Whitening supplied by a registered dental professional uses far stronger gel than anything sold over the counter. Practices in Hollingsworth tailor the concentration to your natural shade rather than a one-size-fits-all gel. Some patients whiten in one appointment; others prefer the slower, gentler take-home route.
Whitening Options Available in Hollingsworth
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 Hollingsworth 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.

Understanding Tooth Shade — The VITA Scale
Dental professionals in Hollingsworth use the VITA classical shade guide to record tooth colour, running from A1 (lightest) to C4 (darkest). Most natural teeth sit between A2 and B3, and professional whitening typically lifts 4–8 grades.
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.
