What Causes Tooth Discolouration?
Understanding the source of stains can help you prevent them in the future:
☕ Food & Drinks: Coffee, tea, red wine, and berries can stain enamel
🚬 Tobacco Use: Smoking or chewing tobacco darkens and yellows teeth
🕒 Ageing: Enamel thins with age, revealing the yellowish dentin underneath
🤕 Trauma: Tooth injuries can darken internal structures
💊 Medication: Some antibiotics and medical treatments affect tooth colour
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
Our Whitening Treatment uses a professional-grade bleaching agent that penetrates the enamel and breaks down stain molecules, revealing a whiter, brighter appearance.
You can choose between:
In-Practice Whitening – Quick, safe, and powerful. Often completed in just one session.
At-Home Whitening – A dentist-prescribed kit tailored to you, with professional guidance for use at home.
What to Expect During Your Whitening Session

Step 2: Preparation
Your teeth are cleaned, and your lips and gums are protected to ensure a safe, comfortable experience.
Step 3: Whitening Application
The whitening gel is applied to your teeth, and in some cases, activated with a special light for enhanced results.
