What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that helps lighten the colour of natural teeth by reducing stains and discolouration.
Unlike over-the-counter whitening products, professional whitening is provided under the supervision of a dentist, allowing treatment to be customized based on your oral health, existing restorations, and desired results.
Teeth whitening can help address:
- Coffee and tea stains
- Red wine staining
- Tobacco-related discolouration
- Age-related yellowing
- Surface stains from foods and beverages
- General dullness or loss of brightness
During your consultation, we will assess your smile and recommend the most appropriate whitening option for your needs.
Why Choose Professional Whitening Over Store-Bought Products?
Many patients try whitening strips, whitening toothpastes, or generic kits before seeking professional treatment. While some products may help remove minor surface stains, professional whitening offers greater customization and clinical oversight.
Benefits of professional whitening may include:
Customized Treatment
We evaluate your oral health and whitening goals before recommending a treatment approach. This helps ensure that the treatment is appropriate for your individual needs.
Care for Sensitive Teeth
If you have sensitive teeth or gum recession, we can recommend whitening options designed to improve your comfort throughout treatment.
Professional Guidance
Our team can identify factors that may affect whitening results, including existing crowns, veneers, bonding, or fillings that will not change colour during whitening treatment.
Predictable Results
Professional whitening systems are designed specifically for dental use and can help patients achieve noticeable improvements in tooth brightness.
What Causes Teeth to Become Discoloured?
Tooth discolouration can occur for a variety of reasons.
Internal Discolouration
Some forms of staining originate within the tooth and may be related to:
- Natural aging
- Previous dental trauma
- Certain medications
- Developmental conditions
- Changes within the tooth structure over time
During your consultation, we will determine the type of staining present and discuss whether whitening is likely to help achieve your goals.
Teeth Whitening Options at Aldershot Village Dental
Every patient is different, which is why we personalize treatment recommendations.
Depending on your needs, we may recommend:
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Ideal for patients seeking noticeable results in a shorter timeframe. Treatment is completed under professional supervision in our office.
Customized Take-Home Whitening
Some patients prefer the flexibility of whitening gradually at home using customized trays and professional-grade whitening gel provided by our dental team.
Professional Cleaning and Stain Removal
For patients with mild surface staining, a professional dental cleaning may help improve brightness by removing plaque, tartar, and external staining.
We will discuss which option is best suited to your smile goals and lifestyle.
Who Is a Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
Many adults with healthy teeth and gums may be candidates for professional whitening.
You may benefit from whitening if you have:
- Healthy teeth and gums
- Staining from foods and beverages
- Age-related discolouration
- Yellowing teeth
- A desire for a brighter smile before an important event
During your consultation, we will review your oral health and determine whether whitening is an appropriate treatment option.
