My quest for perfect pearly whites

Wednesday, February 25, 2015

Ok I'll admit it, I've been naughty this year :( on weekdays I'm inseparable from the Nespresso machine and my dark chocolate flavoured coffee capsules and on weekends you can catch me starting the day with a nice tall glass of Vietnamese iced coffee. I didn't think 2015 would be the year of caffeine but with a new product launch, international site launch and company re-branding on my shoulders, it's hard to survive without it.

Unfortunately for me, my new found love has come at the cost of my once pearly whites and I'm now on a mission to get back my great white bite and I thought it would only be fitting to share my journey. 

So, I started off my quest with a few home remedies for teeth whitening including: using lemon and orange peels, coconut oil, apple cider vinegar and even baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. All of which to no avail. I also felt a slight increase in teeth sensitivity so I figured that some of these methods might not be good for my enamel in the long term. 

Which made me realise it was probably best to leave it to the experts! I did a lot of research online and found fantastic reviews and before and afters from successful teeth whitening patients that have been happy with the results from their in-chair treatment at Broadway Dental. Considering I'm turning a year older next week, I felt that clock ticking and decided it was time for a little confidence booster and booked myself in for my own teeth whitening experience. 

I was quite surprised at how many questions were asked before I started my treatment (usually its me asking the questions!) Dr Fadi was my dentist and he was genuinely interested to know the exact result I was after and my current knowledge of the teeth whitening treatment and its pros and cons. He talked me through the different options that I had and what results I should expect as well as showed me examples of the brighter shades his previous patients have been able to achieve, if you would like to see them you can view his smile gallery here

After checking that I was comfortable with the process, I proceeded to relax in the chair for about 20-30mins as the whitening gel was applied to my teeth. I didn't feel any discomfort or pain during the waiting period, probably because I was feeling cosy in my chair while watching daytime TV as the time flew by. Before I knew it, my session was over and it was time for a rinse! 

I couldn't believe how quick the process was and how white my teeth turned out! Dr Fadi and his team definitely underpromised and overdelivered and I couldn't be happier with my no longer coffee-stained white teeth.

Overall it was a positive, efficient, friendly and affordable experience for fantastic results and I can't wait to visit the team at Broadway Dental again.
