For a brighter smile, professional whitening is a well-evidenced, non-invasive first step. In Hanover Square it is a common request, and results go well beyond what a supermarket kit can manage. Some patients whiten in one appointment; others prefer the slower, gentler take-home route.
Understanding Tooth Shade — The VITA Scale
The VITA guide gives whitening an objective before-and-after in Hanover Square: most teeth start near A2–B3, and a course commonly achieves a 4–8 shade improvement.
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.
Whitening Options Available in Hanover Square
In-chair (laser/light-activated) whitening happens in a single visit: a strong hydrogen-peroxide gel is light-activated for immediate change, usually lifting the shade several grades in one sitting.
Take-home tray whitening uses custom trays and professional-strength gel worn daily (30 minutes to overnight) over 2–4 weeks. It builds a gradual result with less sensitivity than in-chair treatment.
Combined whitening pairs a fast in-chair kick-start with trays for maintenance — a popular route in Hanover Square for people who want quick results that last.
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.
