Teeth Whitening
Aims to lighten the
colour of teeth
Teeth whitening, also known as teeth bleaching, is a common cosmetic dental procedure that aims to lighten the colour of teeth and improve their overall appearance. There are several methods of tooth whitening available, including:
1. Over-the-counter products: This includes whitening toothpaste, gels, strips, and trays that can be purchased at a pharmacy or online. These products typically contain a lower concentration of bleaching agents than professional products, and results may be more gradual.
2. In-chair whitening: This is a professional treatment that is done in a dental office. It typically involves the use of higher concentrations of bleaching agents and a special light or laser to activate the bleaching process. Results can be seen in just one visit, and the procedure is typically completed within an hour.
3. At-home whitening: This method involves the use of custom-fitted trays that are filled with a bleaching gel and worn for a specified period of time. The trays are made by a dentist and are worn at home under the supervision of the patient. The results are visible within a few days to a week.
Philips Zoom
One of the best solutions for teeth whitening is the Philips Zoom system. Philips Zoom is a professional teeth whitening system that is offered by dental professionals. It is a popular choice for those looking to enhance the appearance of their teeth. The system offers both in-chair and at-home solutions, and a free whitening consultation is provided to help determine the best option for the individual's needs.

Packages can be further customized based on your specific requirements.
You may choose between 1 to a maximum of 4, in-chair sessions/cycles using the LED light. Each session/cycle is 15 minutes long. Each package includes a take-home kit as well. The more sessions you do in-chair, the less you will bleach on your own at home. Every option yields the same result, the only difference is the time it will take.

It's important to note that teeth whitening is not suitable for everyone, and it may not work for certain types of discolouration such as those caused by certain medications, excessive fluoride, or tetracycline. It's best to consult with your dentist to see if tooth whitening is a good option for you and which method would be most appropriate.
