Tooth whitening is a safe, easy and very effective procedure. The dentists at iDental have performed hundreds of whitening procedures and we have researched the best and safest methods. The whitening procedures we use are long-lasting and are recommended for those who want brighter, whiter teeth. Most commonly, we recommend whitening gels that have a low in concentration of either hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, and are of thick consistency to achieve the best result.


Frequently asked questions


How do I get whiter teeth?
There are two methods:
1. Home whitening: An upper and lower impression of your teeth are taken. Whitening trays are made especially for you. When at home, the trays are filled with the whitening gel provided. After wearing these for a few 30 minute sessions, you will notice a brighter smile.

2. In-office whitening: Whitening gel is applied onto your teeth carefully during a 60 minute whitening session. A change of approximately 3-4 shades is usual. For further whitening, this process can be repeated, or at home whitening can be used.

Whitening gels have been tested in research laboratories all across the world. iDental has specifically chosen a concentration of gel that has been proven to have no detrimental effect on teeth, fillings or gums.

How long does it take?
A 30 minute daily application of the home-use whitening gel, for around 14 days. This will vary according to the colour you wish to achieve, along with the original colour of your teeth.

The results typically last for some years. This will vary according to your dietary habits (including smoking) and your general oral hygiene. This can be maintained with regular examination and a cleaning program to remove external stains and build-ups.
