TEETH WHITENING

At Geelong Smile Studio we have a whitening solution for every budget. We can customise this treatment to anyone and any colour teeth. 

Is Teeth Whitening safe?

Teeth whitening used under professional supervision is safe, however it is not advised for children under 15 years of age, or pregnant or lactating women.

Chairside Tooth Whitening Procedure

Pre Teeth Whitening

After you have contacted Geelong Smile Studio requesting a chairside teeth whitening procedure, a smile assessment appointment will be made.

This 20-minute consultation will involve assessment of your gum health and suitability of your teeth for chairside whitening.

It is imperative that your oral hygiene and gum health be of a very high standard prior to your whitening procedure.

A visit to the dental hygienist may be prescribed prior to the tooth whitening procedure to ensure optimal whitening results.

Impressions of your teeth will also be taken at the smile assessment to make your customised whitening trays.

Take Home Tooth Whitening

The Home Tooth Whitening Process

First we take an impression of your teeth. Then 3-4 days later, you will be provided with customised whitening trays which you will use to whiten your teeth.

This method of tooth whitening involves the careful placement of home whitening solution in the trays. The trays are then worn in the mouth from 2 to 3 hours, up to the entire night.

During this time no food or drink is to be consumed by the patient. Some people experience a transient sensitivity following the whitening. The application of GC Tooth Mousse can be beneficial, along with ibuprofen.

For the Budget Conscious

We also can provide a set of 10 stock whitening trays. This can be arranged at your check up and cleaning appointment.
