Teeth whitening

We understand how important it is to feel confident in your smile. Teeth Whitening brightens the shade of your teeth so they appear fresher and brighter, At Clonakilty Dental Centre your dentist will first assess your suitability for teeth whitening . Once suitability is confirmed your dentist will take impressions of your teeth and make custom-made trays for you. The teeth whitening procedure requires you to wear clear moulds filled with whitening gel for at least two hours per day for 7 days to three week depending on the shade required

• Cover a tooth that has had a root canal treatment

Replacing old fillings

Many people require fillings throughout their life - they are one of the most common dental treatments and are used to repair and strengthen teeth affected by cavities and decay. In the past, fillings were made out of metal and could be very obvious when you smiled. Nowadays more and more people are opting for white composite fillings, which blend in more naturally with the colour of your teeth and are far less obvious, Our dental team at Clonakilty Dental Centre can replace old silver-coloured fillings with white modern fillings to quickly improve your smile
