Teeth Whitening
Whitening your teeth can eliminate years of staining caused by coffee, tea, soda, wine, tobacco, medications, and age. It can help give you a beautiful, healthy looking smile and have a fundamental impact on your appearance and confidence.
Depending on the whitening method, results can be dramatic. Our in-clinic whitening system can lighten teeth up to 8 shades in less than an hour. It’s not only fast and convenient, it’s also one of the most affordable cosmetic procedures available.
Professionally-applied whitening will work faster, and protect the sensitive gums and tooth-root surfaces better than over-the-counter whitening products. Our whitening systems use high-concentration bleaching agents that are not available over the counter, plus their non-abrasive technology has been proven safe for gums and tooth enamel.
In-Clinic Whitening: This technique offers the fastest and most effective results, and there are no messy strips or molds. After confirming you don’t have tooth decay or gum disease, we assess your current tooth colour. We apply a protective barrier over your gums and use a retractor to hold your lips and cheeks away from your teeth while the professional-strength hydrogen peroxide gel is applied. Once the gel is removed, you’ll be able to see the results immediately.
Take-Home Whitening: This is another effective way to whiten your teeth, although the results will be less dramatic, will take more time, and you have to play a greater role in ensuring the best possible result. The amount of time that the trays are left in depends on the take-home whitening product. In some cases, you will leave the trays in for about an hour while other products may suggest wearing the trays overnight while you sleep. Depending on the system you use, it can take several weeks to achieve your desired level of whiteness.
How long your white, bright smile lasts can vary from person to person. For many people, a minor touch-up every so often, either at home or at the clinic, can keep your smile bright and beautiful for years.
