Tooth whitening

Tooth Whitening is a safe and effective way to whiten your teeth.

Dr Chimes’ Practice offers Zoom Whitening which is an "in-office treatment"

In a single appointment lasting about an hour, using Zoom Whitening’s advanced technology your smile can become up to 8 shades lighter through the application of a formulated whitening gel activated by a specially developed light.

Prior to the commencement of any treatment, we will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and gums to ensure they are healthy and eligible to undergo the procedure. If any problems are diagnosed such as gum disease or tooth decay, they will need to be treated before your teeth are whitened as the solution can penetrate decay and reach the inner area of the tooth; this can contribute to tooth sensitivity.

As many people are seeking instant results due to a pressing engagement such as a wedding or other up-coming event, our one visit in-surgery whitening is a popular choice. Your in-chair whitening will involve the application of the whitening gel to your teeth, which is then exposed to a blue light for approximately 15 minutes, after which time the gel is reapplied. Depending on the colour of your teeth and the shade you wish to achieve, the whitening gel may be applied up to three times.

Home whitening options are also available.

Our custom-made trays, similar in design to a sports mouthguards, are shaped to fit snugly over your teeth allowing for maximum contact with your tooth’s enamel while still protecting your gums. You will be given instructions on the correct use of your trays and gel so you can achieve maximum results. Your desired shade may take between 18-21 days to achieve.

Tooth whitening treatments have undergone extensive testing to ensure they are completely safe to use. Some patients may experience sensitivity to hot and cold, however this will often subside several hours after completing your treatment. If you experience sensitivity while using your at home treatment you should cease application for a few days. If symptoms continue, please do not hesitate to contact Stephen Chimes Dentistry in Rose Bay for advice.

The longevity of your treatment will depend on your lifestyle and food choices. Smoking and strongly dyed foods discolour your teeth much quicker. In order to maintain the desired result an ongoing home maintenance program is required and instructions are issued on this.
