Considering a brighter smile with take-home whitening kits? You're not alone. These convenient options allow you to whiten your teeth in the comfort of your home, fitting easily into your daily routine. At London Dental Specialists, we provide professional-grade take-home whitening solutions that balance effectiveness with safety. Many patients have questions about how these kits work, their safety, expected results, and how they compare to in-office treatments. Our custom-fitted trays ensure the whitening solution contacts your teeth properly while protecting your gums. While results typically appear within one to two weeks, individual experiences may vary. Below, we've answered the most common questions about our take-home whitening kits to help you make an informed decision.
Take-home teeth whitening kits from London Dental Specialists work through a simple yet effective process. First, our dental professionals create custom-fitted trays specifically for your teeth. These trays are then filled with professional-grade whitening gel containing hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. When worn as directed (typically for 1-2 hours daily or overnight depending on the formulation), the active ingredients break down stains on the tooth enamel, resulting in a brighter smile. The custom fit ensures maximum contact between the whitening agent and teeth while minimising gel exposure to sensitive gum tissues.
Most patients begin to notice visible results within 3-5 days of consistent use of our take-home whitening kits. Optimal results typically appear after 1-2 weeks of treatment as directed. The exact timeframe varies depending on the initial shade of your teeth, the type and severity of staining, and how consistently you follow the treatment protocol. For maintenance, occasional touch-up treatments can help sustain your brighter smile indefinitely.
Yes, take-home teeth whitening kits from London Dental Specialists are safe when used as directed. Our kits are prescribed by qualified dental professionals who assess your oral health before recommending treatment. The custom-fitted trays minimise gel contact with gums, reducing the risk of irritation. While some patients may experience temporary tooth sensitivity, this typically subsides shortly after completing treatment. Our dentists carefully select appropriate whitening concentrations based on your specific needs and dental history to ensure safety and comfort throughout the whitening process.
Professional take-home kits from London Dental Specialists offer several advantages over over-the-counter options:
With proper care, results from London Dental Specialists' take-home whitening kits can last 1-2 years or longer. Longevity depends largely on lifestyle factors such as consumption of staining substances (coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco), oral hygiene practices, and regular dental check-ups. Many patients maintain their results with periodic touch-up treatments, which may involve wearing the trays for just 1-2 nights every few months. Following a good oral hygiene routine and attending regular dental check-ups will help maximise the duration of your whitening results.
While many patients are suitable candidates for take-home teeth whitening, they aren't appropriate for everyone. Before prescribing a kit, London Dental Specialists conduct a thorough assessment to ensure you're a good candidate. Whitening may not be recommended for patients with:
If you experience tooth sensitivity during your whitening treatment, don't be alarmed as this is a common temporary side effect. We recommend:
