Beauty

Noticeably Brighter Results

Professional-grade whitening agents achieve results that over-the-counter products simply cannot match — producing a visibly whiter smile in a safe and controlled way.

Strength

Clinically Safe Treatment

Whitening carried out under dental supervision protects your enamel and gums throughout the process. Your dentist ensures the treatment is appropriate for your teeth before you begin.

Safety

Custom-Fitted Trays

Your whitening trays are made from precise impressions of your teeth, ensuring even contact with the gel and a more consistent, thorough result across every surface.

Durability

Manageable Sensitivity

Professionally prescribed whitening is designed to minimise sensitivity. If you have sensitive teeth, your dentist can adjust the formulation and treatment schedule to suit your needs.

Personalised Care

Long-Lasting Improvement

With good oral hygiene and occasional top-up treatments, professional whitening results can last for a year or more — keeping your smile looking fresh and bright.

Quick Recovery

UNDERSTANDING TEETH WHITENING

What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?

Professional teeth whitening uses clinically formulated whitening agents, prescribed and supplied by your dentist, to gently lighten the natural shade of your teeth. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional whitening is safe, controlled, and able to deliver significantly more noticeable results — without causing unnecessary sensitivity or damage to the enamel.

At Hilton Dental Care, whitening treatment is custom-made for you. Precise impressions are taken to create trays that fit your teeth exactly, ensuring the whitening gel is applied evenly and effectively. Patients from across Hilton, Hatton, Willington, and the surrounding villages in South Derby choose professional whitening as a standalone treatment or as a finishing touch following other cosmetic work.

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Whitening

Find answers to the most common questions about Invisalign.

Is teeth whitening safe?

Yes — professional teeth whitening prescribed and supervised by a dentist is a safe and well-established treatment. The products used are clinically formulated to protect your enamel and gums while delivering effective results. Whitening carried out without dental supervision, using unregulated products, carries significantly more risk.

Will whitening work on crowns, veneers, or fillings?

No — whitening gel only works on natural tooth enamel and will not lighten crowns, veneers, composite bonding, or fillings. If you have any restorations in your smile zone, your dentist will discuss how to achieve a consistent result and whether any replacements may be worth considering alongside your whitening treatment.

How long do results last?

Results vary depending on diet, lifestyle, and oral hygiene habits, but most patients enjoy noticeably whiter teeth for twelve months or more. Avoiding heavy consumption of staining foods and drinks, not smoking, and maintaining good oral hygiene will all help prolong your results. Top-up gel can be used to refresh the shade over time.

Is teeth whitening suitable for sensitive teeth?

Many patients with sensitive teeth can still undergo professional whitening safely. Your dentist can prescribe a lower-concentration gel or adjust the wearing schedule to reduce any discomfort. Using a sensitive toothpaste in the weeks before treatment can also help prepare your teeth.

How white will my teeth get?

Results depend on the natural shade of your teeth, the cause of any discolouration, and how consistently you follow the treatment schedule. Your dentist will give you a realistic expectation during your consultation, based on an assessment of your current shade and whitening goals.
