✨ Teeth Whitening – Brighten Your Smile Safely
What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that lightens the colour of your teeth and removes stains or discolouration. It is one of the fastest and most effective ways to enhance your smile.
We offer safe, professional whitening treatments that deliver better and longer-lasting results than over-the-counter products.
Why Do Teeth Become Stained?
Teeth can become discoloured due to:
- Coffee, tea, and red wine
- Smoking or tobacco use
- Age-related enamel wear
- Certain medications
- Poor oral hygiene
Professional whitening helps restore a brighter, more youthful smile.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
Whitening gels containing peroxide break down stains on the enamel and dentine, making teeth appear lighter.
The treatment is carefully controlled to ensure safe and even results.
How Long Does Teeth Whitening Last?
Results typically last 6 months to 2 years, depending on:
- Diet and lifestyle habits
- Oral hygiene
- Smoking or staining foods/drinks
Top-up treatments can help maintain your results.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
Yes. When performed by a dental professional, teeth whitening is safe and effective. We assess your oral health before treatment to ensure suitability.

Some patients may experience temporary sensitivity, but this usually resolves within a few days. We use techniques and products to minimise discomfort.
