But Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening?
We all have unique factors—such as age, lifestyle, diet, and medications—that influence the health of our teeth and gums. A whitening solution that works for someone else may not provide the same results for you. Additionally, some over-the-counter products could even harm your gums.
Opting for our professional teeth-whitening services offers numerous advantages over store-bought alternatives:
- Customized Care: During your consultation, we take the time to listen to your concerns about the appearance of your teeth, your desired results, and expectations. After a thorough examination of your teeth and gums, we create a tailored whitening plan that suits your oral health and goals.
- Expert Application: Our skilled dentists are experienced with various teeth-whitening techniques and products. They strictly follow safety protocols to ensure your well-being throughout the procedure.
- Powerful Efficacy: We use a prescription-strength bleaching solution that contains some of the most powerful whitening agents available, giving you a noticeably brighter smile.
- Rapid Transformation: Our professional teeth whitening delivers exceptional results in as little as one hour.
- Uniform Brightness: Over-the-counter products, particularly whitening strips, can sometimes lead to uneven results. Our dentists ensure a consistent and uniform whitening across all surfaces of your teeth.
- Enhanced Comfort: To minimize the risk of sensitivity or gum irritation, we use a laser during the procedure, making the experience as comfortable as possible for you.

When Should You Whiten?
Our dentists recommend that teeth whitening will not change the colour of crowns, bridges, veneers, or fillings. Therefore, if you’re considering any of these dental treatments soon, we suggest whitening your teeth beforehand. This ensures that any future dental work will be matched to the brighter shade of your teeth.
Did you know that professional teeth whitening can eliminate stains and discolouration both on the surface of your teeth and deep within?

So, Why Do Teeth Become Stained or Discoloured?
Surface Stains: Your teeth are protected by a layer of enamel, which is mainly composed of minerals. In fact, enamel is the hardest substance in the human body.
- However, tooth enamel is also porous, containing tiny pores that can absorb stain-causing substances such as:
- Dark drinks like tea, coffee, wine, colas, and fruit juices.
- Deeply pigmented sauces, including tomato and soy sauce.
- Sugary beverages and foods.
- Vibrant fruits such as berries, cherries, and pomegranates.
- Tobacco products.
Inadequate nutrition and poor oral hygiene can also contribute to the discolouration of your teeth!
Deep Stains: Below the enamel, the inner layer of your teeth can also become discoloured. This layer naturally has a yellow or greyish tint. As we age, the enamel thins, revealing this deeper colour and causing the teeth to appear dull or lacklustre. Factors such as medications, illnesses, and injuries can also contribute to discolouration of this internal layer.

Consider Your Best Teeth Whitening Options
Teeth whitening provides an effective way to enhance your natural tooth colour, often eliminating the need for more invasive treatments like veneers. Whether you choose an in-office session or follow the instructions for our personalized take-home kit, you can expect noticeable results without the discomfort of prolonged sensitivity.
Professional Whitening Treatment
For most patients, the best way to achieve a brighter smile is through a professional treatment performed in our clinic. During the session, a bleaching solution is carefully applied to your teeth using custom-fitted trays. A laser is then used to gently heat the solution, activating oxygen molecules that penetrate the enamel to lift stains. Laser teeth whitening provides immediate results and can help reduce the chances of sensitivity or gum irritation.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening Kit
For those who prefer to brighten their smile at home, we offer personalized take-home whitening kits. These kits come with custom-made trays designed to fit perfectly against the unique shape and contours of your teeth, ensuring thorough and even whitening. Unlike over-the-counter alternatives, our trays are made from molds of your teeth, which helps reduce the likelihood of sensitivity or gum irritation. These at-home kits gradually whiten your enamel over a period of three to four weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plaque forms when leftover food and drinks aren’t properly cleaned from your teeth. If not removed, plaque hardens into tartar, which can only be cleared by a dental professional. Inadequate or irregular brushing can result in this yellow buildup on or around your teeth.
After a teeth-whitening treatment, it’s best to avoid foods and drinks that can stain, such as dark beverages like tea, coffee, red wine, and coloured soft or alcoholic drinks, as well as fruit juices. Additionally, steer clear of staining foods like tomato sauce, curry, soy sauce, red meat, chocolate, and all fruits except bananas. You should avoid these for at least 48 hours after your treatment.
While teeth whitening is generally safe, some people may experience tooth sensitivity, especially during the first treatments. This discomfort usually fades over time. To minimize issues, be sure to follow the instructions provided with your take-home kit or any over-the-counter products.
The duration of your whitening results can vary depending on the method used and how well you maintain your oral hygiene. Whitening effects can last anywhere from 6 months to 3 years.
