I have looked on the internet and there are so many different ways to whiten teeth. I am not going down the route of damaging my teeth enamel by making up some baking soda or using abrasive tooth pastes which damage enamel. What I want to know is how long does it take for your dentist to whiten my teeth and does it only take one session or more to achieve the Colour I want? I will pick best answer please don't tell me to buy any tooth pastes or strips.

The best way is to visit a qualified dentist to bleach your teeth. Providing you don't have any fillings on your front teeth you should have no problem. There are 2 ways dentists will bleach teeth. 1) Power bleaching - normally done in surgery for about 1 hour, bleach is applied then activated by using a blue light. This is an instant result and because so is more likely to cause sensitivity to the teeth and also more likely to cost you more. 2) Overnight bleaching/home bleaching - your dentist will make you a set of trays which you wear at home for at least a couple of hours a day or overnight depending on the concentration of solution given. This will gradually lighten your teeth until you reach your desired shade however this is variable to each person and it does depend on what shade you are starting from initially. In our dental practise, we only do home bleaching as this is much more gentle on the teeth. We charge £400 for upper and lower trays and bleach initially. Please do not be tempted to go to a beauty salon! The do not have the dental knowledge to advise you correctly and it is really illegal for anyone other than a dental surgeon to do with the correct chemicals.
