What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic treatment that lightens the shade of your natural teeth by removing surface stains and discolouration. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional whitening offers faster, more consistent, and longer-lasting results under the supervision of qualified dental professionals.

What to Expect During a Teeth Whitening Visit:
- Initial Assessment: We start with a thorough dental check-up to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy and suitable for whitening. We’ll also discuss your expectations and the level of whitening you’re hoping to achieve.
- Treatment Option Selection: Depending on your needs, we’ll recommend either in-chair whitening for immediate results or custom take-home trays for gradual brightening at your own pace.
- The Whitening Procedure: For in-chair treatment, a protective barrier is applied to your gums before the whitening gel is activated. The process usually takes around an hour, and many patients see visible results after a single session. For take-home kits, we’ll provide custom-fitted trays along with professional-grade whitening gel, with clear instructions for safe use over one to two weeks.
- Post-Treatment Care: We’ll give you aftercare tips to prolong your results, including guidance on what foods and drinks to avoid in the first 24–48 hours and how to maintain your new, brighter smile.
