Treating and correcting discoloured teeth can instantly restore the confidence in your smile. Brighter and whiter teeth are also perceived as more youthful and healthy.

Causes of tooth discolouration vary greatly, and often there is more than one factor that is causing the tooth/teeth to discolour.

To successfully treat discoloured teeth, it is very important to first seek advice from a dentist to find out why the teeth have discoloured, as the treatments will differ based on the cause.
 

For general stain build up or for those looking for a easy, and non-invasive way to improve the colour of their teeth, Hygiene treatment and Professional Tooth Whitening is usually a good place to start, and can help make your smile appear more youthful and fresh.

For more severe discolourations, or for those who seek a more significant change or 'near-perfect' look, other treatments such as porcelain veneers, composite bonding may the treatment of choice. 

For certain types of white spots on teeth, a minimally invasive treatment called ICON help lessen or eliminate these discolourations, without any damage to the natural tooth.
