Who Needs Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a popular choice for individuals who are looking to improve the appearance of their teeth by removing stains and achieving a brighter, more attractive smile.
It is suitable for those who may have discoloured teeth due to factors such as the consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco use, aging, or genetics.
Additionally, individuals who desire a confidence boost and wish to enhance their overall appearance often seek teeth whitening as a cosmetic solution. It’s important to consult with a dental professional to determine if teeth whitening is suitable for your specific needs and oral health.

The Procedure
Once you’ve both made the decision to go ahead, you’ll then be fitted for a custom-made gum tray. Whitening gel is placed in this tray, which you wear for a few hours at a time at home. Your tooth-whitening treatment can be customised to give you the degree of whitening that you desire (this is dependent on the degree of staining). So that everyone can benefit from this very effective cosmetic treatment, we offer a range of competitive pricing and finance options.
