How does dentist-guided home whitening work?
Home whitening uses a peroxide gel in a dentist-made tray or a carefully selected product, after checking that the teeth and gums are suitable.
How does a whitening tray help peroxide reach stains?
A tray holds gel against enamel, allowing peroxide to diffuse into the tooth and break down stain molecules. Ill-fitting trays can let gel contact the gums, and pre-existing sensitivity or untreated disease can make whitening uncomfortable.
What happens before you begin a home whitening course?
A dentist examines the mouth, records the starting shade, treats active disease, makes or selects a tray, and explains gel amount and wear time. Use only the instructed quantity, keep gel off the gums, and store it away from children.
When should you have a dental examination before whitening?
Have a dental examination before starting if you have decay, gum recession, cracks, enamel defects, or visible restorations. Stop treatment and contact the dentist for marked sensitivity, ulceration, or persistent gum irritation.
Is your particular stain suitable for home bleaching?
Is this stain suitable for home bleaching? Who will make or check the tray? What should I do about crowns, fillings, sensitivity, or uneven colour?
Frequently asked questions
How long should I wear a tray?

Can home whitening fix one dark tooth?
A single dark tooth may have internal discoloration and often needs a diagnosis before choosing internal bleaching or another treatment.
