In-surgery teeth whitening - Philip’s Zoom!
If you are looking for a radiant smile transformation that fits your busy schedule? Our Philip’s Zoom! In-surgery whitening treatment, often called ‘laser’ or ‘power’ whitening, is the perfect solution. This advanced system uses light-activated technology to brighten your teeth much more rapidly than at-home kits. In under two hours, you can achieve a noticeably lighter, more dazzling smile – making it an incredibly convenient option for patients with packed diaries.
During the treatment, your gums and lips are carefully protected with a rubber dam, and a professional strength lightening gel is applied to your teeth. A special light then activates the gel, speeding up the whitening process in stages. At each stage, we’ll remove the gel and clean your teeth, allowing us to carefully monitor your progress and ensure the best results.
This treatment is ideal for anyone who wants fast, dramatic results, perfect for special occasions like a wedding, milestone birthday, or a reunion where you want to look your absolute best.

Frequently Asked Questions
Professional teeth whitening significantly differs from over-the-counter (OTC) options primarily in the strength of the whitening agents, the level of customisation, and the crucial aspect of professional supervision. Dentists use much higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which are far more effective at penetrating deep stains and achieving dramatic, long-lasting results. Unlike generic strips or trays, professional treatments often involve custom-fitted trays that ensure even gel distribution and protect your gums from irritation. Furthermore, a dental professional monitors your oral health throughout the process, ensuring safety, addressing any sensitivities, and providing expert guidance for optimal and consistent whitening, which is invaluable compared to the 'one-size-fits-all' approach of most retail products.
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.
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.
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.
Mild tooth sensitivity is a common side effect during the whitening process, but it is usually temporary. If you experience sensitivity, your dentist may recommend using the whitening gel less frequently or for shorter durations. Additionally, using a toothpaste formulated for sensitive teeth can help alleviate any discomfort. It's essential to consult with your dentist if you have any concerns or if sensitivity persists.
