Tooth whitening is a non-invasive way to freshen up your smile and avoids irreversible techniques like crowns or veneers on healthy teeth. The gold standard is home whitening using customised mouth trays. Some patients can experience some temporary sensitivity but it’s not usually a problem in achieving that more confident smile.
