Teeth Whitening

At-home kits, such as those that can be easily bought online, are usually not regulated and as such could cause tooth damage or sensitivity. Professional tooth whitening, including dentist-supervised home whitening, is considered a safer and more effective way to brighten your smile, producing excellent results in a short amount of time.

At our practice in Somerset, teeth whitening treatment costs from £350. We personalise every treatment based on your individual needs and preferences, and provide a full treatment plan with costs included at the start. Please talk to a member of our friendly team if you have any questions about our fees.

The most common side effect of dental whitening treatment is mild tooth sensitivity. This is temporary, and will fade within a day or two after treatment is complete. Sensitivity also doesn’t occur for every patient.

Most people are suitable candidates for professional teeth whitening, but it’s essential to have healthy teeth and gums first. We assess your teeth during your consultation to ensure you are suitable, and may recommend an appointment with our hygienist to get your oral health under control before your teeth whitening begins.

Typically, your brighter smile can last anywhere from six months to two years, largely depending on your diet and lifestyle. To help maintain your results for longer, it’s a good idea to avoid staining foods and drinks and keep up with an excellent oral hygiene routine at home.
