What is Teeth Whitening?

Whitening is a process where the tooth discolouration is 'whitened' to a lighter shade. It removes the staining agent through chemical means. It is a safe procedure when carried out under professional supervision. Treatment results usually depend on the severity of the discolouration. Both vital (i.e. live) and non-vital teeth (e.g. tooth with root removed) can be bleached and may take several visits to complete. It is not effective on dental restorations such as amalgam fillings, metal or porcelain crowns, etc.

Home Whitening

A custom made mouth tray is created. A whitening gel is placed in the tray which you then wear whist asleep or for short periods during the day.

Results are normally seen over 2 weeks.
