Tariq Drabu in Manchester said “The national and region averages have been revealed on tooth whitening procedures carried out at home under dental supervision. Figures we have already been made aware of includes the national UDA average for England and Wales which sits at £17.23. We also know the average cost of a hygiene appointment is £91 and that a routine dental appointment average is £40.”
Tariq Drabu went on to say “Tooth whitening at home kits which are provided by dental professionals and carried out under dental professionals vary considerably from one side on England to the next. In fact in London and South East England patients can expect to pay around £333 for this treatment, twenty percent more than the national average. The Midlands ranges between £267 and £277, just slightly over the national average which sits at £272.”
Tariq Drabu closed in saying “Tooth whitening is a procedure that should only be carried out under strict supervision of a dental professional. At my practice, the Langley Dental Practice in Middleton, we provide our patients with two tooth whitening options starting at just £199, which lighten the tone of the natural tooth colour and brighten smiles. I believe the reason tooth whitening has become so popular is that it brightens smiles and boosts confidence.”
