Cosmetic Teeth Whitening is the #1 requested cosmetic treatment procedure and is second only to hair treatments in the beauty world. More people than you might imagine have their teeth whitened. A nice bright, white smile can make a big difference in the way a person feels about themselves and can help boost confidence in almost any social setting.

Almost everyone can benefit from having his or her teeth whitened. However we do not recommend whitening for the following:

Children under the age of 16 as the pulp (nerve of the tooth) is enlarged until this age and whitening will cause irritation and sensitivity.

Pregnant and breastfeeding women, however you can seek advice from your obstetrician/paediatrician.

You cannot receive teeth whitening treatments if you are currently be taking photoreactive drugs or any of the following medication:
Chlorthiazide, Hydrochlorothiazide, Chlorthalidone, Naprosyn, Oxaprozin, Nabumetone , Pirozicam, Doxycycline, Ciprfloxacin, Ofloxacin,Psoralens, Democlocyline, Norfloxacin, Sparfloxacin,  Sulindac, Tetracycline, St. John’s Wart, Isotretinoin, Tretinoin

We recommend you seek advice from your GP or dentists before booking if you have:

Gum Disease

Can I whiten if I have braces or Invisalign?

If you are in active orthodontic treatment and have bands and/or brackets bonded or cemented to your teeth, please wait until after completion of treatment and all appliances have been removed before commencing any bleaching treatment. A lower tightly bonded lingual (tongue-side) wire retainer that was placed by an orthodontist after regular orthodontic treatment is fine to have in your mouth while bleaching is done.

It is recommended to hold of whitening your teeth for 3-6 months after having your braces removed. This is to ensure no cement residue remains on the teeth. If whitening is performed with residue on the teeth the results will be uneven.

There is no waiting period post Invisalign.

All oral piercings (tongue, cheeks, lips, or nose) must be removed prior to having any teeth whiting treatments done.

Do not have a teeth whitening treatment if you have gum disease or are requiring dental work.
