Abstract
- The article focuses on current legal position of tooth whitening in Great Britain. The legal position in Europe on tooth whitening can sometimes be confusing because it has different interpretations in different countries. As a popular and accessible cosmetic dental treatment, it has become widely available at many dental practices across Great Britain. The General Dental Council has stated that only registered dentists are permitted to apply materials and carry out procedures designed to improve the aesthetic appearance of teeth, since this amounts to the practice of dentistry.
