Introducing: Dr. Kam, Your Professional Dental Surgeon in Central
Thinking of bleaching your teeth? Here are some info you need to know.
Most of us would like to have whiter teeth these days. If you drink coffee, red wine or smoke, chances are you would be looking at some kind of teeth whitening solutions. To make sense of the options available out there, we thought we’d ask an expert in Hong Kong.
Dr. Andrew Y. L. Kam, dental surgeon with an office on D’Aguilar Street, Central, has agreed to lay it all out for us. He says whitening treatments are really popular in Hong Kong. According to Dr. Kam, there are basically 3 types of procedures. They are: bleaching, porcelain veneer and ceramic crown.
1. Home bleaching
This is where your dentist will customize a mouth tray for you. What you need to do is to apply the bleaching gel (e.g. 10% carbamide peroxide) into the tray and wear it overnight. Usually the whitening result will be obvious in 2 to 6 weeks time.
