Whether you’re preparing for a special event or simply want to refresh your appearance, our in-chair whitening solution provides fast, reliable results under the care of experienced dental professionals.

Why Do Teeth Become Discoloured?

It’s common for teeth to dull or discolour over time due to a variety of factors, including:

  • Consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, or dark-coloured foods
  • Smoking or tobacco use
  • Natural ageing and enamel wear
  • Certain medications or medical conditions
  • Inconsistent brushing or oral hygiene practices

While brushing and cleaning help maintain your teeth, they can’t always remove deeper stains. That’s where professional whitening treatments can make a visible difference.

In-Chair Teeth Whitening at Terrigal Beach Dental + Implant Centre

Our in-chair whitening procedure is carried out in the dental chair using a high-quality, professionally applied whitening gel. The treatment is carefully monitored to ensure safety, comfort, and even results.

Most patients notice a significant improvement in the brightness of their teeth after just one session. This method is ideal for those seeking immediate results, particularly ahead of important occasions like weddings, interviews, or special events.

What to Expect During Your Treatment

  1. Initial Consultation
    We begin by assessing your oral health to ensure your teeth and gums are in good condition and that whitening is appropriate for you.
  2. Preparation
    Your gums and soft tissues are carefully protected, and the whitening gel is applied to your teeth by one of our trained dental professionals.
  3. Whitening Session
    The gel is left on your teeth for a specific amount of time, often in multiple short intervals, and may be activated using a specialised dental light depending on the system used.
  4. Post-Treatment Care
    After the session, we’ll discuss aftercare tips to help you maintain your results and reduce potential sensitivity.

Is Professional Whitening Safe?

Yes. When performed under the supervision of a dental professional, in-chair whitening is a safe and effective way to enhance your smile. We tailor the procedure to your individual needs and ensure your comfort throughout the process.

Please note that whitening is only suitable for natural tooth enamel. Crowns, veneers, and fillings will not respond to whitening agents.
