Professional whitening that safely lifts years of stains — dramatically brighter results than over-the-counter kits.
Professional whitening lifts staining from coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco that has built up in the tooth over years. The gel we use is considerably stronger than anything sold over the counter, which is the main reason the results are not comparable.
It is also the reason it is done under supervision. We check first that the discoloration is actually surface staining and not something else — a dead tooth, an old filling, or thin enamel showing the darker dentine underneath all look similar and none of them respond to whitening.
Whitening does not change the color of crowns, veneers or fillings. If you have visible restorations at the front, it is worth planning the order of work, because those may need replacing to match afterwards. We will raise it before you start rather than after.
Typically one to three years, depending on what you eat, drink and smoke. Top-up trays keep it going.
Some sensitivity during and just after treatment is common and settles within a few days. Tell us if you already have sensitive teeth and we will adjust the approach.
Professionally supervised whitening has a long safety record. The risks come from unsupervised high-strength products and ill-fitting trays that leak gel onto the gums.
