Your gums and lips are protected with barrier materials and a “before” picture is taken. The whitening gel is applied to your teeth, and the blue light activates it. You relax. After three cycles of 8 to 20 minutes (just over an hour), the procedure is completed, and an “after” picture is taken. You rinse. You smile. Wow!
Clinical studies show that in-surgery whitening procedures can deliver up to eight shades lighter and even more for individuals with darker teeth. Results will vary as the starting points may be different, and everyone’s teeth respond differently. During the consultation, we will go over what you can realistically expect based on your individual situation.
About 10% of our clients may experience a dull ache following the procedure. Taking an analgesic almost always resolves the discomfort. It is best to avoid hot and cold drinks for the first 24 hours. We will provide you with an information sheet on how we can help you reduce the sensitivity as much as possible.
In-surgery whitening treatment cannot change the colour of your crowns, veneers, or bonding. We will recommend the best course of action if we are whitening your teeth and are also fitting crowns, veneers or bonding.
On average, it lasts for two to three years, but the long-term results depend primarily on the individual. Certain habits, such as the use of tobacco products, drinking a lot of coffee, tea, or dark soft drinks, and infrequent visits to the dentist for regular cleanings, etc., can work against the best results.
Regular professional care can help maintain the whiteness for years. Some people may prefer to have the whitening procedure carried out every few years to maintain the whiteness, or choose to simply top up the whitening treatment with a take-home mini whitening kit.
After your teeth whitening treatment, it’s recommended by professionals to wait at least 30 minutes to an hour before eating. This allows the enamel to re-harden and minimizes any potential sensitivity. Additionally, for the first 24 to 48 hours, it’s best to avoid dark-colored foods and beverages, such as red wine, coffee, and berries. After the whitening procedure, the teeth’ enamel becomes porous, making them vulnerable to stains.
In Australia, the cost of teeth whitening can vary depending on the method you choose. In-office treatments typically range from $250 to $1,000. Take-home whitening kits from your dentist usually cost between $100 and $400. Prices can differ based on the location and the dental practice, so it’s best to consult your dentist for a specific quote tailored to your needs.
Teeth Whitening Treatment at Home
Home whitening using trays and bleaching gels offers an effective and affordable way to achieve teeth whitening at home. Most teeth whitening gels available are similar in formulation, differing mainly in concentration; higher concentrations whiten faster but can increase tooth sensitivity, which is usually temporary. Gels available at retail stores often have low quality and concentrations due to prolonged storage and cost-cutting.
- Before starting the process, ensure your teeth have been professionally cleaned within the last six months; if not, schedule a teeth cleaning to avoid whitening tartar or calculus. This step is crucial for achieving the best teeth whitening results.
- Take impressions/molds of your teeth to make special trays that fit your mouth.
- Place the bleaching gel in the trays and insert them into your mouth for the recommended duration. Higher gel concentrations require shorter application times.
- As the gel works, carbamide peroxide breaks down, allowing oxygen to penetrate the enamel and dentine, bleaching discolored areas.
- The tooth’s structure remains unchanged; only the shade is lightened.

Potential Problems with Tooth Whitening Treatment
Tooth sensitivity: During the first 24 hours following whitening, many patients experience sensitivity. This sensitivity is usually mild unless your teeth are abnormally sensitive. With in-office whitening, this sensitivity will usually subside within one or two days. With take-home whitening, it may be necessary to reduce the number of hours you wear the tray, or stop using it for a short time, to resolve the sensitivity.
However, if your teeth are abnormally sensitive, whitening may make your teeth much more sensitive for an extended period. Under these circumstances, you may choose to delay whitening until we are able to complete desensitisation procedures.
Gum Irritation: Whitening may cause temporary inflammation of your gums. With in-office whitening, this can be the result of a very small amount of gel leaking under the gum protection. A burning sensation in your gums may also occur. This is a minor problem and will subside within a few days.
With take-home whitening, irritation can result from using the whitening tray for too many hours when you first start whitening, or from using the tray for too many hours in a row without a break. It may be necessary for you to reduce the number of hours you are wearing the tray, or stop using it for a short time to resolve these gum problems. The tray may also overlap your gums, allowing the gel to contact your gums for an extended period. This problem can be resolved by returning to our office so that we can trim the tray to a new position slightly short of your gums.
Sore Throat: Most take-home whitening gel is very thick and will not run down your throat if you overload the tray with gel. However, if your gel is lower in viscosity, the excess may go down your throat and cause soreness. This soreness will subside in a few days. In the event that you feel gel in your mouth or throat, spit out the excess gel instead of swallowing it.
Leaking Fillings or Cavities: Most whitening is indicated for the outside of the teeth (unless you have already had a root canal treatment). However, if you have any fillings that are leaking and the gel gets into the inside of the teeth, damage to the nerves of the tooth could result. In this case, the fillings need to be redone prior to the whitening. In addition, open cavities can also allow gel to reach the nerves of the teeth. For this reason, all cavities should also be filled before whitening.
