Teeth Whitening Unlock your brightest you

The cost of tooth bleaching varies depending on the best system to achieve the result you want, without causing you any hassle or discomfort. But there’s no extra cost for your first consultation; it’s just $65 like all other visits - and we will talk you through the options.

Take-home moulds and whitening gel are $450, and an in-chair whitening plus take-home trays is $675. Now that may sound like a lot, but bear in mind you’ll be enjoying your beautiful white smile for a long time to come! And you can check out our flexible payment plans if you’d prefer to get whitening now and pay in comfortable instalments.

Yes, it’s true there are a lot of different places that offer teeth whitening, but what the advertising material doesn’t tell you is that only dentists are able to provide the most effective and versatile types of tooth whitening to achieve your goals. Read more about teeth whitening kits and what to look out for.

Green Door uses Zoom Whitening, which combines the power of blue LED light with rapid-whitening gel. Zoom also utilises Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (ACP) to protect your enamel while improving lustre. 
‍
Zoom teeth whitening is a professional-grade treatment that can be tailored to get the precise results you’re after, with in-office and take-home options. 
‍
And the Green Door team can help you with any other concern you may have about your smile while you’re here. That’s another great reason to have your smile brightened by professionals rather than non-dentists. Why go to two different places when you can find everything you need in one lovely dental studio near you?

Your teeth should stay nice and bright for a long time - most likely between 12-24 months; that’s up to two years! And it’s easy to make lifestyle adjustments to preserve the effect of the treatment. This could include using a straw to drink anything that’s dark coloured - like coffee, red wine and especially anything containing turmeric! Of course, regular brushing, flossing and dental check-up and clean visits will also keep your pearlies whiter for longer. 

Teeth whitening is perfectly safe when it’s done by professional dentists, because dentists are specially trained to understand surrounding issues like gum sensitivity and other conditions. 
‍
However, it is not safe to have tooth bleaching performed by non-dentists that do not have this training. In fact, it can even be dangerous. That’s because dentists start with a proper check-up and can spot any issues that might cause sensitivity to tooth bleaching agents. Additionally, dentists have years of experience working with all other aspects of oral health and are best-placed to make sure you get great results safely. 
‍
Importantly, you must always follow your dentist’s directions while having teeth whitening treatment to ensure you don’t damage your enamel or gums.

Teeth whitening works! The Zoom system can make teeth 8 shades brighter in just 45 minutes in some cases. And that’s thanks to the powerful combination of blue LED light coupled with professional grade whitening gel.

You may have heard that teeth whitening is painful. Many patients do not experience any discomfort at all. But for people with sensitive teeth or gums, there can be some moments of slight discomfort during teeth whitening. And there are cases where whitening treatment can actually cause gum or tooth sensitivity. But when you have teeth whitening done by your dentist, these problems can be predicted and managed quickly, comfortably and safely from the get-go.

So to give yourself the best chance of a pain-free tooth whitening experience, let your dentist guide you through it, rather than a non-dentist, no matter what the marketing materials say. That is the certain way to prevent any issues and avoid discovering you’re prone to sensitivity when you’re already uncomfortable!

The short answer to this question is: you can eat as normal once your teeth whitening program is finished! You must just avoid dark foods and drinks during treatment, when your enamel is a little more porous. That means coffee, red wine, and anything that looks deeply coloured (beetroot, turmeric, dark chocolate … you get the picture). 
‍
But the truth is, once your treatment is finished, it’s easy to make a few tweaks to avoid the foods that stained your teeth in the first place. As mentioned above, purchasing a re-usable straw to keep with you when you’re out and about is a great way to ensure coffee or wine bypass your front teeth especially - the ones you’ve spent time and effort brightening up. 
‍
And you can be vigilant about how frequently you eat other stain-inducing foods to get the best from your treatment for longer. Amazingly, you don’t have to cut anything out - just manage your intake. And - also as mentioned above - regular brushing, flossing and dentist check-up and clean visits will also help your teeth whitening results last longer.
