Teeth whitening is one of our most popular treatments here at our Kippa-Ring dental practice and has become one of the fastest, most effective way to noticeably boost your smile. Still unsure? Check out our results – it’s easy to see why.
Teeth whitening treatments can deliver nearly instantaneous results, however some patients choose to set up a treatment plan to help maintain results. It is important to understand and feel fully informed about the treatment before establishing any treatment plans moving forward.
Teeth whitening can benefit your smile in many ways. Some of these benefits include:
In most circumstances, our teeth whitening treatment causes minimal to no discomfort. Our custom trays are designed to minimise gum exposure to the dental bleach which limits sensitivity and burning. If you already have tooth sensitivity or pre-existing cavities, you may experience some discomfort, so it is important you let your dentist know of this concern prior to undertaking any treatment.
Before the whitening treatment, our team will provide you with a teeth whitening chart and assist you in deciding which shade is best suited to your overall complexion and desired results. A general rule of thumb we use for our teeth whitening patients is to aim for a shade similar to the whites of your eyes. This will give an aesthetically pleasing and overall harmonious appearance.
Once you’ve undergone your whitening treatment(s), there are some foods and drinks our team advises you stay away from to maintain optimal results. Foods and drinks that may re-stain your new, white teeth may include dark coloured or heavily pigmented drinks such as teas, coffee, red wine, colas, as well as other acidic drinks such as fruit juices, alcohols and carbonated drinks. Some foods to avoid are those containing a lot of colourants which may include soy sauce, ketchup, curries, as well as dark fruits, berries.

For individuals with sensitive teeth, it may be preferable to choose professional teeth whitening treatments carried out by a dentist. This alternative provides the benefit of being under the care of a qualified expert who can guarantee the safety of your teeth throughout the procedure.
The extent to which your teeth can be whitened depends on several factors, such as the initial colour of your teeth, the cause of the discolouration, the whitening method used, and your personal response to the treatment.
Typically, professional teeth whitening procedures like in-office whitening or take-home kits offered by a dentist can lighten teeth by 2–6 shades for most individuals. However, results may vary depending on the individual, and some may experience more or less noticeable whitening effects.
