Benefits of Teeth Whitening
Convenience
White Dental Beauty provides professional-grade results in the comfort your own home. You only need to book a single appointment with us to check the condition of your teeth and gums. If all is well with your dental health, we then take digital scans of your teeth and send them off to get your bespoke teeth whitening trays made.
Quick results
With custom-fitted trays and highly concentrated whitening gel, you will achieve noticeably whiter teeth with minimal sensitivity in just 1-3 weeks.
Flexibility
Your dentist will tailor the treatment plan to suit your individual need. Additionally, the system offers a range of whitening strengths, allowing for customisation based on the severity of staining and sensitivity levels.
Long lasting
White Dental Beauty is known for its long-lasting results. We chose the system because we know it works by using advanced whitening technology and high-quality materials.
White Dental Beauty System
- White Dental Beauty is a take-home treatment. First, digital scans are taken of your teeth and sent to the laboratory to create bespoke trays which are similar to mouth guards. This takes about two weeks.
- Once the whitening trays are ready you collect them from our clinic. We will explain the process to you during your visit and give you enough whitening gel to take home for your desired result.
- You will whiten your teeth at home by wearing the trays for a designated amount of time each day, having applied the whitening gel to them first. You do this for approximately one to three weeks.

TEETH WHITENING FAQS
Teeth whitening typically involves the use of bleaching agents such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. These agents break up stains and discoloration within the enamel, resulting in a brighter smile.
When done under the supervision of a dentist using professional-grade products, teeth whitening is considered safe. However, overuse of whitening agents or improper application of products purchased from the internet can lead to increased tooth sensitivity and gum irritation.
The duration of teeth whitening results varies depending on factors such as lifestyle habits and oral hygiene practices. With proper maintenance and occasional touch-ups, results can last anywhere from several months to a few years.
When performed correctly, teeth whitening should not damage enamel. However, excessive or improper use of whitening products can weaken enamel and lead to sensitivity. It’s essential to follow the dentist’s instructions carefully.
Teeth whitening is most effective on extrinsic stains caused by factors like food, drinks, and tobacco. Intrinsic stains, which originate from within the tooth, may be more challenging to remove and may require alternative treatments such as veneers or bonding.
While over-the-counter whitening products can provide some improvement, they are generally less potent and do not deliver the same level of results as professional treatments. Professional whitening options, such as those offered here at Umi Clinic, typically use higher concentrations of bleaching agents and provide custom-fitted trays for optimal effectiveness.
