Accessible and affordable smile enhancement in Christchurch

Tooth whitening is the process of removing stains and discolouration from teeth through a bleaching process to make them look “whiter”. For heavily stained teeth, a procedure as simple as a scale and polish from a dental hygienist can significantly improve their appearance and make them look “whiter.” Tooth whitening carried out by beauticians and hair stylists is illegal and could be dangerous.

Types of Teeth Whitening: Choosing the Right Option for You

We offer two main types of professional teeth whitening that can be customised to suit your lifestyle and goals:

  • Professional Home Whitening Kits: Our custom-made professional home whitening kits provide a more flexible whitening solution. After taking an impression of your teeth, our dental team creates personalised whitening trays that fit perfectly over your teeth. Paired with professional-strength whitening gel, this option allows you to whiten your teeth at your own pace—whether for a few hours each day or overnight—while enjoying the comfort of home. It’s ideal for individuals who prefer a more gradual approach with the flexibility to maintain their results long-term.

Both methods rely on a peroxide-based gel to bleach the teeth and remove stains. The strength of the peroxide can be adjusted based on your preferences, with stronger concentrations offering faster results but also a higher likelihood of sensitivity. We will always guide you on the best treatment option based on your unique needs and dental health.

Professional Home Whitening

To make a professional home whitening kit, your dentist will take an impression (mould) of your teeth. Your dentist’s technician will then use this to cast a model of your teeth from plaster and make your custom teeth-whitening trays from this. Once these trays have been made in about 2 weeks, you use them in combination with professional whitening gel (provided by your dentist) until you are happy with the results. Depending on the teeth-whitening system, some trays need to be worn overnight, while others for only 1-2 hours a day.

How much whiter will my teeth look?

This varies from individual to individual and also depends on the type of whitening system used. Some people respond very well to teeth whitening and have dramatically whiter teeth as a result. Most people notice a significant improvement in the colour of their teeth. People with heavily stained yellow teeth tend to have more dramatic results than those with slightly discoloured teeth. Your dentist will be able to advise you on the likely results following a consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the teeth whitening process take?

The in-surgery whitening treatment at Hoburne Dental typically takes around 1-2 hours, with immediate results you can see after the session. If you opt for a professional home whitening kit, the treatment duration depends on your specific plan, with trays being worn for a few hours each day or overnight for a few weeks.

Is teeth whitening safe?

Yes, professional teeth whitening at Hoburne Dental is completely safe when performed by our trained dental professionals. We use high-quality peroxide-based gels that are applied in a controlled environment to minimise the risk of side effects. We’ll ensure the treatment is suitable for your dental health and guide you through any potential risks, such as temporary sensitivity.

How long will my teeth stay white after the treatment?

The results of teeth whitening can vary depending on your lifestyle and dental habits. While the whitening effects can last for several months, maintaining a bright smile may require touch-up treatments. To prolong the results, we recommend avoiding stain-causing foods and drinks like coffee, red wine, and smoking. Regular dental check-ups will also help keep your smile looking its best.

After years of many missing teeth, eating was becoming difficult and unenjoyable. Hoburne's implants changed all that and I now have a full set of teeth and once again enjoy eating.
