In-Clinic Laser Teeth Whitening In London

Will I really have whiter teeth in an hour with in-clinic laser teeth whitening?

In-clinic instant laser light teeth whitening is available to patients who would much rather have their teeth whitened at the clinic and achieve results instantly. The procedure is carried under an LED light (not a laser light); the LED light activates whitening compounds in the whitening gel that is applied to the teeth, accelerating the laser light teeth whitening process to a little over an hour.

How Does In-Clinic Laser Light Teeth Whitening Work ?

In-clinic teeth whitening in London

In-clinic laser teeth whitening is conducted in clinic by the dentist and is an instant whitening treatment. The treatment involves the application of a whitening gel to the teeth, followed by a white LED light (it’s not actually a laser light) directed at the patient’s teeth. The LED light acts as a catalyst to initiate whitening radicals in the gel, accelerating the whitening process and producing whiter teeth. It can achieve whitening results up-to 6 shades whiter in a little over an hour – almost instantly.

Patients with teeth shade A2 or less (i.e. stained teeth) show the most improvement with the in-clinic instant laser teeth whitening system, with results easily viewable. Patients with starting teeth shades higher than A1 (i.e. whiter teeth) will show improvement as well, however, the results are not as dramatic as their teeth shade was closer to white to start with.

Is Laser Teeth Whitening Safe To Use ?

Yes, its instant laser teeth whitening is very safe is the short answer.

Laser light teeth whitening, when carried out by a dentist, is completely safe. The LED light (the light used is LED light, not a laser light) does not damage teeth in any way. The light simply acts as a catalyst, activating whitening agents in the whitening gel to accelerate the laser teeth whitening process.

The dentist will also always check your oral health to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy and safe for laser light teeth whitening prior to starting any treatment.

Instant laser teeth whitening is carried out by the dentist in the clinic. It provides an instantly brighter smile in a little over an hour. It typically costs  £450. Please contact or email us  for more information on cost of whitening in London .

How much brighter will my teeth look after in-clinic laser whitening?

Teeth whitening London results can often dependent on the nature of staining on your teeth, your individual teeth type & the type of whitening kit you use. In-clinic teeth whitening or instant teeth whitening can whiten teeth up to 6 shades brighter.

How long do the results last?

In-clinic whitening, when performed in-clinic should produce permanent whitening results. Top-ups should only be needed usually every 6-9 months. Lifestyle choices like wine/coffee drinking, smoking etc. can also have an impact on how long the results last.

What is the process for laser teeth whitening?

The treatment starts with the dentist conducting a full checkup of your teeth and gums to identify and treat any issues that could impact the whitening process (e.g. tooth decay and gum disease) prior to starting teeth whitening. The teeth whitening treatment is most effective when teeth are receptive to whitening – a dental hygienist clean helps prepare the teeth for the whitening process. We often recommend a hygiene clean in London prior to starting laser light teeth whitening.

At the start of the whitening procedure, the dentist will note the patients starting teeth shade to help see the difference once the treatment is completed. The dentist will then do the following –

1.The dentist will prepare your teeth and gums and then apply a layer of teeth whitening gel to the teeth.

2.To speed up the whitening process, the dentist will use the Philips Zoom LED whitening lamp to apply a laser light (LED) to the teeth. The laser light acts as a catalyst for initiating whitening agents in the gel, accelerates the teeth whitening process significantly.

3.This is then repeated four times.

4.Once the desired teeth shade is achieved, the dentist will apply a post-treatment protective gel to the enamel; the gel helps reduce sensitivity to the teeth.
