Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment designed to lighten the natural shade of your teeth and help your smile appear brighter and fresher.
Over time, teeth can become stained or discoloured due to everyday factors such as tea, coffee, red wine, smoking or natural ageing. Professional whitening can help reduce the appearance of staining while keeping your treatment guided by a dental professional.
At Henry Road Dental Practice, your dentist will assess your teeth and gums before advising whether teeth whitening may be suitable for you. This helps ensure your mouth is healthy enough for treatment and allows your dentist to explain what kind of result can realistically be achieved.
Your dentist will also talk you through the whitening options available, how the treatment works and how to maintain your results safely. Where appropriate, custom whitening trays or other dentist-approved options may be recommended.
Professional teeth whitening can help improve the brightness of your natural teeth while keeping your treatment safe and dentist-led.
Your dentist will advise whether teeth whitening is suitable for you and explain how to care for your teeth before, during and after treatment.

Not always. Your dentist will check your teeth and gums first to make sure whitening is suitable and to identify any dental concerns that may need attention before treatment.
Whitening treatment works on natural tooth enamel. Crowns, bridges and fillings do not whiten in the same way, so your dentist will explain how this may affect your overall result.
Results vary from person to person and can depend on oral care, diet and lifestyle habits. Avoiding frequent staining foods, drinks and smoking can help maintain your result for longer.
Professional whitening is carried out with dental guidance, helping to protect your teeth and gums. Your dentist can recommend a suitable approach based on your mouth and your smile goals.
