Teeth Whitening Procedure
If you want to have whiter teeth, you’ll need to make several visits to the dental surgery over a couple of months.
In-Chair Whitening
During this procedure, a whitening product is painted on your teeth, and then a light is shone on them to activate the whitening agent. In-chair whitening normally takes about an hour.
At-Home Whitening
Your Cheltenham dentist will take impressions of your teeth to make a mould and instruct you how to use it with the teeth whitening gel.
Using your mouthguard, apply the gel for a specific period of time for over 2 to 4 weeks.
Some teeth whitening gels can be soaked on the teeth for up to 8 hours each time, which shortens the treatment time to 1 week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is teeth whitening safe?
Why would I need my teeth whitened?
Everyone is different, and just as our hair and skin colour are different from each other, so do our teeth.
Very few people are born with naturally white teeth, and our teeth can also become more discoloured as we grow older.
