Professional whitening, done properly

Teeth naturally darken with age, and coffee, tea, red wine and smoking all add surface staining. Professional whitening lifts your natural shade safely and evenly, using clinically proven gels at strengths only available through a registered dentist.

By law, effective whitening can only be provided by a dental professional. Kits sold online or on the high street are either too weak to work or unsafe for your enamel and gums. We examine you first, plan around any crowns or veneers, and keep your result even and natural.

  • Custom fitting whitening trays made from precise impressions
  • Full control over your final shade
  • Top up gels keep your smile bright long after treatment
  • Dentist supervised and safe for enamel and gums
How It Works

Whitening in three steps

1. Examination

We check your teeth and gums are healthy and confirm whitening will work for you.

2. Custom trays

Precise impressions are taken and your custom whitening trays are made.

3. Whiten at home

Wear the trays with professional gel, typically for a couple of weeks, and watch your shade lift gradually.

Your Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is teeth whitening safe?

Yes, when supervised by a dentist. We check your suitability first and use regulated products at safe, effective concentrations.

Will it make my teeth sensitive?

Some patients notice mild, temporary sensitivity during treatment. We adjust gel strength and wear time to keep you comfortable, and it resolves once treatment finishes.

How long do results last?

Typically one to three years depending on diet and lifestyle. Occasional top ups with your custom trays keep the shade maintained indefinitely.

Does whitening work on crowns and veneers?

No, only natural teeth change shade. We plan around existing dental work to keep your result even. See our fees page for whitening prices.
