A brighter smile can make a big difference to your confidence. Whether your teeth have become stained from coffee, tea, red wine or simply through the natural ageing process, professional teeth whitening is a safe and effective way to enhance your smile.
At Active Smile, we offer professional home whitening systems using White Dental Beauty and Advanced Whitening, allowing you to whiten your teeth comfortably at home with guidance from our experienced dental team.
Unlike over-the-counter whitening products, our treatments are tailored specifically to your smile, helping you achieve safe, predictable and long-lasting results.

Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening offers many advantages over shop-bought products.
- Safe and clinically approved treatment
- Custom-made trays for an even result
- Professional-strength whitening gels
- Natural-looking results
- Comfortable treatment carried out at home
- Long-lasting brightness with regular maintenance
Before beginning treatment, one of our dentists will examine your teeth and gums to ensure whitening is suitable for you.
How Does It Work?
Step 1 – Consultation
We’ll examine your teeth, discuss your goals and make sure whitening is the right option for you.
Step 2 – Custom Whitening Trays
Digital scans or impressions are taken so we can create trays that fit your teeth precisely.
Step 3 – Whitening at Home
Once your trays are ready, you’ll receive your whitening kit along with full instructions on how to use it safely at home.
Most patients begin to notice a difference within the first few days, with the full result developing over the following couple of weeks.

How Many Syringes Will I Need?
For patients whitening their teeth for the first time, we generally recommend purchasing three syringes of whitening gel to complete your initial whitening course.
This helps achieve the best possible result while ensuring you have enough gel to whiten both the upper and lower teeth. Your dentist will discuss which whitening system and gel strength is most suitable for you.
Whitening Gel Top-Ups
If you’ve previously completed teeth whitening with Active Smile, you may be able to purchase additional whitening gel to maintain your results.
In line with current professional guidance:
- Top-up whitening gels can only be supplied as part of an ongoing course of treatment.
- Your custom whitening trays must be checked by one of our dentists within the last 6months before additional gel can be supplied.
- This ensures your trays still fit correctly and that whitening remains safe and appropriate for your oral health.
If it has been more than six months since your trays were last assessed, we’ll simply arrange a review appointment before providing further whitening gel.
Looking After Your Results
To help keep your smile brighter for longer, we recommend:
- Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
- Cleaning between your teeth daily
- Attending regular hygiene appointments
- Reducing tea, coffee and red wine where possible
- Avoiding smoking and tobacco products
Many patients choose occasional top-up whitening to keep their smile looking its best.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
Yes. When carried out under the supervision of a dental professional, teeth whitening is a safe and effective cosmetic treatment.
How long will my results last?
Results vary from person to person, but with good oral hygiene and occasional top-up whitening, many patients enjoy a brighter smile for one to three years.
Will whitening work on crowns or fillings?
No. Teeth whitening only changes the colour of natural tooth enamel. Existing crowns, veneers and white fillings will not whiten.
Will my teeth become sensitive?
Some patients experience temporary sensitivity during whitening, but this usually settles quickly once treatment has finished. We’ll recommend the most appropriate whitening system for your teeth and advise you on how to minimise any sensitivity.
Can anyone have their teeth whitened?
Whitening is suitable for most adults with healthy teeth and gums. We’ll carry out an examination first to make sure it’s the right treatment for you
