Teeth Whitening (In-Office & Take-Home)

Tooth whitening to lighten enamel darkened by age, food and drink, offered as both an in-office and a take-home treatment. The in-office PrevDent system brightens teeth in a single supervised appointment, while custom take-home trays let you whiten gradually at your own pace. The dentist checks that teeth and gums are healthy first and protects the soft tissues, so the result is even and the process comfortable.

Whitening at Salvus IDC lightens the natural shade of the teeth using professional-grade peroxide gels under dental supervision, addressing the gradual yellowing and staining that come with age and with coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco. The clinic offers two routes. The in-office PrevDent treatment is carried out in a single supervised appointment: the gums are carefully isolated and protected, the whitening gel is applied to the teeth and activated, and the shade is lifted noticeably in about an hour. The take-home option uses custom trays made to fit your teeth precisely, together with professional gel, so you can whiten in short daily sessions over a couple of weeks and top up later as you wish. Because whitening only works well on clean, healthy teeth, the dentist first confirms there is no active decay or gum disease and usually recommends a hygiene visit beforehand so the gel acts evenly. Temporary sensitivity is common for a day or two and settles on its own. Whitening lightens natural enamel only, so any existing crowns, veneers or fillings keep their original colour — something the dentist will point out when planning front-tooth work. With sensible care and the occasional top-up, results are associated with lasting many months. It is a straightforward, non-invasive way to refresh a smile and a popular finishing touch after hygiene or before prosthetic work.
