Teeth Whitening on the Sunshine Coast

Yes, a consultation is required. We check whether teeth whitening is suitable based on your oral condition. This includes assessing for gum disease, dental work or sensitivity. If approved, we explain the process and provide custom trays and gel. Consultations help ensure that the product is used safely and that the treatment plan is appropriate for your situation.

Tray wear time varies by product and individual needs. We provide instructions during your appointment. Most people wear trays daily for a set period, usually up to an hour, depending on the gel used. You’ll also receive advice on duration, care and what to do if you experience sensitivity or want to pause treatment for any reason.

Take-home teeth whitening involves custom trays and a whitening gel. After a consultation, trays are made from impressions of your teeth. The gel is applied at home using the trays for a set time each day. Instructions are provided to help guide the process, and follow-up appointments can be arranged if needed. This method may be suitable for people with healthy teeth and gums.

Over-the-counter whitening kits are not individually assessed for your teeth or oral health. They often use generic trays that may not fit properly, increasing the risk of uneven results or gum irritation. We recommend a consultation before starting any whitening treatment so your suitability can be assessed and the product used safely under professional guidance.
