Professional Teeth Whitening (Beyond Lamp)

Professional in-chair teeth whitening using the Beyond accelerator lamp to lighten the natural shade of the teeth, combined with custom take-home trays to extend and maintain the result. Carried out by the dental team after a check-up and hygiene assessment, it lifts staining from coffee, tea, wine and ageing. Dental Corner also offers a PrevDent system, home tray whitening and internal whitening for a single darkened tooth.

Professional teeth whitening uses a peroxide-based gel to break down the staining that builds up within tooth enamel over time, lightening the overall shade of the smile. In-chair whitening applies a stronger gel under the supervision of the dental team, with an accelerator lamp — here the Beyond system — used to speed up the reaction so a visible change is achieved in a single appointment. At Dental Corner whitening follows a check-up to confirm the teeth and gums are healthy, as existing decay, leaking fillings or gum problems are treated first and any plaque is removed so the gel works evenly. During the in-chair session the gums are protected, the gel is applied to the teeth in cycles and activated with the lamp. Custom take-home trays and gel are provided so the result can be topped up and maintained at home. The clinic also offers the PrevDent whitening system, a standalone home-tray option, and internal (non-vital) whitening for a single tooth that has darkened after root canal treatment. Some temporary sensitivity during or after whitening is common and usually settles within a day or two. Whitening suits adults wanting a brighter smile on healthy natural teeth; it does not change the colour of existing crowns, veneers or fillings, which is discussed at consultation, and it is generally avoided during pregnancy.
