Key Benefits
Why Patients Choose Teeth Whitening
Immediately Noticeable Results
Our in-chair Zoom! whitening treatment lightens teeth by up to 8 shades in a single appointment. Leave our clinic with a visibly brighter smile the same day.
Safe & Clinically Supervised
Professional whitening is performed under clinical supervision with gum protection in place. Far safer and more effective than pharmacy whitening products.
Long-lasting Effect
Results typically last 12–24 months with good oral hygiene and dietary habits. Top-up treatments are quick and affordable to maintain your brightness.
Natural-looking Brightness
We work with you to achieve your desired shade — from subtle freshening to dramatically whiter. No unnatural "bleached" result unless that is what you want.
Your Journey
How It Works
A clear, step-by-step process — no surprises, no pressure.
- 1
Shade Assessment
We photograph and record your current tooth shade using our shade guide, so you can see the exact improvement at the end of treatment.
- 2
Gum Protection
A protective barrier is applied to your gums and lips before whitening gel is applied to the teeth. Comfort and safety come first.
- 3
Whitening Gel Activation
The prescription whitening gel is applied to your teeth and activated using our specialist LED lamp in three 15-minute sessions.
- 4
Final Shade & Aftercare
We compare your new shade to the original, provide aftercare instructions, and send you home with a touch-up kit to maintain results.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How many shades whiter will my teeth get?
Most patients achieve 4–8 shades lighter in a single in-chair session. Results vary depending on your starting shade and the natural colour of your teeth. We will give you a realistic expectation at your consultation.
How long will the whitening effect last?
Results typically last 12–24 months depending on diet, habits, and oral hygiene. Avoiding staining foods and drinks (coffee, red wine, tea) and not smoking will extend your results significantly.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Yes — when performed by dental professionals using approved products. We conduct a full dental check before whitening to ensure there are no underlying issues. Temporary tooth sensitivity is the most common side effect, which resolves within 24–48 hours.
Will whitening work on crowns, veneers, or fillings?
Whitening only works on natural tooth enamel — it will not change the colour of crowns, veneers, or composite fillings. If you have visible restorations, we will discuss managing the shade difference at your consultation.
