A toned body is complemented by enhanced looks, and the most beautifying procedure of the face is teeth whitening.

A White smile with pearly teeth is not a luxury reserved for famous people, its for people of all ages who want to have a confident smile.

People who have white teeth show them off more often because they feel more comfortable with their smile.

What causes the teeth to turn yellow?

There is a range of reasons teeth become discoloured, the environment, genetics or taking certain medication. Can all have an impact on the brightness of your teeth. The most common reason is stains coming from food, drinks and lifestyle choices, over time these surface stains work their way to the internal layer of teeth known as dentine, and the whole tooth looks darker.

There are several options, ranging from over the counter whitening products to professional teeth whitening. Prescribed whitening treatment can take place either at our Elanora practice or at home.

The first step is a consultation with Dr Leith Jacobs.
