Teeth whitening
In-clinic whitening with a sensitivity-conscious protocol and honest expectations.
Whitening lifts stains from the tooth structure; it cannot change the colour of fillings, crowns or exposed roots. We check gum health, look for decay and discuss the expected change before starting. The goal is a brighter, natural-looking smile — not a uniform, artificial white.
This may be for you if
- Coffee, tea or tobacco staining
- A dull smile before a wedding or event
- Yellowing that has built up over years
- Whitening toothpaste that has stopped working
What the appointment includes
- Shade assessment and gum check
- Professional cleaning before whitening
- In-clinic gel application with gum protection
- Post-treatment sensitivity guidance
- Take-home maintenance advice
How treatment is planned.
The steps are similar for most patients. The timeline and fee are confirmed in writing after examination.
- 01
Check suitability
We confirm that your gums and teeth are healthy enough and that the shade change is realistic.
- 02
Clean first
Plaque and surface stain are removed so the gel reaches the tooth evenly.
- 03
Whiten in clinic
Gum barriers and a controlled gel protocol are used to reduce sensitivity.
- 04
Maintain
We give you a simple plan for the first week and honest advice about coffee, tea and tobacco.
