Is it better to get teeth whitening done at a dentist?

When whitening your teeth, it is always recommended that you do so under the directions of a dentist.

If your dentist is not involved in your teeth whitening treatment, you risk choosing a product that is too harsh for your enamel. This can leave you with damage and sensitivity. Additionally, you may select a treatment type that will not lift specific kinds of stains.

When you whiten your smile with a dentist, you know the ingredients are okay and the product has been deemed safe and effective for your unique oral health profile.

Teeth Whitening in Oatley, NSW

You can opt for in-chair whitening, which is the fastest option. Or you may choose a take-home kit to lighten your teeth according to your schedule. Your dentist will assess your teeth and let you know which is best for your needs and level of discolouration.

Typically, the first step is a teeth cleaning to encourage our whitening product to penetrate enamel pores better and lift away stains.
