Tooth Whitening

Teeth whitening is an extremely popular procedure as it can be an effective and non-invasive way of refreshing your smile. 

Stirling smiles dental offers this procedure as either an in-office (Philips ZOOM) or a take-home system.

In-Office Procedure (Phillips ZOOM)

Zoom whitening is performed in the dental chair and offers immediate results. The procedure usually takes one hour and involves the following steps:

  1. A protective barrier to ensure your safety is carefully placed over your gums and root surfaces 
  2. Your lips and cheeks are retracted from your teeth using a small plastic device 
  3. A whitening gel containing hydrogen peroxide is then applied to the teeth
  4. The ZOOM blue LED light is then used to accelerate the whitening process and remains on for about 15 minutes where the gel is then washed off
  5. The procedure can be repeated 3 to 4 times  
  6. At the end of the procedure a post treatment desensitizing paste is used to help protect and reduce sensitivity in the teeth and gums

After the procedure the results will be obvious immediately and your teeth will be notably lighter. 

At-Home Procedure

Our dentists can also offer you a take home whitening kit which involves creating a custom made tray for your upper and lower jaws that fit snugly and comfortably. 

At home you will fill the trays with the recommended amount of whitening gel and wear the trays for the prescribed time, usually about an hour at a time where results can be achieved usually after 2 weeks. 

The trays can be used for future touch ups and additional whitening gel can be purchased from our practice.

A thorough dental examination is highly recommended to determine whether you’re an appropriate candidate for whitening. As there are various reasons why teeth become discoloured.  So please contact us at Stirling smiles for a consultation.
