Teeth Whitening

Tooth whitening is proven safe and effective to improve the whiteness of your smile.

2 types of whitening are available, and currently Ascot Vale Smiles is offering home tooth whitening:

Take home tooth whitening

  • Individual customised gel trays are fabricated
  • Patients are given the whitening gel and trays to use at home, with instructions
  • Some gels are used 1 hour nightly, other gels may be used overnight
  • The teeth improve in colour over the course of 2-3 weeks

In office tooth whitening

  • Teeth are isolated to protect the lips, gums and soft tissue
  • A strong version of whitening gel is professionally applied in the dental chair
  • Over the duration of 1-2 hours, multiple applications of the whitening gel is applied

Tooth whitening is only safe to use on patients who have had a thorough exam and medical history check. The examination will determine your suitability for tooth whitening. A common but temporary side affect is sensitive teeth during and shortly after tooth whitening is performed.
