How Much Does Teeth Whitening Cost?
The cost of achieving a brighter smile through teeth whitening is subject to several influential factors, but especially the type of procedure you use.
- In-chair whitening: This professional service is performed in the dental clinic and tends to be on the higher end of the cost spectrum due to the use of advanced technology, immediate results, and the expertise required for the procedure.
- At-home whitening kits: These kits, provided by dental clinics for use at home, are typically less expensive than in-chair procedures. They include custom-fitted trays and a bleaching agent for gradual application, offering a more budget-friendly option with results over time.
How Long Does Teeth Whitening Last?
The duration of your teeth whitening results can significantly vary, often lasting anywhere from four weeks to two years. This is influenced by several factors, including:
Factors Affecting Longevity
- Dietary choices
- Oral hygiene
- Tobacco use
- Frequency of follow-ups
Types of Teeth Whitening
There are various types of teeth whitening, including:
- Whitening toothpaste:
This option is convenient and the most accessible form of tooth whitening, but also provides the least noticeable results and can abrade your enamel. Whitening toothpaste works by removing surface stains using coarse abrasives. Prolonged use of whitening toothpaste can strip and weaken your enamel. - Over-the-counter bleaching products:
A variety of over-the-counter teeth whitening options exist. These products feature a lower concentration of active whitening agents compared to what a dentist uses. If you are considering the use of an over-the-counter whitening kit, consider discussing the options with your dentist. - In-chair whitening:
Professional teeth whitening, or chair-side bleaching, can dramatically whiten teeth in just one visit. - At-home bleaching from your dentist:
Your dentist can also provide you with an at-home teeth whitening kit containing a custom-made tray and bleaching solution. The custom made tray ensures that minimal bleaching product is required to achieve the desired result and that your gums are as protected as they can be. This option takes longer to see results than in-office whitening, typically two weeks.
How to Make Your Teeth Whitening Last Longer
To ensure your teeth remain bright and white for as long as possible, consider adding the following into your routine:
Regular Dental Visits
Routine dental check-ups and cleanings not only help maintain overall oral health but also assist in keeping your teeth stain-free.
Professional cleanings can remove plaque and surface stains that daily brushing might miss.
Use of Straws
When consuming beverages known to cause staining, using a straw can help by minimising the liquid’s contact with your front teeth, thereby reducing the risk of stains.
Immediate Rinsing
After consuming foods or drinks that could stain your teeth, rinsing your mouth with water can help wash away potential staining agents.
This is particularly useful when you’re unable to brush your teeth immediately after eating or drinking.
Benefits of Professional Teeth Whitening
Whether you have severe discolouration, staining from certain foods or medications, or simply want to whiten your teeth a few shades, we can determine a customised whitening plan to help you achieve your goals.
Benefits of professional teeth whitening include:
- Safe and effective Increased confidence and happier smile

Teeth Whitening FAQs
What is teeth whitening?
If you feel your smile is lacking the brightness it used to have, professional teeth whitening can be an effective, easy way to whiten teeth.
The procedure involves the use of a special dental bleach that can produce dramatic results in just a single office visit.
Are there any stains professional teeth whitening can’t remove?
Although professional teeth whitening can produce impressive results in most cases, some discolourations or stains are resistant to even the strongest bleaching gels and products.
Inorganic stains do not respond well to traditional whitening. Teeth that have been darkened due to trauma or discoloured due to fluorosis also do not respond well to whitening.
Are there any side effects of teeth whitening?
Some individuals experience increased tooth sensitivity following teeth whitening. In most cases, this is temporary. Overuse of whitening products can damage the gums and tooth enamel, making it important to follow your dentist’s instructions on how frequently to whiten your teeth.
What can I eat after teeth whitening?
