A whiter smile can sometimes boost your confidence, especially if you feel self-conscious about the colour of your teeth. Knowing how and where to get your teeth whitened safely and effectively is not always obvious. Professional teeth whitening, which can whiten your teeth in practice, in as little as one hour‡.
Following an initial consultation† with your dentist, when you have your Philips Zoom! treatment, it takes an hour, as part of a two-hour appointment, so you’ll just sit back and relax while your dentist takes care of everything. We’ll also give you some top-up trays to use at home to help maintain your whiter smile.
Your dentist will make sure your teeth and gums are healthy enough for whitening. They’ll also talk to you about the shade of white you want to achieve. If everything looks fine, they’ll take impressions of your teeth so they can make your custom trays to use at home.
When your trays are ready, you’ll come back for your whitening session. Your dentist will first protect your gums before applying the whitening solution and then switch on the special blue lamp, which activates the solution. The whitening is done in four 15-minute sessions, but you’ll need to allow two hours for the whole appointment.
Before you leave, your dentist will give you your top-up kit and explain how to use it at home. They’ll also discuss how to hold onto your brighter smile. This includes regular deep cleaning and polishing with our hygienist, effective cleaning at home, and cutting down on smoking or drinks that can stain your teeth.
