The Science Behind Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is a safe and non-invasive cosmetic dental procedure designed to eliminate stains and discoloration from your teeth.
Age, smoking, and the consumption of staining beverages such as coffee, tea, and red wine can cause teeth to become darker than their original shade.
The teeth whitening procedure typically uses whitening agents such as hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide, which break down the bonds in stain molecules, making them weak and easy to remove.
At the Dental Care Centre, we provide convenient at-home teeth whitening kits to enhance your smile.
At-Home Whitening Kits: Our team will create custom-fitted trays tailored to your unique dental structure and provide you with professional-grade whitening gel. You can whiten your teeth at your convenience by following our easy-to-understand instructions until you achieve your desired brightness level, and you can continue to maintain that brightness for a lifetime.

The Teeth Whitening Process

The teeth whitening process at the Dental Care Centre for at-home whitening kits consists of two phases: the dental office and the at-home phases.

Dental Office Phase

Your journey to a brighter smile begins with an initial consultation with our London’s top teeth whitening experts. During this session, we will:

• Assess your current dental health.
• Discuss your teeth whitening goals and expectations.
• Determine the most suitable teeth whitening method specifically for your needs.

After deciding to proceed with at-home whitening kits, we will take an impression of your teeth to create custom-fit trays tailored to your specific teeth alignment.
At your next visit, you will receive your custom-fit trays, along with professional-grade whitening gel and detailed instructions on how to use them, including the recommended duration for daily use until you achieve your desired level of whiteness.

Home phase

Follow the instructions provided by our dental experts carefully to ensure safe and effective teeth whitening.

Step 1: Preparing for Treatment
Before starting your home teeth whitening journey, it is essential to:

• Ensure your teeth are clean and free of any debris or plaque.
• Brush and floss thoroughly before proceeding.
• Inspect the custom-fitted trays to make sure they are clean and undamaged.
• Familiarise yourself with the provided instructions to ensure a complete understanding of the process.

Step 2: Applying the Whitening Gel

1. Filling the Trays
   • Squeeze a small amount of whitening gel into the trays. Be careful not to overfill; a small drop in each compartment is usually sufficient.
   • Spread the gel evenly throughout the tray, ensuring that it covers the entire front surface of your teeth.
2. Inserting the trays
   • Carefully position the filled trays over your upper and lower teeth. They should fit comfortably and snugly.
   • Wipe away any excess gel that may come into contact with your gums, as it can cause irritation.
3. Wearing the Trays
   • The recommended wear time for our home teeth whitening kits varies depending on the product. Follow the instructions provided, but most treatments typically require 30 minutes to one hour per session.
   • During this time, you may continue with your usual activities; the trays are designed to be discreet and comfortable.
4. Monitoring the progress
   • At-home whitening kits provide a gradual transition for your tooth colour.
   • You can use the provided shade guide to track the progress of your whitening treatment. Results may become noticeable after just a few sessions.

Step 3: Post-Whitening Care

1. Removing the trays
   • After the recommended wear time, gently remove the trays from your teeth.
   • Rinse the trays and your mouth thoroughly with water.
2. Cleaning and Storing
   • Clean the trays using a soft toothbrush and mild, non-abrasive toothpaste.
   • Store the trays in their protective case to keep them safe and hygienic.

Maintenance and Post-Treatment Care

To maintain your newly brightened smile, avoid staining foods and beverages such as coffee, tea, and red wine. Additionally, practice good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly. Schedule regular check-ups and dental hygiene visits to maintain your oral health.
Depending on your lifestyle and habits, you may require occasional touch-up treatments. Our kits often include extra gel for this purpose.
