Teeth Whitening in Lewisham for a Brighter, More Confident Smile

At ToothBrush Dental in Lewisham, we offer professional teeth whitening to safely brighten your smile and remove years of staining caused by coffee, tea, red wine, smoking and everyday life. If your teeth look dull, yellow or uneven in colour, dentist-supervised whitening is a predictable way to achieve a fresher, more confident smile without damaging your enamel.

Unlike shop-bought whitening products, our treatments are carefully planned and monitored by dental professionals. Before we start, we carry out a full examination to check your teeth and gums, discuss your expectations and choose the most suitable whitening system for you. We will also explain how whitening works, what shade changes are realistic, and how to maintain your results for as long as possible.

At ToothBrush Dental, we provide two main types of teeth whitening:

  • Home teeth whitening (custom trays) – This is one of the most effective and gentle ways to whiten your teeth gradually. We take impressions or digital scans to create thin, comfortable custom trays that fit your teeth precisely. You’ll use these at home with professional whitening gel for a set number of hours each day or overnight, usually over 1–2 weeks. This option is ideal if you prefer to whiten at your own pace and top up your smile in the future.

  • In-surgery “laser” teeth whitening – Sometimes called power whitening or chairside whitening, this treatment is carried out in the clinic for faster results. A stronger whitening gel is applied to your teeth and activated with a special light. This can noticeably brighten your smile in a single visit, making it a popular choice before weddings, holidays or important events. We often recommend combining in-surgery whitening with home trays for the most stable, long-term outcome.

Throughout your whitening journey, our team will give you clear advice on what to eat and drink, how to reduce sensitivity, and how to keep your teeth looking bright with good daily hygiene and regular hygiene visits.

If you’re looking for safe, professional teeth whitening in Lewisham – including both home whitening kits and in-surgery laser whitening – ToothBrush Dental is here to help.

Teeth Whitening in Lewisham

When Your Teeth No Longer Look as Bright as They Used To

It is completely normal for teeth to darken gradually over the years.

Every day drinks, food, and lifestyle habits contribute to external staining, while natural ageing affects the enamel from within.

Left untreated, these stains can become more noticeable and impact your confidence.

Professional whitening helps you reveal a fresher, cleaner looking smile.

At ToothBrush Dental in Lewisham, you receive clear explanations and supportive care so you always feel informed before starting treatment.
