Professional Teeth Whitening
Wollongong’s Professional Teeth Whitening
With Philips Zoom in-chair teeth whitening, you can unlock a smile that is up to 8 shades whiter in as little as 45 minutes. The added bonus? You get outstanding results with little to no sensitivity.
How are your teeth whitened with Philips Zoom?
Firstly, your dentist will assess your current teeth shade. This step is important, as it allows you and your dentist to see the significant difference in shade that can be achieved once the treatment is complete. Next, your dentist will prepare your mouth for the whitening process. We will apply a layer of advanced whitening gel to your teeth and use our WhiteSpeed blue LED lamp to speed up the whitening process. These lamps have variable settings to ensure your comfort during the procedure. This process will be repeated three times and will only take 45 minutes!
Finally, once you have reached your desired shade, we will apply our post-treatment gel to protect your enamel and reduce sensitivity.
Following our Zoom Teeth Whitening treatment, you’ll leave the dentist chair with an instantly brighter, more confident smile.
Choose up to 8 shades whiter, and get the result you are looking for in under an hour with the Illawarra’s leading in-chair teeth whitening solution.
Why Choose In-Chair Whitening?
1: A stronger solution:
In-chair teeth whitening uses a stronger whitening agent than those available across the counter. The whitening gel used in in-chair treatments contains a higher concentration of hydrogen peroxide, meaning the whitening agent can penetrate the teeth more deeply and break down stubborn stains and discoloration more effectively.
2: A More controlled option
During an in-chair treatment, a dentist will closely monitor the application of the whitening gel, ensuring it is evenly applied and avoiding any areas that may be more sensitive. This helps to minimize the risk of irritation or damage to the teeth or gums.
3: A faster process
Depending on the strength of the whitening agent used, an in-chair treatment can usually be completed in just one visit to Contemporary Smiles’ surgery, whereas take-home treatments can take several days or weeks to achieve the same level of whitening. This is especially important for people who need a quick and effective solution for a special occasion or event.
Furthermore, in-chair teeth whitening can provide immediate results. After an in-chair treatment, our patients can see a noticeable improvement in the colour of their teeth, with these results lasting for up to a year or more with proper care. This can be a big advantage for people wanting to improve the appearance of their teeth quickly and effectively.
4: A safer option
While take-home kits may seem like a convenient and affordable option, they can often contain harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage the teeth or gums if not used correctly. By contrast, in-chair treatments are performed by trained dental professionals who can ensure that the treatment is safe and effective.
