Teeth Whitening in Cardiff

Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dentistry procedure which lightens the colour of teeth, removing stains and discolouration.

As we age, our teeth can lose their sparkle and become stained from the foods and drinks we enjoy. Smoking is another contributor to discoloration, as well as poor overall oral hygiene.

Teeth whitening can help reverse some of these discolorations, leading to whiter teeth and a more aesthetically pleasing smile.

What to expect when getting your Teeth Whitened in Cardiff

The process of getting your teeth whitened can be relatively quick depending on the type of treatment you choose.

All of our teeth whitening procedures are tailored to your specific needs. Typically, the process will be as follows:

Initial consultation
We’ll speak to you about your needs and expectations, as well as assess your current oral health, and determine your suitability for whitening. We may well take photos of your teeth before performing a 3D scan of your teeth and gums.

Cleaning
Any plaque or tartar can affect the efficacy of your whitening, so we advise having your teeth professionally cleaned for the best teeth whitening results. We can arrange this.

Starting the whitening treatment
Depending on which of our three whitening treatments you go for, you will be given a whitening fit appointment which may be as straight forward as checking the whitening trays fit, and demonstrating how to use the whitening gel before allowing you home to perform this at your own leisure, or if you have chosen the Phillips Zoom system the whitening fit appointment will consist of us applying the gel to the teeth before then you complete the treatment at home at your own pace.

Waiting and evaluation
If you are undergoing the Phillips Zoom whitening treatment, there will be a waiting period for the ‘in chair’ whitening to take effect. This can take up to an hour.
After any whitening work your teeth and gums may be sensitive, so we’ll give you instructions on dealing with this and aftercare advice to maintain your pearly whites, before you finish the procedure off yourself at home in approximately 3-5 days.

At-home maintenance
For those undergoing at-home treatment, we’ll provide you with custom-fitted trays and whitening gel for even whiter whites, or at-home touch-ups. This is true for our Professional take home whitening and our Enlighten Evo4 whitening.

Is Teeth Whitening a safe procedure?

When performed by trained dental professionals (look for dentists registered with the General Dental Council, like Bamboo), cosmetic teeth whitening is generally a safe procedure. As part of our consultation process we assess suitability and determine the best treatment for your and your individual needs. The technologies we use are tried and tested, and among the world’s leading services for teeth whitening.

Though the whitening procedure itself is not generally painful, and the risk of serious complications is low, some mild sensitivity may occur. This often disappears after a couple of days, and using sensitive toothpaste can help with this.

The safest way to get your teeth whitened is to use a trusted cosmetic dentist like Bamboo. Our 1000+ TrustPilot reviews are from just some of our smiling customers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We've answered the most common ones about teeth straightening, from treatment times to comfort and results.

Once you have seen us, and we have determined that you are dentally fit to have teeth whitening then it is a treatment that is suitable for most people.

It varies. There are a number of factors at play, for instance the ability of a person’s tooth to maintain whiteness, and the type of foods/drinks an individual consumes.

Generally though, the new tooth shade is stable for around a 12 month.

We recommend purchasing a syringe or two of whitening gel to help you top up the shade by whitening two to three nights every three months. If you do this then the whiteness will last and last.

Professional teeth whitening IS safe for your teeth.

We will check it’s suitability for you first and talk you through how to use the gels safely.

It’s a prescription only treatment by law because there are some internet available options which are really dangerous to your tooth tissue if used incorrectly.

Sensitivity is a common downside to teeth whitening. The degree of sensitivity varies so much from person to person, and typically only lasts for a couple of days.

However and on rare occasions a patient will have to stop the process of whitening until their teeth have settled down a little.

The Enlighten Evo4 whitening system is best for minimising sensitivity.

Teeth whitening can cost from as little as £295 for the Take Away Professional Whitening System. For other services including ‘in-chair’ whitening, view our pricing page.

Teeth whitening is a relatively straightforward procedure that can have immediate and long-lasting impact. Benefits include improved self-confidence, better oral hygiene, and whitening, and compared to some other procedures, whitening is a relatively affordable, non-invasive procedure.
