Professional teeth whitening in Bath
From tea and coffee to red wine or smoking, everyday lifestyle choices affect the colour of our teeth. Even when we take good care of our teeth, they naturally lose some of their whiteness as we get older.
Professional teeth whitening, carried out under the supervision of a dentist, is one of the safest and least invasive ways to brighten your smile. At Green Park Dental in Bath city centre, we offer dentist-led whitening tailored to you, so you can achieve a brighter, natural-looking smile with confidence.
How home teeth whitening works
1. Your whitening consultation
Your treatment starts with a visit to the practice, where your dentist will check that your teeth and gums are healthy and that whitening is suitable for you.
2. Custom-fitted whitening trays
Your dentist will take impressions which are used to create a set of trays that fit neatly over your teeth. We then give you your teeth whitening kit, with your trays and the whitening gel, to use at home.
3. Whitening at home, at your own pace
We normally recommend wearing the trays for 4 to 6 hours per session. The number of sessions depends on the shade you would like to achieve, and you simply stop when you are happy with the colour of your teeth. Most people begin to see results in as little as three sessions, while a brighter result can take up to 14 applications.
Is teeth whitening safe?
In the UK, teeth whitening should only be carried out by a dentist or another registered dental professional working on a dentist's prescription. Whitening offered by beauty salons or bought online can use unregulated products and may damage your teeth and gums. Read more about professional teeth whitening vs beauty salon whitening.
Teeth whitening FAQs
How long do teeth whitening results last?
Results vary from person to person. With good oral hygiene, regular hygiene visits and occasional top-ups, many patients enjoy their brighter smile for several years. Cutting down on staining foods, drinks and smoking will help your results last longer.
Will whitening make my teeth sensitive?
Some people notice mild, temporary sensitivity during treatment. Your dentist will advise you on how to manage this and can adjust your whitening routine if needed.
Will whitening work on crowns, veneers or fillings?
Whitening only lightens natural teeth, not crowns, veneers or fillings. Your dentist will discuss this with you at your consultation and explain your options, such as veneers, if needed.
Am I suitable for teeth whitening?
Most adults with healthy teeth and gums are suitable. Whitening is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Your dentist will confirm whether it is right for you.
