Cosmetic
Teeth whitening
Custom trays and professional gel, used at home over two weeks. Most people lighten two to four shade tabs.
We make trays from a scan of your teeth and give you carbamide peroxide gel to wear for an hour or overnight. Gradual home whitening is gentler on sensitivity than single-session in-chair bleaching and lasts as long.
Whitening lightens natural enamel only: fillings and crowns keep their colour. We check for those first so the result is even.
