Teeth Whitening

About Your Appointment

Your appointment will begin with a simple chat to find out about your lifestyle and whether you have had your teeth whitened before. If not, don’t worry, we will talk you through the process step by step.

1. A shade guide is used to let you check the shade of your teeth before and after the appointment.

2. The teeth are given a gentle cleanse and scrub. At this stage any recent surface stains are removed and the enamel is given a gentle exfoliation

3. A textured accelerator wipe is coated with an activation spray and you will give your teeth a brush. As well as giving the teeth a deep cleanse, which helps draw the gel into the pores of your enamel.

4. A sterile mouth guard is then removed from a sealed foil packet and non peroxide gel is applied. You then place the mouth guard into your mouth and put on a pair of protective goggles.

5. Sit back, relax and let the teeth whitening gel and laser light get to work! The laser light creates an oxidation reaction which will remove stains and tooth discoloration from the inside out.

A full appointment consists of 3 back to back 20 minute session and most customers see an 8 – 12 shade improvement.
