Managing Sensitivity After Whitening
Transient sensitivity is normal and short-lived. Pre-treating with a sensitivity toothpaste, and avoiding very hot or cold drinks for a day or two afterwards, keeps it manageable for most people.
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 Speeton
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 Speeton 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.
