Edna Dental Clinic

Teeth whitening

In-clinic whitening with a professional gel to lighten natural tooth colour, after a check that your teeth and gums are healthy.

Who it is for

Adults with natural tooth discolouration. Whitening does not change the colour of fillings, crowns or veneers.

What happens during treatment

  1. We check for decay and gum problems and record your starting shade.
  2. Gums are protected with a barrier.
  3. Whitening gel is applied in short cycles.
  4. The new shade is recorded and you receive aftercare advice.

Aftercare

  • Temporary sensitivity is common for 24–48 hours.
  • Avoid tea, coffee, turmeric-rich food and tobacco for 48 hours.

Questions about this treatment

How long does the result last?

It varies with diet and habits; many people have touch-ups every one to two years.

Why is GST added?

Whitening is a cosmetic service, so 18% GST applies and is shown separately on your bill.
