Teeth Whitening

In-office teeth whitening costs AED 2,200 (+VAT) and home teeth whitening with custom-made trays costs AED 1,800 (+VAT).

In-office Zoom teeth whitening, including the prep time, usually takes between 1.5 to 2 hours to complete. You can see the results right away.

Depending on how well you care for your teeth, the results of in-office whitening can last from 6 months to 2 years. Your dentist or hygienist may suggest a top-up kit you can do at home. You can also book for a touch up session after 6 months or a year, as advised.

Yes. A lot of people who have sensitive teeth have exposed tooth roots surface. When we do in-office whitening, we protect the exposed roots and gum tissue from any bleach, and this eliminates sensitivity during whitening. The alternative is to do whitening at home. We would do a desensitizing treatment and give you a toothpaste for sensitivity before we send you off to do everything on your own.

The best candidates for teeth whitening are those with healthy teeth and gums. You will be advised to get a full dental check-up prior to your whitening appointment to ensure that you don’t have cavities or any other issues with your oral health. For best results, it is recommended that you have a clean prior to your appointment.

There are many factors that cause staining or discoloration of the teeth. The most common ones include coffee, tea and red wine, tobacco use, dental trauma, ageing and certain medications. To keep your teeth bright after your treatment, avoid tobacco and stain-causing food and drinks for several days after your treatment. Regular brushing and flossing will also help remove buildup of stain.

Depending on the concentration of the whitening gel, you will have to wear your trays for about one to four hours (or more) every day for two weeks to see maximum results. Your dentist or hygienist will give you tailored advice on your wear time and length of treatment.
