Over time, common substances like coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco can stain or discolour your teeth.
Teeth whitening typically involves the use of a dental-grade bleaching agent applied to the enamel of your teeth. The active ingredient helps break down stains on the tooth’s surface while protecting its enamel.
At Lillybrook Dental, this process is administered under the supervision of a registered clinician. We offer both in-chair whitening and professionally supervised take-home options, depending on your needs. We offer a complimentary consultation to discuss your options, explain how the procedure works, and help you make an informed decision.
When performed by a registered dental professional, teeth whitening is considered a low-risk procedure for many patients.
However, it is not suitable for everyone. Our dentists will assess your teeth and gums and advise on whether this treatment is appropriate for you.
Our team will always prioritise your oral health and safety, and explain any potential risks involved before proceeding. Some patients may experience temporary tooth sensitivity following treatment.
In-chair teeth whitening appointments generally take around 90 minutes.
If you use a take-home whitening kit prescribed by our dentists, you’ll apply a series of treatments over 1–2 weeks.
Costs can vary depending on your dental needs and the method chosen.
At Lillybrook Dental, we will provide a clear outline of fees during your consultation before proceeding with any treatment.
