Teeth Whitening

We can help you achieve a brighter and more confident smile! If you are looking to enhance the appearance of your teeth and remove stains or discoloration, our teeth whitening treatments are just what you need.

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that helps to lighten the colour of your teeth. It is a popular treatment for removing stains and discoloration caused by factors like aging, food and drink, and smoking. There are different methods for teeth whitening, including in-office treatments performed by a dentist and at-home kits with whitening gels or strips. These treatments typically use hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide to break down stains and brighten the appearance of your teeth. It is always a good idea to consult with our dental professional to determine the best teeth whitening option for you.

Consultation: You will start by scheduling a consultation with a dental professional to discuss your goals and determine if teeth whitening is the right option for you.
Examination: During the examination, the dentist will assess the current shade of your teeth, evaluate your oral health, and discuss any potential risks or limitations.
Treatment Options: Based on your needs and preferences, the dentist will recommend the most suitable teeth whitening method for you. This could include in-office professional whitening or at-home whitening kits.
In-Office Whitening: If you opt for in-office whitening, the dentist will apply a protective barrier to your gums and then apply a whitening gel to your teeth. A specialized light or laser may be used to activate the gel and enhance the whitening process. The gel is typically left on for a specific duration, and the process may be repeated for optimal results.
At-Home Whitening: If you choose at-home whitening, the dentist will provide you with custom-made trays and a whitening gel. You will be instructed on how to apply the gel to the trays and wear them for a designated amount of time each day. The duration of the treatment will depend on the specific product and your desired results.
Follow-Up: After the initial treatment, your dentist may schedule a follow-up appointment to assess the outcome and make any necessary adjustments. They may also provide guidance on maintaining your newly whitened smile.
