Teeth whitening

Safely lighten stained or yellowed teeth, with a dentist checking your teeth first.

Typical time: 1 hour or 2 weeks

The process

What happens

Chai, coffee, paan, smoking and time can all darken teeth. Professional whitening lightens your natural tooth colour by several shades, safely and evenly, after the dentist has checked that your teeth are healthy.

  1. 01

    Check first

    We check for decay, gum problems and sensitivity, because whitening should only be done on healthy teeth.

  2. 02

    Choose your method

    In-clinic whitening gives a quicker result. Home whitening uses custom trays and a gentler gel over about two weeks.

  3. 03

    Review

    We compare the new shade with where you started and advise on keeping the result.

Questions

Common Questions

Will whitening change the colour of my fillings or crowns?

No. Whitening only lightens natural teeth. If you have visible fillings or crowns, we’ll plan around them so your smile matches.

How long before my wedding should I whiten?

Start four to six weeks before the day. That leaves time for a touch-up and for any sensitivity to settle.
