For a brighter smile, professional whitening is a well-evidenced, non-invasive first step. Patients across Brentingby choose it because the shade lift is calibrated to their teeth and sensitivity. The timescale ranges from a single 90-minute visit to a fortnight of overnight tray wear.
Professional Whitening Choices in Brentingby
In-chair (laser/light-activated) whitening delivers the fastest visible result — one supervised session with professional-strength gel, most patients leaving 4–8 VITA shades lighter that day.
Take-home tray whitening gives you custom-fitted trays to wear at home for a couple of weeks; the slower build tends to be gentler on sensitivity while reaching the same end shade.
Combined whitening (an in-chair session followed by take-home top-ups) is often recommended in Brentingby because it maximises the initial jump and lets you maintain the shade over time.
Over-the-counter kits are legally capped at very low peroxide levels and can't match professional results. They suit minor maintenance at best, not a genuine shade change.

The VITA Shade Guide Explained
Colour is tracked on the VITA scale — A1 at the light end through to C4 at the dark. Untreated teeth usually fall around A2–B3 in Brentingby patients, with whitening moving them several grades lighter.
Not all teeth respond equally. Intrinsic staining from tetracycline or fluorosis whitens poorly, yellow tones respond best, and grey tones least. Crowns, veneers and fillings don't change colour at all, which can create mismatches to plan around.
