Teeth whitening

Whitening will not change the colour of your teeth completely but will lighten the shade, without removing any of the tooth surface. It is a safe procedure when carried out under professional supervision. Results last indefinitely. Just simply touch up your teeth with whitening gel every few years. Sometimes without a touch up, your teeth will start to re-stain by the same things that caused them to discolour in the first place.

It may be necessary to have other dental treatments prior to whitening, as whitening treatments can only be applied to healthy teeth and gums. A visit to the dental hygienist is also recommended prior to whitening treatment, to give the teeth a thorough cleaning and remove any surface stains. Teeth whitening is not effective on dental restorations such as amalgam fillings, metal or porcelain crowns, etc.

At Hest Bank Dental Care we use simple and safe home whitening systems. After checking your dental health, your dentist will take an impression to custom make dental trays that fit snuggly to your teeth. Once your trays are ready, your dentist will give you whitening gel and provide guidance on how to apply this at home, along with the required length of treatment in order to see your personal results. It may take between 3 days and a couple of weeks to see results, depending on your original discolouration and preferred shade.

Temporary sensitivity can affect some patients. If sensitivity is present, wear times should be shortened or made less frequent. Additionally, desensitizing toothpastes, gels, or mouthwashes can be used before or after the whitening process.

Im due to have crowns fitted but I have a gold crown next to the ones that needed fixing. I asked some questions about the gold crown changing to a white one. Which I had fitted at hestbank dental clinic probably 30 years ago. I was happy with the outcome as my questions were answered superbly.

Just a check up and hygiene appointment so it was a pleasant enough experience as I don’t have any issues with my teeth.

I was very frightened at the thought of this procedure, I was put at ease from the moment I went into the surgery and I was spoken to throughout my procedure and reassured constantly.which helped me to feel more comfortable.

Stuart is an intelligent, caring first class dentist. I have never had an issue with him in all the time that I’ve used the dentist, even on an occasion where a new filling failed, pain relief support and prompt follow up was excellent. My adult offspring and husband are also his patients

Staff are very friendly and put me at ease, I'm a very nervous patient so this was very important.

11th January 2026

All the staff are knowledgeable and caring. The hygienist was gentle with my mouth and provided encouragement where I had done well and guidance, rather than just telling me what I needed to do. Reception staff were friendly and efficient.
