Teeth Whitening
Professional Teeth Whitening in Heathmont, Melbourne
Everyone loves a happy, bright smile, especially the staff at Heathmont Dental. We love seeing our patients smile confidently, and teeth whitening is a popular way to improve the look of stained or dull-coloured teeth.
Before we brighten your teeth, we want to make sure you have a healthy smile too, and not just a bright smile. That’s why we suggest a general check-up and clean before starting a teeth whitening programme.
Teeth whitening method for take-home whitening kits
Take-home whitening kits offer convenience and are cost-effective for whitening your teeth at home.
- Firstly, we will take an impression of your teeth, which will then be used to make a customised silicone mould. The mould will exactly fit the shape of your teeth.
- The mould is part of the kit you take home. You will also be given a tube of whitening gel, which is applied to the inside of the mould before inserting the mould over your teeth.
- We will advise you on how often and how long to wear the mould at home. Generally, it is 15 minutes per whitening session.
- With the at-home teeth whitening kit, you only need to replenish the whitening gel as needed. The moulds should last you for years, giving you the freedom to whiten your teeth as needed, without a visit to your dentist.
Regular dental visits are recommended to support good overall dental health.
