Home Teeth Whitening

Home teeth whitening at Modrý pavilon uses custom-fitted trays and professional-strength whitening gel to lighten the natural shade of the teeth gradually and comfortably at home. The dental team takes impressions to create trays tailored to your teeth and provides clear instructions for safe use. A gift-voucher option is available.

Home (take-home) teeth whitening is a dentist-supervised method of lightening tooth colour using custom-made trays filled with a professional whitening gel, worn for a set period each day over one to two weeks. It produces gradual, controlled results and is gentler on sensitivity than some in-chair methods. **How it works:** The whitening gel (typically a peroxide-based agent) releases oxygen that breaks down stain molecules within the enamel and dentine, lightening the overall shade of the teeth. Because the trays are custom-made from impressions of your teeth, the gel is held evenly against the tooth surfaces and kept away from the gums as much as possible, improving both results and comfort compared with one-size-fits-all kits. **The process:** The dental team takes impressions and produces your custom trays. You then apply a small amount of gel and wear the trays at home as instructed — usually for a defined period daily over one to two weeks — until the desired shade is reached. Because you keep the trays, top-up whitening is straightforward in future. **Sensitivity and aftercare:** Temporary tooth sensitivity or mild gum irritation can occur and usually resolves after treatment; the team advises on managing this. Avoiding strongly coloured foods and drinks (coffee, red wine, etc.) during and shortly after the course helps maintain results. **Suitability:** A dental check beforehand confirms the teeth and gums are healthy enough for whitening. Whitening lightens natural teeth only and does not change the colour of fillings, crowns or veneers.
