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 Cynheidre patients, with whitening moving them several grades lighter.
Response depends on the cause of the staining — surface and yellow discolouration whiten well, developmental and grey staining resist it, and any crowns or composite won't shift, so mismatches are worth discussing first.

Ways to Whiten Your Teeth in Cynheidre
In-chair (laser/light-activated) whitening is done at the practice in one 60–90 minute appointment. A high-concentration gel is applied and activated with a light or laser, giving immediate results — typically a 4–8 shade lift, depending on your starting point.
Take-home tray whitening involves bespoke trays and dentist-supplied gel worn over roughly a fortnight — excellent, controllable results at your own pace.
Combined whitening (an in-chair session followed by take-home top-ups) is often recommended in Cynheidre because it maximises the initial jump and lets you maintain the shade over time.
Over-the-counter kits are the weakest option by a wide margin — useful only for very minor upkeep, never for a real shade improvement.
