Do you have stained teeth that make you feel self-conscious about smiling? Teeth whitening can be a good solution for certain types of tooth staining.

Teeth can be stained by foods, drinks, smoking and certain medications. Teeth whitening is a safe procedure that can lighten the colour of your teeth by using a safe dental bleaching agent. Individual results vary and are based on your initial tooth colour and the nature of your tooth staining.

We deliver two types of teeth whitening:

1. Zoom Whitening

Here your teeth are whitened in the dental chair. A protective barrier is placed on your gums and lips, and a gel is placed on your teeth. A lamp is positioned over the teeth and this activates the bleaching process. Watch this clip to see how it works. After one hour you can expect your teeth to look a few shades brighter and is a popular choice with many patients who have an important event coming up where they want to look their best.

2. Home Whitening

Here we custom-make a lightweight plastic mouth tray for you that fits snugly over your teeth. You then put a whitening gel inside the tray and wear it at night or for a few hours during the day. Results are normally seen over 2 weeks and your teeth will also appear whiter and brighter.

3. Combination

Using a combination of home whitening and Zoom whitening may also be used. Your dentist will be able to explain the best option for you, during a consultation.

Please note, a consultation with a dentist is required to prescribe tooth whitening treatment.

4. Enlighten

The Enlighten teeth whitening system is one of the easiest ways to enhance your looks.

Whether you want to add a sparkle to your smile for a special day or perfect your look for every day. Whitening is simple affordable and safe.
