Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental treatment that enhances the appearance of your teeth by brightening their shade. At The Dental Suite Group, we offer professional teeth whitening solutions that will leave your smile looking whiter, fresher, and more vibrant. Our highly skilled dentists will first assess your suitability for teeth whitening during a comprehensive dental examination. Once we confirm that you are a suitable candidate, we’ll guide you through the available options, including our teeth whitening trays.
Does Teeth Whitening Hurt?
Many people wonder if teeth whitening causes discomfort. At The Dental Suite Group, we prioritise your comfort. Our deep teeth whitening treatment is designed to cater to people with sensitive teeth who may not be able to use home whitening trays comfortably.
While some patients may experience temporary sensitivity during or after the whitening session, this is usually mild and occurs towards the end of the treatment when optimal whitening results have been achieved. The sensitivity typically subsides within a few hours. To alleviate discomfort, using toothpaste made for sensitive teeth is advised.
Successful Teeth Whitening
How Long Do Teeth Whitening Results Last?
The longevity of your teeth whitening results depends largely on your lifestyle habits. Factors such as smoking, drinking red wine, tea, coffee, or consuming foods that cause staining can affect how long your teeth stay white. On average, you can expect the results of a professional teeth whitening treatment to last between 1 to 3 years.
For those who smoke or regularly consume staining foods, we recommend maintaining your results with teeth whitening trays. These custom trays allow for convenient at-home whitening touch-ups whenever needed. Regular hygiene appointments at one of our clinics can also help prolong the brightness of your smile, as our expert dental hygienists will remove surface stains and ensure optimal oral health.
Teeth whitening results can vary from person to person. While professional teeth whitening can lighten teeth by several shades, there is a natural limit to how white your teeth can get without undergoing our more invasive treatments like porcelain veneers.
We offer teeth whitening in Carlow, Rathdrum and Athy. Contact us and book a consultation with our specialist team.
Teeth Whitening Trays
If you prefer the flexibility of whitening your teeth at home, teeth whitening trays are an excellent option. At The Dental Suite Group, we provide custom-made whitening trays designed to fit your teeth perfectly. This treatment involves taking precise impressions of your teeth, which are then used to create personalized trays in our dental laboratory.
Once your trays are ready, you'll be given a professional-grade whitening gel to use at home. Simply fill the trays with the gel and wear them for one hour per day over a period of 10 days to three weeks, depending on the desired level of whitening. This option offers you the convenience of achieving a whiter smile at your own pace, with results comparable to in-office treatments
