Our teeth whitening treatment process
Step 1 – Consultation
If you are interested in teeth whitening, we begin by examining your teeth and gums, working out the nature and cause of the discolouration. We ask you to tell us about your ideal whiter smile and make sure we can provide the best teeth whitening for you. You are also welcome to ask us as many questions as you want!
Step 2 – Preparation
We take digital scans and images of your teeth so your whitening trays can be made with a comfortable and precise fit. When they are ready, we show you how to use them with the specially formulated whitening gel and how to insert them into your mouth. We also give you some advice and instructions for your treatment at home.
Step 3 – Whitening
It is then over to you! You simply wear your teeth whitening trays for a short period of time in the day or overnight, depending on your lifestyle and our advice. Your at-home professional teeth whitening treatment will typically take 2-3 weeks, although you may need to wear your trays for longer if your teeth are significantly discoloured.
Step 4 – Results
When your at-home treatment is finished, we arrange a follow-up appointment in our practice. We make sure you are happy with your results, and can compare before-and-after images to show you how bright your teeth have become. We also give you some advice for maintaining your whiter smile, including top-up treatments.
