Teeth discolouration is a natural process that occurs as we age, despite maintaining excellent oral health.
Our habits, such as smoking, excessive tea/coffee consumption, chewing tobacco, etc., can sometimes quicken the discolouration.
Teeth whitening at our practice in Coulsdon is the most sought-after cosmetic dental treatment.
Many of our patients combine teeth straightening, composite bonding and whitening to get their desired smile.

We use the leading teeth-whitening technology, Boutique, so you can finish the treatment from the comfort of your own home.
We provide you with made-to-measure gum shields, bleaching gel, and full instructions on how to use the system. You then wear the gel-filled trays at home.
You can even choose when to wear the trays, overnight or during the day, whatever fits in with your lifestyle.
This system requires three short appointments:
This premium whitening system guarantees a whitening effect and has a 98% success rate.
Custom-made trays are made at a specialised laboratory and worn in bed for two weeks.
Then, you need to see your dentist for a review appointment.
A very small number of patients may also need an additional in-surgery power whitening if desired results are not achieved in 2 weeks; however, there is no additional cost should you require this.
The price also includes a tube of tooth serum toothpaste, which you should use prior to whitening while you wait for your trays.
This prolongs the results and also helps with sensitivity.
Delivered in an hour, we whiten your teeth during the surgery using Phillips Zoom laser teeth whitening.
We use specialised apparatus and UV light.
Once the hydrogen peroxide gel is applied, the UV light activates it, and you can walk away with a brighter smile during your lunch hour!
Many of our patients barely manage to watch two back-to-back episodes of Friends before the treatment is over.
An excellent choice for a quick whitening top-up for a last-minute social event.
Teeth whitening has been under a lot of scrutiny lately. It is one of the safest, least-damaging cosmetic treatments. Research has suggested that if carried out by a trained professional, there is no damage to the tooth surface. This treatment can only be carried out by GDC registered professionals so you should check the qualifications and training of the person before committing to this treatment.

Enlighten This is a premium brand and you are guaranteed to be 2 shades lighter. This product offers a 98% success rate. Custom trays are made at a special laboratory and you wear these for 2 weeks at bed time
Laser teeth whitening can deliver results in 90 minutes. It takes another couple of days, with regular use of whitening gel to see the final results, whereas the home whitening kit when used on its own takes up to 10 days and full results become noticeable after 2 weeks.
No, the procedure does not hurt as it does not involve drilling. You may experience some sensitivity after treatment which wanes around 24 hours later.
As long as you have healthy teeth, gums and a good layer of enamel on your teeth surface, it should work for you.
We do not recommend this treatment for pregnant women and lactating mothers.
By and large yes, however, some people may not get the desired results as the teeth may be naturally less white. Genetics, dietary habits and smoking tend to be the factors that influence this treatment.
Zoom delivers remarkable results instantly after the treatment. some of our patients like to combine Zoom with a home whitening kit.
Teeth whitening does not last forever.
Depending on the system chosen, it can last for 2-3 years.
If your diet consists of food or drinks that stain your teeth (excessive tea/coffee, red wine, smoking or chewing tobacco), you can expect it to last for 6-12 months.
Whiter teeth does not necessarily mean healthy teeth. Maintaining a good oral health routine, visiting the hygienist and cutting out the acid from diet means your teeth will naturally stay whiter. Please make sure that you only approach a qualified, GDC registered, and fully-trained professional for this treatment. If in doubt, don’t be shy to ask if they are GDC registered as anybody delivering teeth whitening treatment without a General Dental Council registration is breaking the law.
Direct access hygiene allows patients to receive dental hygiene services without a prescription.
At the time of the appointment, the patient signs a waiver acknowledging that direct access hygiene does not involve diagnosing treatment needs and is intended solely for soft tissue health and plaque control.
If the hygienist identifies any concerns, they will recommend that the patient schedule an appointment with a dentist.
Under this model, non-registered patients can visit a practice and receive hygiene services—often at a higher fee than registered private patients.
