Teeth Whitening

Book Appointment

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment designed to improve the brightness of your smile by reducing stains and discolouration. At Dental Atelier, we provide professional whitening options tailored to your individual needs.

For patients considering teeth whitening in Wapping, treatment is planned carefully to ensure it is suitable for your oral health and provides a natural-looking result. Teeth can become discoloured over time due to factors such as diet, lifestyle habits, and ageing.

Professional teeth whitening

Professional whitening is carried out using clinically approved materials that are designed to lighten the shade of your teeth in a controlled and safe way.

At Dental Atelier, we assess your teeth before treatment to ensure whitening is appropriate. Compared to over-the-counter products, professional whitening is tailored to you and monitored by a dental professional.

What to expect from treatment

Every teeth whitening treatment is planned individually to ensure the result looks natural and suits your overall appearance. Not all types of staining respond in the same way, and we will advise you accordingly during your consultation.

With appropriate care, results can be maintained over time. Regular dental visits and good oral hygiene play an important role in preserving your smile.

Procedure

Step 1

Examination

Your treatment begins with a detailed consultation. The dentist will assess your oral health, identify the cause of discolouration, and determine whether teeth whitening is suitable for you. The expected results and appropriate method will also be discussed.

Step 2

Preparation

Before whitening, your teeth may be professionally cleaned to remove surface plaque and stains. This helps ensure more even and effective results. Shade recordings may also be taken to track your progress.

Step 3

Whitening Application

For in-clinic treatment, a protective barrier is applied to the gums before a whitening gel is carefully placed on the teeth. A specialised light may be used to enhance the process.
For home whitening, custom-made trays are provided along with professional whitening gel, with clear instructions on safe usage.

Step 4

Monitoring and Completion

In-clinic whitening is usually completed within a single visit, while home whitening takes place over one to two weeks. Progress is monitored to achieve the desired shade safely.

Step 5

Aftercare

After treatment, guidance is provided on maintaining your results. This may include avoiding strongly coloured foods and drinks for a short period, maintaining good oral hygiene, and considering occasional top-up treatments if required.

Everyone at Dental Atelier London was friendly and helpful and I was happy with my treatments. I was quite anxious about my treatments (implant and veneer) but the dentists made me feel at ease. They made sure I understood everything and made sure I was happy with everything. The receptionist was also really friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend

I came at Dental Atelier London for just one implant after checking 3 different clinics.. I had an absolutely great experience. I have chosen Dental Atelier London because the specialist goes straight to the point, no one in the clinic is wasting their time about trying to sell you treatment you didn't come for. Even when I had an emergency 2 days before Christmas the specialist did everything to see me at the clinic despite he was on holidays. I live now on the other side of the city but I will keep them for my regular hygiene check. Thank you so much for everything, I can finally now eat normally !
