Yes, when carried out by a registered dental professional. Extensive research and clinical studies have shown that whitening is one of the safest cosmetic dental procedures available.

This depends on the person and their oral habits. Whitening should be repeated every 6 – 12 months for both In Office and Take Home solutions. Without a touch up, your teeth may start to discolour again with time. Speak to your dentist to discuss touch up options.

Using a take home whitening system, it can take approximately 5 – 14 days.

The majority of individuals who follow their dentist’s directions for use will have no negative side effects. Some people, on the other hand, might experience transient sensitivity (dull or sharp, sensitivity to hot or cold). Typically, this will go away after several hours of stopping the therapy, and there won’t be any residual issues. To decrease sensitivity the frequency or duration of the tray wearing may be reduced, or a desensitiser can be used to soothe the teeth. To avoid irritation, skip fizzy drinks, citrus foods and beverages.
