The safe way to a brighter, whiter smile

We all want a brighter, whiter smile. However, there has long been concerns about 'rogue traders' and recently the European Union became involved in regulating the tooth whitening industry to drive up standards of patient safety.

The EU has set standards in place that all clinicians should abide by to ensure great results and patient safety is paramount. Professional teeth whitening can give long-lasting, predictable results with minimal sensitivity with proper adherence to these new guidelines.

We have welcomed these guidelines and patients can trust in our high-quality, advanced dentistry.

We currently offer two options for people looking for a whiter smile. At home whitening involves molds being taken of a patients' teeth for a custom-fit mouth tray which can be filled with the whitening gel prescribed. Each application penetrates into the enamel to break up stains deep inside the tooth, and the teeth will gradually whiten over the treatment period until they have reached the desired degree of whitening.



The other option available to patients is in-house whitening. As you sit back and relax, a special whitening gel is applied to your teeth and then the Philips Zoom™ lamp acts as a catalyst to give teeth a lighter boost within one hour. This is then followed up by home whitening trays that patients usually use in the evening at home to get the extra desired whitening they wish. This lightening can be ‘topped up’ on an annual basis under the guidance of a patients' dentist.

At The Exeter Dental Centre we are currently running a special offer on our 'at home' and 'in surgery' teeth whitening packages, with prices from £199. Our whitening products are completely customisable, as the formula concentration and wear times are adapted to suit your teeth sensitivity and lifestyle.
