Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening lightens the natural shade of the teeth using a controlled peroxide gel. Stomatologia Pastor offers custom take-home tray whitening with White Beauty gels, as well as a more intensive combined method that pairs an in-clinic laser-assisted session with home trays. Whitening works on natural teeth and is best done after a hygiene clean for an even result.

Professional whitening uses a peroxide-based gel to break down the staining within tooth enamel and dentine, lifting the overall shade of natural teeth by several levels. Unlike over-the-counter strips, in-clinic and dentist-supervised systems use higher-quality gels and custom-fitted trays for more even, predictable and longer-lasting results, with the gums protected during treatment. At Stomatologia Pastor two approaches are available. The take-home option uses custom trays made from impressions of your teeth, which you wear with White Beauty whitening gel over a short course at home. The combined method pairs an in-clinic, laser-assisted whitening session for a faster initial result with take-home trays to build and maintain the shade. A professional hygiene appointment beforehand is recommended so the gel acts on clean enamel and the colour comes out evenly. Whitening is suited to adults with healthy teeth and gums who want to reduce yellowing or staining; it does not change the colour of fillings, crowns or veneers, which may need replacing to match a new shade. Temporary tooth sensitivity is common and settles after treatment. Results vary with the starting shade and lifestyle factors such as coffee, tea, red wine and smoking, and can be topped up over time. The dentist checks suitability and explains realistic expectations and aftercare beforehand.
