Whitening supplied by a registered dental professional uses far stronger gel than anything sold over the counter. In Ganton it is a common request, and results go well beyond what a supermarket kit can manage. The timescale ranges from a single 90-minute visit to a fortnight of overnight tray wear.
Professional Whitening Choices in Ganton
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 blends both approaches: immediate lift in the chair, then home trays to fine-tune and sustain the colour.
Over-the-counter kits sold in shops are limited by law to weak gel concentrations, so they're fine for touch-ups but no substitute for dentist-led whitening.
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 Ganton 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.
