Dentist-supervised teeth whitening is a safe, non-invasive and effective way of removing stains and discolouration from your teeth. We offer the Philips Zoom! At-home whitening system, a world-renowned whitening system that fits in around your lifestyle.
Teeth whitening uses hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide whitening gels to break down the molecules responsible for staining your teeth. These are used with custom-made whitening trays, which are worn for 4-7 hours a day as part of the Philips Zoom! System.

What is Philips Zoom! Night White?
Philips Zoom! is a fast-acting at-home whitening treatment that is applied using custom-made whitening trays. As a zero-sensitivity formula, this whitening system is suitable for patients with sensitive teeth and improves the lustre and shade of your smile.
Benefits of teeth whitening:
We take the welfare of our patients extremely seriously, and we will always make clinical decisions that put your long-term medical well-being first.
Our practice is designed to provide a calm and comfortable experience, with a focus on personalised care to meet your unique needs. Prior to your teeth whitening treatment, we can carry out a scale and polish to remove plaque and tartar stains. This pre-treatment cleaning will ensure you get the most out of the whitening process.
We use ultrasonic hand scaling equipment and Airflow® tooth polishing to remove plaque and tartar from every last corner of your mouth. What’s more, this method is known for being gentle on your teeth.

During your consultation, your dentist will examine your teeth for any signs of decay and gum disease. As responsible dentists, we will only go ahead with cosmetic dental treatment if your teeth and oral soft tissues are in good health. We will ask you about your treatment goals and answer any questions you might have about treatment.
We recommend a pre-treatment hygienist cleaning to remove plaque and tartar from your gum line. With these stains removed prior to whitening, the whitening gels can then work the maximum amount of magic on your teeth. Your dentist will take impressions of your teeth, which are sent away to the Philips dental laboratory.
Once your whitening trays are ready, you can start your treatment, wearing the trays for 4-7 hours, either day or night – choose when you wear your trays to suit your lifestyle.
Your dentist will ask you to come in for a review. If your teeth have not yet reached the desired shade, your dentist may recommend a few days of additional use with the whitening gels.

Professional teeth whitening uses safe levels of hydrogen and carbamide gels.
These do not damage your tooth enamel when used for the correct amount of hours and days, as stipulated by your dentist.
Teeth whitening should only ever be carried out by a medical professional – this is the only way to guarantee it is performed using safe levels of the chemicals used for whitening.
You can expect the effects to last for between 6 and 12 months, at which point you may wish to have a top-up to maintain the original result.
The effect of teeth whitening is less likely to last as long if you smoke, eat, or drink products that can stain the teeth, for example, red wine, tea, coffee and berries.
Teeth can be stained on the surface by food and drinks such as tea, coffee and red wine.
Tobacco smoking also stains the teeth. Acidic food and drinks such as fizzy drinks, fruit juice, and yoghurt cause erosion of the outer enamel layer. This allows the colour of the underlying yellow dentine to shine through, making the teeth appear more yellow.
Philips Zoom! has been proven to whiten teeth by up to 8 shades.
If you would like a whiter tooth shade, you may wish to consider veneers.
