In-Chair Teeth Whitening in Oakleigh

What is in-chair teeth whitening?

In-chair teeth whitening is a professional whitening treatment done in the dental clinic. A high-strength whitening gel is applied and activated under controlled conditions. It provides faster, noticeable results in a single visit.

We use clinically approved whitening systems and advanced LED (light activation technology) to remove stains and discolouration caused by coffee, tea, wine, smoking, or ageing.

The procedure is performed entirely under the supervision of your dentist. and within about one hour, you can enjoy a noticeably whiter smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How long does in-chair whitening take?

Treatment usually takes about 60–90 minutes, including preparation, whitening application, and post-treatment care instructions.

2. How much whiter will my teeth get?

It depends on the initial colour of the teeth, and the number of short sessions that can be performed. Results can vary between individuals, and also between different teeth.

3. Is in-chair whitening safe?

Yes. We use TGA approved whitening products. Teeth sensitivity after the whitening session is expected, and most patients reported that it lasts 1-2 days. A tooth paste for sensitive teeth can help reduce sensitivity, and we also can supply a special gel to help reduce the sensitivity.

4. How long do results last?

Results can last 6–12 months or longer with good oral hygiene and by avoiding staining foods and drinks. Many patients maintain their brightness using take-home whitening kits. Remember that it depends on your lifestyle and the frequency of consuming staining foods and drinks.
