Professional Teeth Whitening: Brighten Your Smile Safely
Achieve a whiter, more radiant smile with professional teeth whitening. This safe and effective treatment removes tooth discolouration using advanced chemical techniques under expert supervision.
Whether you’re dealing with surface stains or deeper discolouration, teeth whitening can help restore your confidence and brighten your smile.
What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that lightens the colour of teeth by removing discolouration. The process involves using a chemical agent to safely break down staining compounds, revealing a brighter and whiter smile.
Key points about professional teeth whitening:
- Results depend on the severity of discolouration.
- Effective on both vital teeth (live teeth) and non-vital teeth (e.g., teeth with a root canal).
- May require multiple visits to achieve optimal results.
- Not effective on dental restorations such as fillings, metal crowns, or porcelain veneers.
What Causes Tooth Discolouration?
Teeth can become discoloured for a variety of reasons, including:
- Lifestyle Factors:
- Consuming staining foods and drinks like coffee, tea, red wine, and berries.
- Smoking or tobacco use.
- Aging:
- Enamel naturally thins over time, revealing the yellowish dentine beneath.
- Medications:
- Certain antibiotics or medications can cause tooth staining.
- Trauma or Injury:
- Damage to a tooth can lead to internal discolouration.
- Poor Oral Hygiene:
- Inadequate brushing and flossing allow plaque and tartar to build up, causing stains.
Your dentist will conduct an in-office examination to identify the cause and recommend the most effective whitening treatment for your needs.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
Yes, professional teeth whitening is safe when performed under the supervision of a qualified dentist. Unlike over-the-counter whitening products, professional treatments are customised to protect your gums and ensure effective results.
How Long Do Whitening Results Last?
Teeth whitening results can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on:
- Lifestyle habits (e.g., avoiding staining foods and drinks).
- Proper oral hygiene practices like regular brushing and flossing.
- Periodic touch-ups with professional whitening kits or treatments.
Your Dream Smile
Whitening and Invisalign work hand in hand to create a beautifully aligned, bright smile. Invisalign straightens teeth gradually, enhancing their appearance and making them easier to clean. Once aligned, whitening treatments can evenly brighten teeth, maximizing the impact of the new smile. Together, they deliver a stunning, confident transformation.
Does teeth whitening work on all types of stains?
Professional whitening is highly effective on extrinsic (surface) stains but may not fully address intrinsic (internal) stains or stains on restorations like crowns or veneers.
Is teeth whitening painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. If sensitivity occurs, it is temporary and can be managed with desensitising toothpaste or advice from your dentist.
