For a brighter smile, professional whitening is a well-evidenced, non-invasive first step. Practices in Felton tailor the concentration to your natural shade rather than a one-size-fits-all gel. Depending on the method, you'll see change immediately or across a short take-home course.
Sensitivity, Aftercare and Keeping Results
Sensitivity is the most common side effect — usually a sharp, transient twinge with air or cold that settles within 24–48 hours. A sensitivity toothpaste used for two weeks beforehand noticeably reduces it.
A brief 'white diet' — skipping strongly coloured food and drink for two days — protects the fresh result. Long-term, good hygiene and an occasional top-up every 12–18 months keep teeth bright.

Ways to Whiten Your Teeth in Felton
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 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 Felton 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.
