Your smile is the part of your face that people are likely to notice first. An attractive, stunning white smile will boost your appearance, creating a lasting impression. This is one of the reasons why teeth whitening is one of the most used cosmetic dental procedures.
Teeth Whitening offers a quick, non-invasive, and affordable way to enhance a smile by brightening stained or discoloured teeth. Over time teeth can become stained from food, drinks, smoking or some medications.

Teeth whitening is regulated as a cosmetic product in the UK and Europe and must adhere to the UK and EU Cosmetic Regulations. This dictates that the strength of hydrogen peroxide cannot exceed 6% by weight in professional teeth whitening solutions. At 6% strength, professional tooth whitening is very safe when used under the supervision of a dentist. Boutique Whitening is registered with the UK and EU Cosmetics Portal and has been passed by an EU assessor as safe to use.
If you use Boutique Whitening as directed, provided you have no allergies to the ingredients, you should have a safe and comfortable experience with Boutique Whitening.
Whitening does not work on teeth which have fillings, or on crowns and bridges. It is usually possible to remove stains from most real teeth, even those with root damage. Teeth with very bad staining (due to tetracycline or fluorosis) may not respond to treatment or may require several treatments.
Each syringe of Boutique Whitening should last around 5 days when whitening the upper and lower teeth. If you use too much gel, it may leak, causing sensitivity owing to irritation of the gums. If you use too little, the teeth may not whiten very well.
There is no need to change your diet during your whitening treatment. The only change we would suggest is that you do not eat heavily coloured foods for 24-48 hours after whitening your teeth each day. Apart from this you can eat and drink as normal.
Teeth whitening will improve the colour of your teeth, but they will eventually begin to fade back towards a darker shade. It is not enough to get your teeth whitened once – you must commit to a programme of top-up whitening to keep them that way. Your dentist will be able to advise you on the best maintenance programme for your smile. Typically, 3 to 5 days of top-up whitening every 3 months will be enough to keep your teeth looking beautifully white.
Lifestyle factors, such as smoking and dietary choices, will affect how often you require top-up teeth whitening treatments.
Teeth whitening will only work to whiten the natural teeth. It will not lighten existing dental work at all. Be aware that you may need to change any crowns, veneers, or fillings after you have had teeth whitening. You will need to discuss this with your dentist prior to having the treatment, to ensure you are aware of the costs and appointments involved if this is required.
Teeth whitening is not permanent. With no intervention, the colour of your newly whitened teeth will begin to slowly fade back to your previous colour. The duration between topping up your teeth whitening depends mainly on lifestyle choices. People who smoke or consume food and beverages that stain teeth, such as red wine, coffee, and curries, will find that they need teeth whitening at more regular intervals after their initial whitening treatment. If your lifestyle involves one or more of these factors, then you may require top-ups every 3 to 4 months. In the absence of these habits, most people will require additional whitening at 6 monthly or yearly intervals. Age and habitual factors also play a role in how long your whitening treatment will last.
If you grind your teeth, the enamel can develop micro cracks. These will accumulate stains much more readily and mean you need whitening treatments more regularly. Your dentist will be able to help you determine how often you should top up your whitening.
Our patients have found more confidence and cannot stop smiling once we have whitened their teeth.
Please note you will need to have a consultation to check you are suitable for whitening treatment. If you’re eligible, your dentist will discuss which whitening option will suit you best, and the costs associated with the treatment.
