What to expect
Professional whitening is a safe way to lift stains and brighten teeth while protecting enamel and gums.
How it works:
• A consultation confirms you are suitable (gum health, decay checks, existing restorations)
• Shade assessment and goal-setting
• Typically provided via custom trays and professional-grade gel for controlled results
What results to expect:
• Natural-looking brightening over days to weeks (varies by starting shade and habits)
• We provide guidance to minimise sensitivity and maintain results
Important notes:
• Fillings, crowns and veneers do not whiten—sometimes we plan whitening first, then match restorations
• If you have sensitivity, we can tailor gel strength and provide desensitising strategies
Aftercare:
Avoid heavy staining foods/drinks initially, maintain good hygiene, and use top-up gel periodically as advised.
