Custom trays and professional gel that lighten the natural shade of the teeth.
What is involved
Healthy teeth and gums with general discolouration
Whitening lightens the natural tooth, and it does nothing to crowns, veneers or fillings — which is why the examination comes first, so you know what the result will actually look like. We take impressions for trays made to fit your own teeth, and you wear them at home for a fortnight. Sensitivity during treatment is common and settles afterwards.

Every case is different. These are examples of work carried out here, not a prediction of your own result — that can only be given after an examination.
How it works
01
A full look at the teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues, with the radiographs that are due. Nothing is treated at this appointment.
02
We go through what we found, what the options are, and what each one costs. You take the plan away; there is no pressure to decide in the chair.
03
Booked in the order that matters clinically — pain and disease first, then function, then appearance. Longer appointments if you are nervous.
04
A check that the work has settled, then a recall interval set by your own risk rather than a fixed six months.
