sensible order of events, since your dentist can see your oral health and existing work first. Suitability for whitening is something to decide together, after that assessment.
Why does one tooth look darker than the others?+
A single tooth standing out deserves a look, because there are several possible explanations. Ask your dentist to examine it, and call the clinic if it hurts too.
Does my dental plan cover the polish?+
Coverage varies, so it helps to bring your plan or CDCP details and ask for an estimate. What you pay depends on your plan and which services you receive.
