It’s like asking a personal trainer to help you get abs and then asking how long you’ll keep them. A trainer can only do their bit to help — maintaining the results is up to you. So, how long your teeth whitening lasts depends on what you put in your mouth. 

Professional teeth whitening results can last for many years. But If you’re drinking black coffee, eating curry, and smoking, your teeth will darken more quickly. 

The good news is that with a yearly cost-effective top-up, it’s easy to maintain your pearly whites.

Tooth whitening is one of the safest, easiest, and most cost-effective solutions to lighten and brighten your smile. Our experts are dentists and will check thoroughly to ensure you’re suitable for treatment. Adverse reactions to gentle whitening are almost unheard of.

For safe, gentle, effective results, it’s best to see a dentist. In the UK, only dental professionals can whiten teeth with solutions that are clinically proven to work. 

Your local salon may offer whitening, but they can’t legally use the real deal, so it’s always best to have safe and professional teeth whitening done by a dentist.

It is essential to understand that the amount of whitening required depends on how dark the teeth are at the start and the amount of staining on the teeth. Professional teeth whitening is generally a gradual, gentle procedure, typically taking three to four weeks.

We always recommend you store your teeth whitening solutions in the fridge. This is because the active ingredients (the bit that makes your teeth lighten) inside the tubes last longer when kept cooler.

There’ll be expiration dates on the gels, generally when the solution stops working.

You can, but the difference it’ll make is negligible. The way whitening toothpaste works is that it’s more abrasive than conventional toothpaste. It’ll lighten minor stains, but it won’t remove tartar or heavy staining and won’t lighten your teeth.

Sensitivity can happen, but we have given you tricks and tips to minimise it as much as possible. It’s mildly annoying but won’t cause any long-term problems whatsoever. If you have sensitive teeth, we can use more gentle solutions to get you the same great results.

If you get your teeth whitened by a dentist, it’s extremely unlikely the solutions will make your gums recede. In fact, next to no chance whatsoever. 

Why? We’ll make a bespoke tray designed only to fit you, so we know that solutions won’t leak out all over your gums. We’ll also do a full gum assessment before we start, pick the best solutions for your situation, demonstrate how to use them safely and always be on the end of a phone to help. 

No beauty salon horror stories here.
