Professional Teeth Whitening at Smilefocus

Embark on a journey to a brighter, more radiant smile with our teeth whitening services. Teeth whitening is a common, non-invasive cosmetic procedure tailored to each individual patient’s needs.

Over time, factors like coffee, red wine, and natural aging can dim the brilliance of your teeth. Our professional teeth whitening treatments are crafted to gently and effectively eliminate stains, unveiling a luminous smile that leaves a lasting impression.

What is Teeth Whitening?

One of the most popular dental treatments, teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that lightens teeth and helps remove stains and discoloration. It can greatly improve how your teeth look.

Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening?

Professional teeth whitening provides faster, more effective, and safer results compared to over-the-counter products. Our expert team ensures that the procedure is tailored to your specific needs, maximizing effectiveness while minimizing sensitivity and discomfort.

How does Professional Teeth Whitening work?

A specialised whitening gel typically containing hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide is applied during teeth whitening treatments.

When applied to the teeth, this gel breaks down stubborn stains and discolouration by releasing oxygen molecules. These oxygen molecules penetrate the tooth enamel, effectively dissolving the compounds responsible for staining. The result is a noticeably brighter and rejuvenated smile.

We believe in personalised approaches to ensure optimal results, giving you a whiter, more radiant smile that enhances your overall confidence and well-being.

Why might I need professional Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening may be beneficial to you for various reasons. If you subject your teeth to red wine, coffee and tea, it’s natural for them to begin to stain over time. Genetics and age may also play a role. Stained teeth are nothing to feel embarrassed about. Our experienced dentists will collaborate with you to create a personalised plan aligned with your unique smile goals.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1. What is the difference between Zoom Whitening and your Take-Home Kit?

Feature	In-Clinic Zoom Whitening	Professional Take-Home Kit
Speed	Fastest option. Provides a noticeable lightening effect in approximately 60 to 90 minutes.	Gradual lightening over 1 to 2 weeks of use.

Customization	Gums and soft tissues are carefully protected with a barrier during the procedure.	Involves custom-fitted trays made from impressions of your teeth for safe, even application.

Q2. How much does professional teeth whitening cost?

The cost of professional teeth whitening varies widely based on your chosen method (In-Clinic or Take-Home) and individual treatment plan.

As teeth whitening is a form of dental treatment, a prior consultation and examination with a dentist is necessary. During this assessment, your dentist will recommend the most suitable treatment and provide you with a detailed, transparent quote before any procedure begins.

Q3. Will the procedure be painful, and will my teeth be sensitive afterward?

Professional teeth whitening is generally a comfortable procedure that requires no anesthesia.

Sensitivity: It is common to experience mild, temporary tooth sensitivity during or immediately after the treatment. This occurs because the whitening agent makes the nerves temporarily more susceptible to temperature changes.
Management: Our dental team manages this by applying protective gels during Zoom Whitening and by prescribing specialized desensitizing gels or toothpaste for use in the days following treatment. Sensitivity usually subsides within 1-2 days.

Q4. Am I a suitable candidate for teeth whitening?

Teeth whitening is suitable for most individuals seeking to lighten natural teeth. However, a mandatory initial consultation is required to confirm your suitability.

You must consult a dentist if you have:

Untreated dental issues like tooth decay or gum disease, as these must be addressed first.
Existing dental restorations (crowns, fillings, or veneers) on visible teeth, as these will not lighten with the treatment and may result in uneven colour.
Severe intrinsic stains (e.g., from certain medications), which may require alternative cosmetic treatments.

Q5. How long will the results last?

The results of professional teeth whitening can be long-lasting, typically lasting between one to three years.

Longevity is primarily influenced by:

Lifestyle Habits: Avoiding stain-causing foods (coffee, tea, dark sauces) and tobacco products.
Oral Hygiene: Maintaining consistent brushing, flossing, and regular professional cleaning (scaling and polishing).

Your dentist will recommend a personalized maintenance plan, which may include using your custom take-home trays for periodic touch-ups.
