What is professional teeth whitening?

Professional teeth whitening is a safe, effective cosmetic treatment that lightens the shade of your teeth by breaking down surface and deep stains. Unlike over-the-counter products, dentist-grade whitening uses professional-strength peroxide gels that deliver faster, more dramatic results.

At Krishna Dental, we offer both in-office whitening for instant results and custom at-home trays for gradual whitening. In-office treatments are completed in 45 to 60 minutes, while at-home kits deliver beautiful results over 2 to 3 weeks with the convenience of treatment at your schedule.

Common causes of discolouration

Coffee, tea & wine

Dark beverages and acidic drinks are leading causes of tooth discoloration. Their pigments stick to tooth enamel over time, creating stubborn stains.

Tobacco use

Smoking and chewing tobacco cause severe, yellow-brown stains that are difficult to remove with regular brushing alone.

Age & natural wear

As you age, the protective enamel layer thins, revealing the darker dentin underneath. This is a natural, inevitable process.

Medications

Certain antibiotics (like tetracycline), antihistamines, and other medications can cause intrinsic tooth discoloration over time.

The whitening process

01

Dental examination

We examine your teeth and gums to ensure they're healthy and suitable for whitening. We'll address any cavities or gum issues first.

02

Shade assessment

We determine your current tooth shade using a professional shade guide. We'll discuss your desired shade and what's realistically achievable.

03

Protective preparation

We protect your gums with a barrier and apply a desensitising agent if you have sensitive teeth. Your lips are protected with petroleum jelly.

04

Whitening application

Professional-grade whitening gel is carefully applied to the front surface of each tooth. The gel is left to work for 15-minute intervals, often with activating light.

05

Results review

We rinse away the gel and check your new shade. You'll see dramatic results immediately. We apply a fluoride treatment to strengthen enamel.

Frequently asked questions

Professional whitening can lighten teeth by 4 to 8 shades in a single visit, depending on your starting shade and the extent of staining. At-home whitening over 2 to 3 weeks typically achieves 3 to 5 shades of improvement. Results vary based on your individual tooth composition.
Results typically last 6 to 12 months. The duration depends on your habits and diet. Maintenance visits every 6 months help keep your smile bright. Avoiding dark beverages like coffee, tea, and red wine, plus good oral hygiene, extends results longer.
Most patients experience minimal to no sensitivity. We use desensitising treatments before and after whitening to protect your teeth. If you have naturally sensitive teeth, we use lower concentrations and shorter application times. Any sensitivity that does occur is temporary and mild.
Yes, professional teeth whitening is completely safe when performed by trained dentists. We use professional-grade products formulated to be safe for enamel and gums. Over-the-counter kits cannot match the safety standards and precision that professional whitening offers.
Professional teeth whitening at Krishna Dental is affordable and offers excellent value. In-office whitening is a one-time investment that delivers immediate, dramatic results. At-home whitening kits are also available at competitive prices. Call us at 086742 44241 for current pricing and special packages.
Whitening is not recommended if you have untreated cavities (the gel can enter and irritate the tooth), active gum disease, or are pregnant. If you have very sensitive teeth, enamel erosion, or recent fillings and crowns, we'll discuss alternatives or extra precautions. Come in for a consultation and we'll determine if whitening is right for you.
