Teeth Whitening
Dentist-supervised treatment used to lighten the colour of natural teeth.
Why it may be considered
- To reduce the appearance of age-related darkening
- To address staining associated with food, drink or smoking
- To refresh the shade of natural teeth before other cosmetic planning
What the treatment usually involves
A dentist first checks that the teeth and gums are healthy. Whitening may use custom trays and prescribed gel over a period of time, or an in-clinic approach where appropriate.
Important considerations
- Whitening changes natural tooth colour but not crowns, veneers, fillings or implants.
- Temporary sensitivity or gum irritation can occur.
- It is not carried out where the dentist considers the teeth or gums unsuitable.
