Improve your natural smile with...
tooth whitening Want whiter, brighter teeth - who doesn’t? Whiter teeth make your smile look cleaner, healthier and more youthful
We can achieve this for you... Many people have darker teeth than they would like. Everybody’s teeth darken and yellow with age. Tea, coffee, cola, smoking and many foods form stains which penetrate deep within the tooth and cannot simply be brushed or polished away.
Balsall Common DENTAL PR ACTICE
Dr Ashley Davenport BDS, MFGDP (UK)
GDC No. 70884
201 Station Road Balsall Common Nr Coventry
Many people choose tooth whitening to solve this problem. With tooth whitening it is possible to reverse age and food related yellowing or permanently, predictably and significantly lighten your smile beyond its natural shade. Tooth whitening needs no anaesthetic, no drilling and does not harm or weaken the teeth in any way. At Balsall Common Dental Practice we offer several different whitening techniques to suit different situations and budgets. Your dentist can discuss the different options and recommend one for you.
