Tooth whitening is one of the most popular and accessible cosmetic dental treatments, delivering noticeable results with minimal intervention. At Dr A.I. Thomas & Partners, we offer professional-grade whitening treatments that are significantly more effective and safer than over-the-counter products. Our in-practice whitening sessions use carefully formulated bleaching agents activated under controlled conditions, while take-home whitening kits with custom-fitted trays allow you to maintain your results at your own convenience.
Discolouration caused by coffee, tea, red wine, smoking, or the natural ageing process responds well to professional whitening. We conduct a thorough assessment beforehand to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy and that whitening is appropriate for you. Patients typically notice several shades of improvement, and results can last for months with proper maintenance. Our team advises on aftercare to help prolong the effect and keep your smile looking its brightest.
What to expect
- We start with a shade assessment and confirm that your teeth and gums are healthy and suitable for whitening
- Custom-fitted trays are made from impressions of your teeth — these take about a week to prepare and collect
- You wear the trays at home with the whitening gel for a two-week programme; results are visible within the first few days
- Some tooth sensitivity during treatment is normal and resolves once you stop using the gel
