Sometimes all that’s needed to makeover your smile is professional teeth whitening. At Cheeky Grin Dental Port Stephens, we offer both in-chair and take-home options to give you the bright smile you can feel good about.
New Patients
What to Expect
We’ll begin with a consultation to talk about your goals and determine if whitening is a good option for you. Before proceeding, we’ll do a check-up and cleaning—the bleach won’t penetrate tartar, and it can create extreme sensitivity if you have cavities. So we’ll take care of those problems before we move forward.
- For our in-chair process, we’ll protect your gums, then apply the bleaching gel to your teeth. A special light is used to enhance the brightening effect, and it takes about one hour to achieve the desired shade.
- For take-home kits, we’ll provide you with custom trays and the bleaching gel. You can use it every day for about two weeks to achieve the brightness you’re looking for.
Benefits
Professional grade brightening products are more effective and safer than over-the-counter ones. People often use store products without cleaning first or addressing any cavities, leading to sensitivity and disappointing results. In addition, both in-chair and take-home professional options protect your gums from the gel.
Our options can last anywhere from a few months to two years, depending on what you eat and drink. Dark-coloured foods and beverages, such as red wine, coffee, blueberries and others, can stain the teeth and cause you to repeat the whitening process more frequently.
Whitening Restorations
Whiteners do not work on veneers, crowns or other restorations, which will make them stand out from your natural teeth that become lighter.
