Understanding Tooth Shade — The VITA Scale
Dental professionals in Invergarry 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.
Yellow-toned staining lifts most readily; grey and intrinsic staining (antibiotics, fluorosis) far less so. Existing restorations stay the same shade, so front-tooth crowns or fillings may need separate planning.
Professional Whitening Choices in Invergarry
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 blends both approaches: immediate lift in the chair, then home trays to fine-tune and sustain the colour.
Over-the-counter kits are the weakest option by a wide margin — useful only for very minor upkeep, never for a real shade improvement.
