Achieve a Brighter Smile with Teeth Whitening in Preston
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that lightens the colour of your teeth. Over time, teeth can become stained by food, drinks, tobacco use, and certain medications. Teeth whitening uses bleaching agents, such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, to break down these stains and lighten the enamel, the outer layer of your teeth.
Professional teeth whitening treatments, like the one we offer at Watling Street Road Dentist & Implant Clinic, are typically more effective than over-the-counter options. This is because we can use stronger bleaching agents and ensure the whitening products are applied safely and effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, professional teeth whitening carried out by a registered dental professional is a safe and well-established treatment. We use a regulated whitening gel that is applied via custom-fitted trays made from impressions of your teeth. The gel works by penetrating the enamel and breaking down the compounds responsible for staining. Because the trays are fitted precisely to your teeth, the gel stays where it should and does not irritate the gums.
Results vary depending on the natural shade of your teeth, the cause of the staining, and how consistently you use the trays. Most patients see a noticeable improvement within two weeks of daily use. Teeth whitening is most effective on natural enamel staining caused by food, drink, and lifestyle factors. It does not change the colour of existing crowns, veneers, or composite restorations.
Some temporary sensitivity is common during and shortly after whitening treatment, particularly to hot and cold. This usually resolves within a day or two of completing each whitening session. Using a sensitivity toothpaste in the days leading up to and during treatment can help. If you already have significant sensitivity, let us know at your consultation and we can advise on the most comfortable approach.
Over-the-counter whitening products are legally limited to very low concentrations of active whitening agent in the UK, which means results are minimal at best. Professional whitening using custom trays and prescription-strength gel gives far better, more reliable results. Whitening strips and whitening toothpastes do not penetrate the enamel in the same way and can cause uneven results when used without professional supervision.
With a good oral hygiene routine and reduced consumption of staining food and drinks, whitening results can last one to two years or longer. Top-up whitening at home using your custom trays and additional gel is straightforward and much more cost-effective than undergoing a full course of treatment again. You can book a teeth whitening consultation or request top-up gel online through our website.
