Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that aims to lighten the colour of teeth and remove stains or discolouration.
It is a popular treatment option for anyone who wants to enhance the appearance of their smile and achieve brighter, more attractive teeth.
Teeth can become stained or discoloured due to various factors such as consuming dark-coloured foods and beverages, smoking, ageing, and certain medications.
The degree of whiteness achieved will vary from patient to patient and with the type of whitening process chosen.
Before undergoing professional teeth whitening, a consultation with your dentist is essential to ensure the treatment is safe for you.
Patients with sensitive gums, cavities, or ongoing tooth decay may experience side effects, so it’s important to confirm that your teeth and gums are healthy before starting the whitening process.

An impression of your teeth is taken to create a custom made mouth tray. This bleaching tray fits exactly over your teeth and ensures that the bleaching gel stays only on your teeth and is not touching your gums.
The hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide bleaching gel, which you will receive as a part of your home whitening kit, is a gentle whitening agent which will whiten your teeth to your desired shade.
Teeth whitening, when performed under professional supervision or using reputable over-the-counter products, is generally considered safe.
However, some individuals may experience temporary tooth sensitivity or gum irritation. It’s important to follow the instructions provided and consult with a dentist if you have any concerns.
The longevity of teeth whitening results varies depending on individual habits and oral care. On average, teeth whitening effects can last from several months to a year or more.
Avoiding staining foods and beverages, quitting smoking, and maintaining good oral hygiene practices can help prolong the whitening effects.
It’s important to note that teeth whitening may not be suitable for everyone. Individuals with dental restorations like fillings, crowns, or veneers may not achieve uniform whitening results, as the bleaching agents primarily affect natural tooth enamel.
Additionally, teeth whitening may cause temporary tooth sensitivity or gum irritation, but these side effects are usually mild and subside after the treatment.
Before undergoing teeth whitening, it’s advisable to consult with a dentist to determine the best approach based on your oral health and specific needs.
A dental professional can evaluate your teeth, discuss potential risks or limitations, and recommend the most appropriate teeth whitening method for you.
Professional-grade teeth whitening is the most effective method for dramatically improving the colour of yellowed teeth.
This treatment, performed by a cosmetic dentist, uses a high-concentration bleaching gel penetrating deep into the enamel to remove years of stains from substances like coffee and tobacco.
Professional whitening ensures deeper stain removal, customised care, long-lasting results, and safe application compared to over-the-counter products.
