What Is Teeth Whitening
?Teeth whitening is a process that removes stains and discolouration from your teeth, revealing their natural, whiter enamel underneath. Whether it’s coffee, tea, or simply the passage of time, these factors can leave their mark on our teeth, but professional whitening treatments can turn back the clock.
Here in Brisbane, you have a range of teeth whitening options to choose from, depending on your desired timeline and budget. In-chair teeth whitening at a dental practice delivers dramatic results in a single session, perfect for a special occasion or a confidence boost.

Remember, while whitening your teeth is generally safe, it’s always best to consult a dentist at Moorooka Dental Care first. We’ll assess your teeth, discuss your options, and ensure safe and successful teeth whitening results for your unique smile.

Whitening vs Bleaching
While whitening and bleaching are sometimes used interchangeably, they are different. Teeth whitening encompasses a broader range of methods β think of it like the whole spectrum. On one end, you have polishing toothpaste and gentle scrubs that buff away surface stains like coffee and tea. In the middle, there are light-activated gels and whitening rinses that penetrate deeper. On the other extreme, we have actual bleaching agents like hydrogen peroxide, found in dental treatments and stronger at-home whitening kits.
Bleaching, then, is like the high-intensity spotlight on the teeth whitening spectrum. It uses powerful chemicals to break down stubborn stains and even lighten the natural colour of your teeth. This delivers dramatic results, but with potential downsides like increased tooth sensitivity.
So, which one is better?
If you’re looking for a gentle, everyday boost, milder teeth whitening methods are perfect. But for that Hollywood-worthy sparkle, bleaching under a dentist’s supervision can work wonders. Ultimately, consult your dentist to find the perfect fit for your smile and goals, because a happy, healthy smile is the brightest one of all!
At-Home Alternatives
While our in-clinic treatments are the most effective, we understand the convenience of at-home alternatives. We can provide custom-fitted whitening trays and professional-grade whitening gel for you to whiten your teeth at home, ensuring a safe and controlled application.

Frequently askedΒ questions
What causes teeth discolouration?
Teeth naturally get darker over time, but certain factors can accelerate this process, leading to uneven or unwanted teeth discolouration. Here are some common culprits:
- Diet: Dark beverages like coffee, tea, and red wine can stain teeth, while acidic foods and sugary drinks can erode enamel, making teeth appear more yellow.
- Habits: Smoking and chewing tobacco heavily stain teeth and contribute to gum disease, further impacting your smile’s appearance.
- Medications: Certain antibiotics and antihistamines can cause tooth discolouration, especially in children.
- Trauma: Injuries or infections can damage the tooth’s inner structure, leading to internal discolouration.
- Aging: Enamel naturally thins with age, which allows the darker dentine layer underneath to show through, resulting in a yellowing effect.
Can I whiten my teeth at home?
Yes, you can whiten teeth at home, but it is not recommended for lasting effects. For example:
- Tooth Whitening Strips and Gels, applied for 10β14 days, are peroxide-based and can lighten teeth by a shade or two, lasting several months.
- Tray-Based Teeth Whitening Systems involve custom-fitted trays filled with a bleaching gel, worn 1β3 hours daily for up to 4 weeks. These systems offer more noticeable results but at a higher price point.
- Tooth Whitening Toothpastes, though less effective, contain mild abrasives and polishing agents, providing an affordable and convenient option for everyday use.
- Whitening Rinses, used twice a day for 60 seconds, offer a slight whitening effect and are suitable for maintaining results.
- Whitening Chewing Gums are useful for preventing stains, especially after consuming substances that cause discolouration.
It’s important to consult your dentist before trying any at-home methods, especially with sensitive teeth or existing oral health concerns. Your dentist can ensure the safety and suitability of the products for your individual needs.
How long does in-clinic teeth whitening in Brisbane treatment take?
In-clinic teeth whitening treatments in Brisbane generally take between 30 and 90 minutes, depending on the specific system used and your desired level of whitening.
For a quick boost, some clinics offer teeth whitening solutions that take around 30β60 minutes. These typically involve applying a concentrated whitening gel and activating it with LED light for multiple cycles. You can achieve several shades whiter in this short timeframe.
For more dramatic results, dental clinics might offer treatments lasting 60β90 minutes. These may involve stronger gels, multiple applications, or additional steps like using heat or radio frequency. You can expect to see a difference of up to 12 shades whiter with these treatments.
