Professional whitening, done by your trusted dental team.

We offer two professional whitening solutions to suit different lifestyles and goals.

• The first is In-Chair Whitening - a powerful, clinically proven treatment carried out right here in our Unley practice that delivers dramatic results in a single appointment.
• The second is Boutique At-Home Whitening - a premium at-home teeth whitening system designed for safe, effective, and long-lasting results. Boutique Whitening trays are custom-made for each patient using advanced 3D scanning technology, ensuring a precise fit that maximises whitening results while minimising saliva ingress and sensitivity.

During you consultation, our dentist will help you decide which teeth whitening option in Unley is the better fit for your situation.

This is one of the most common questions we get.

Over-the-counter whitening products, such as whitening toothpastes and strips, work primarily on the surface of the teeth, removing external stains from tea, coffee, and wine.

Professional whitening treatments like Zoom and Boutique work differently - they penetrate the enamel itself to break down the stains inside the tooth, resulting in a significantly greater and longer-lasting lightening effect. There really is no comparison in terms of results.

Professional teeth whitening carried out under the supervision of a qualified dentist is safe and well-researched.

Some patients experience mild, temporary tooth sensitivity during or shortly after treatment, this is normal and typically settles within a day or two.

Our team will assess your suitability for whitening before treatment begins and take every precaution to make sure you have the most comfortable experience possible.

Zoom is one of the world's most trusted and widely used professional whitening systems.

The treatment is carried out in a single appointment at our Unley practice and typically takes around an hour. A professional-strength whitening gel is applied to the teeth and activated using a specially designed light, which accelerates the whitening process.

Most patients leave their appointment with teeth that are several shades lighter - and the results are immediate and visible. It's the fastest and most dramatic whitening option we offer.

• Smile Assessment – Your dentist evaluates your teeth and determines if you’re a candidate for Boutique Whitening.
• Digital Scan – We capture a precise 3D scan of your teeth. This scan is sent to our specialised lab to create your custom whitening trays.
• Tray Fabrication – The lab carefully manufactures your trays using high-quality materials designed for comfort and effectiveness.
• Tray Delivery & Instructions – Once your trays are ready (usually within 7 working days), you’ll return to the practice to collect them and receive detailed instructions on using your whitening gel safely.
• At-Home Whitening – Follow the prescribed routine to achieve brighter, whiter teeth, all under professional guidance.

Boutique Whitening provides several advantages over traditional home whitening methods:

• Custom fit trays – Each tray is individually crafted to fit your teeth perfectly for consistent results.
• High-quality materials – Designed to prevent saliva from interfering with the whitening process, improving effectiveness.
• Professional oversight – Your whitening is guided by our experienced dental team, ensuring safety and optimal outcomes.
• Convenient at-home use – Enjoy the flexibility of whitening in the comfort of your own home at your own pace.

Most adults with generally healthy teeth and gums are suitable candidates for professional whitening.

It's worth noting that whitening treatments work on natural tooth enamel and won't change the colour of crowns, veneers, or composite fillings — so if you have visible restorations on your front teeth, this is something your dentist will factor into the conversation.

A quick assessment at your consultation will give you a clear picture of what's achievable in your individual case.
