Dr. Mangat will evaluate your teeth and oral health to determine if you are a good candidate for teeth whitening. Your goals will be discussed plus any concerns you may have, such as tooth sensitivity.
In-Office Whitening
- Your teeth are cleaned to remove any surface debris and plaque. A protective barrier is used to shield the rest of the mouth from the bleaching agent.
- The whitening gel is administered to the teeth and a special light or laser shines on it to enhance the whitening process. The gel may be reapplied the amount of times required to achieve the agreed upon level of whiteness.
- After the final application, the gel is removed, and your teeth are rinsed. You will see immediate results, and your dentist may provide you with aftercare instructions to maintain your new smile.
Take-Home Whitening Kits (if preferred)
- We will take impressions of your teeth to create custom-fitted whitening trays.
- You will be given a whitening gel and instructions on how to apply it to the trays. Typically, you will wear the trays for a specified period each day over one to two weeks.
- We will see how your progress is going and make adjustments as needed to ensure optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is teeth whitening safe?
Yes, teeth whitening is safe when done by a trained dental team at South Hill Dentist. Your dentist will assess your oral health history and ensure your gums and lips are protected during the treatment. Most people enjoy a brighter smile with little to no side effects.
How long does teeth whitening last?
Teeth whitening results can last for months, depending on your personal habits. Avoiding such habits as drinking coffee or tea or smoking helps results last longer. You can also always get a touch-up if you want to refresh your smile.
How often can I whiten my teeth safely?
Most people can safely whiten their teeth every six months to a year. Your dentist will help you determine when it will be best for your teeth and lifestyle. Whether conventional or laser, using the dentist’s advice will help keep your smile bright and healthy.
Can whitening treatments cause tooth sensitivity?
Some people experience some mild sensitivity after whitening, but this should subside after a few days. We at South Hill Dentist take as many steps as possible to protect your teeth and reduce discomfort. Most patients feel great and often use words of delight after their new smile is revealed.
What should I avoid after whitening my teeth?
After whitening, for at least 24 to 48 hours, try to avoid dark-coloured foods and drinks, including coffee or tea and red wine. This helps avoid new stains that will detract from the brightness of your teeth. Brushing regularly and drinking lots of water will help maintain your results.
How do I choose the best whitening treatment for me?
At South Hill Dentist, we provide both in-office whitening and take-home kits. After examining your teeth and their shade, your dentist will help you choose either option based on your comfort, desired level of whiteness, and when it will work into your schedule. By being very clear about your individual needs and clinical findings, we can offer you the safest, most effective whitening that is available.
