Whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures that people are considering nowadays. A bright, sparkling smile can make a huge difference for everyone and is a real treat before a special occasion as it brightens up the face instantly. The Teeth Whitening System makes it easier and faster than ever before and is taken home, where you can top up as necessary.

Seapoint’s Deep Teeth Whitening is often performed for people who have sensitive teeth and cannot wear trays for home whitening. Some, but not all, patients will experience sensitivity after whitening.

Usually, this will only occur towards the end of your whitening session when the benefits have been achieved. Some people may experience sensitivity in the hours after whitening, and using Sensodyne® toothpaste on your teeth can help alleviate this. Most people do not need any painkillers for this, but if you are anxious at all about the procedure, you may consider taking some gentle painkillers before your appointment.

This depends on any habits you may have, such as smoking, drinking red wine or eating staining foods. The less of these you consume, the longer the effects will last. Generally, you can expect 1-3 years. If you smoke, we recommend getting home whitening trays for top-ups when needed- Regular hygiene appointments can also help maintain your brightness.

There is a limit to how white your teeth will naturally go. Seapoint’s Deep Teeth Whitening will get your teeth as white as they can be without opting for porcelain veneers. Usually, your teeth can lighten by nine to twelve shades in one 90-minute session. This level of whiteness will vary from person to person.

Almost everyone sees the immediate effects of a treatment. However, teeth whitening may be more effective on some than on others. We can determine if you are a viable candidate for Teeth Whitening through a thorough, quick exam in our whitening suite, including a teeth shade assessment. This consultation is free of charge and can be done on the same day as whitening.

Yes, completely. Extensive research and clinical studies indicate that whitening teeth is safe. Many dentists consider teeth whitening the safest cosmetic dental procedure available. As with any teeth whitening product, whitening is not usually performed on anyone under 18 years of age and is not recommended for pregnant or lactating women. In certain circumstances, teeth whitening can be performed on children over 13 for discoloured teeth. Your dentist will decide if whitening is needed.

Yes. Consulting your dental professional is always the first step to whitening your teeth safely. Plus, over-the-counter teeth whitening strips, brush-on gels and toothpaste take weeks or months to whiten your teeth just a few shades. In-clinic whitening is clinically proven to whiten your teeth nine to twelve shades in just 1 session.

The active ingredient of the light-activated teeth whitening gel is hydrogen peroxide. As the Hydrogen Peroxide gel is broken down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching coloured substances while the structure of the teeth is unchanged. The Teeth Whitening light aids in activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface of the teeth.

The only side effect some people experience is temporary increased teeth sensitivity to cold. These symptoms disappear within 1-3 days after completion of the teeth whitening treatment.

The complete teeth whitening procedure takes just 90 minutes. The teeth whitening begins with a preparation period followed by 45 minutes. This is done in 3 sessions of 15 minutes. A hygiene appointment is recommended before the actual Teeth Whitening session if you have any tartar or staining on your teeth, they may not whiten as well as otherwise possible.

Tray whitening is a great and inexpensive way to whiten your teeth. It is often combined with Seapoint’s Deep Teeth Whitening so you can achieve instant results, and you will still have the whitening trays to use later to “top up” your teeth safely and effectively if you feel they have stained after time or after foods which are particularly strong in colour.

You cannot buy teeth whitening gels of the same strength and quality from a chemist as you can from your dentist. Moreover, the tray your dentist makes is custom-made and fits your teeth like a personal retainer. A tray you make yourself from a kit may leak gel into your mouth and allow saliva into the gel, reducing its effectiveness and damaging your gums.
