Why choose Enlighten teeth whitening?

  • The only professional whitening system to guarantee shade B1 – the whitest you can go!
  • A safe, fast and highly effective way to brighten your teeth
  • Achieve a whiter smile in as little as two weeks
  • Designed to reduce tooth sensitivity during your treatment
  • Long-lasting results, with easy top-ups available

What does Enlighten whitening involve?

We’ll take mess-free digital dental impressions at Holmes Dental Care. These are sent to a lab, where your bespoke bleaching trays are engineered. While you’re waiting, we will provide you with Enlighten’s Tooth Serum – a special toothpaste that works to improve the whitening process and strengthen your teeth against sensitivity.

You’ll return to Holmes Dental Care to collect your trays, along with your prescription Enlighten® bleaching gel. Simply wear your trays at home, every night, for around two weeks. Your Enlighten trays are snug and comfortable, making it easy to wear them overnight.

Once your home whitening is complete, we will invite you into the practice for a 40-minute in-surgery Enlighten® treatment. This boosts and fine-tunes the shade of your newly whitened teeth. Keep your trays safe, as you’ll be able to use them in future for top-up treatments to maintain the brightness of your smile.

Frequently asked questions

Is teeth whitening safe?

Teeth whitening treatment is safe when performed by a qualified dental professional. Our treatments are designed to brighten your smile without harming your teeth or enamel. It’s important to avoid unregulated products that can be bought online or in beauty salons, as they can pose risks to your oral health. If you have any concerns or underlying dental issues, ask your dentist before beginning treatment.

How long does Enlighten whitening take?

Enlighten whitening usually takes 2-3 weeks to complete. It involves around two weeks of treatment at home followed by an in-practice Enlighten whitening treatment, which typically takes about an hour.

How long do the results last?

The results of teeth whitening can last for several years. To maintain your bright smile, it’s essential to practise good oral hygiene, avoid consuming too much tea, coffee, or other rich-coloured foods, and follow your dentist’s recommendations. We also offer top-up treatments to keep your smile bright.

Does Enlighten treatment hurt?

Enlighten whitening treatment shouldn’t hurt. Your whitening trays are made to your exact specifications and are comfortable to wear. Enlighten whitening treatment is specially formulated to help reduce sensitivity.

Does teeth whitening work on all teeth?

While teeth whitening can be effective for most people, the results may vary depending on factors such as the original colour of your teeth, the type of stains, and your overall oral health. It is also important to note that teeth whitening treatment is not effective on dental restorations such as crowns, bridges, or veneers.
