An introduction to teeth whitening from our team
As many as 3 in 5 dental patients have one thing in common; they aren’t happy with the colour of their teeth!
And there is an array of different options out there that can proclaim to help whiten your teeth, with mixed efficacy and results. So if you want to brighten your smile, where should you start? With a visit to our team!
At The Dental Retreat, we have helped thousands of people to whiten their smiles using our in-practice teeth whitening Macleod. Our dentist will work with you to find a shade that suits your dental aesthetics without looking too flashy and will also be able to offer comfortable whitening options.
Here, our team will look at the most widely available types of dental whitening that exist in society today and give them a mark out of 10; which is the best option for teeth whitening Macleod? Read on to find out!
In-practice teeth whitening
This method is performed in our clinic and usually takes about an hour to complete. Our dentist will apply a high-concentration peroxide gel to the teeth, which will then be activated using a special light. This process can lighten the teeth several shades in just one appointment. In-practice whitening is a great option for those who want fast results, as it is the most efficient and quickest way to whiten teeth. As the gels used have anti-sensitivity agents built in, you can rest assured that this type of teeth whitening Macleod will be comfortable.

Take-home whitening kits
Take-home whitening kits are custom-made trays that are filled with a lower-concentration of peroxide gel. The patient wears the trays for a specified amount of time each day, usually 30 minutes to an hour, for several days. The results of take-home whitening kits are slower than in-office whitening, but they are still good and can lighten teeth by several shades.
Our mark-7/10.
Over-the-counter whitening products
There are many over-the-counter whitening products available, such as whitening toothpaste, strips, and gels. These products contain lower concentrations of peroxide and may take longer to show results, but they are still a good option for those who want to maintain their white teeth after a professional whitening treatment.
However, the majority of people will be unlikely to see the results they want.

Laser teeth whitening
Laser teeth whitening uses a combination of peroxide gel and specialised laser light to whiten teeth. The laser light helps to activate the gel, making it more productive. This method is less common than in-practice and take-home whitening and is typically more expensive. However, it can be a great option for those who want fast results.
Our mark-9/10.
It is important to note that different whitening treatments may not work for everyone, and the results may vary depending on the individual’s teeth and the level of staining. Those with severe discolouration or tooth decay may not see the desired results and may need other treatments, such as veneers or crowns, which our team is also happy to offer. So, call us today!
