Teeth Whitening

Coffee, tea, red wine, and time all leave their mark on your smile. Professional whitening lifts years of stain safely and evenly — something no drugstore strip can match. Spinel Dental offers Philips Zoom in-office whitening for dramatic same-day results, plus custom take-home kits for gradual brightening on your schedule.

Your two whitening options

Zoom in-office whitening is the fastest route to a brighter smile: professional-strength gel activated under a special lamp, with your gums fully protected, in about 90 minutes. It's the choice for weddings, reunions, interviews — any time you want results now.

Custom take-home whitening uses trays moulded precisely to your teeth with professional gel. Worn for a short period daily over one to two weeks, they whiten evenly and are yours to reuse for touch-ups.

Why professional whitening beats store-bought

  • Stronger, safer — professional-grade gel with your gums and enamel protected.
  • Even results — custom trays and controlled application mean no blotchy patches.
  • Sensitivity managed — we use desensitizing protocols before and after treatment.
  • An honest assessment first — we confirm your stains will actually respond to whitening (some, like tetracycline staining or discoloured fillings, need a different approach such as veneers or bonding).

Keeping your smile bright

Whitening results typically last one to three years, longer with good habits. Rinse after coffee or wine, keep up your hygiene visits, and use your take-home trays for occasional touch-ups.

Good to know

Teeth Whitening — your questions answered

Is teeth whitening safe?

Yes — professional whitening under dental supervision is safe for your enamel. We examine your teeth first to make sure there's no decay or gum problem that should be treated before whitening.

Will whitening make my teeth sensitive?

Some patients feel temporary sensitivity for a day or two. We minimize it with desensitizing gel and can adjust the treatment strength for sensitive teeth.

Will whitening work on my crowns or fillings?

No — whitening only changes natural tooth enamel. If you have visible crowns, veneers, or fillings, we'll plan the order of treatment so everything matches beautifully.

How white will my teeth get?

Most patients brighten several shades. The result depends on your starting shade and the cause of the discolouration — we'll give you a realistic preview at your consultation.
