Professional Teeth Whitening, Designed Around You

Teeth can become discoloured over time due to coffee, tea, wine, smoking, ageing or certain medications. At Mia, we assess the cause of staining before recommending the most suitable whitening approach ensuring safe, consistent and natural-looking results. Our treatments are designed to:

  • Lift surface stains and deeper discolouration
  • Minimise sensitivity with controlled application
  • Deliver even, predictable results

In-Chair Whitening (Fast Results)

Our in-practice whitening treatments are performed in a controlled clinical environment, allowing us to safely achieve visible results in a single visit.

  • Treatment time: ±60 minutes
  • Immediate, noticeable results
  • Ideal for patients wanting a quick transformation

At-Home Whitening (Flexible & Gradual)

We also offer dentist-approved home whitening kits, allowing you to brighten your smile gradually in the comfort of your own home.

  • More flexible and budget-friendly
  • Easy to incorporate into your routine
  • Ideal for maintaining in-chair results

What to Expect

Before whitening, we’ll ensure your teeth and gums are healthy and free from underlying issues such as cavities or active gum disease. This helps reduce sensitivity and ensures the best possible outcome. Once cleared:

  • A professional whitening agent is applied
  • Gums are protected for comfort and safety
  • Results are monitored and adjusted to your desired shade

A Simple Way to Refresh Your Smile

Teeth whitening is a quick, effective way to enhance your appearance and boost confidence — whether for a special occasion or as part of your ongoing dental care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Unfortunately, teeth whitening is only an option for natural teeth. This is because the teeth whitening method works on the natural tooth's enamel. Therefore, restorations like dentures, veneers, crowns and bridges will need to be replaced if they become stained or discoloured.

The D65 Teeth Whitening process can lighten your natural teeth by up to 10 shades. However, this depends on the number of sessions you have and the current state of your natural teeth.

When done professionally, not at all. Seeking your teeth whitening through a trusted and skilled professional will ensure that no damage occurs to the enamel. Research has also shown that teeth whitening has no impact on the strength and minerality of the teeth.

Results will vary depending on the individual but can last between a month and a year. You can prolong your results by avoiding foods and beverages that tend to stain the teeth, such as alcohol, coffee, spices and smoking.

Teeth whitening can cause some sensitivity to the enamel and gums, so it's essential to let Mia Healthcare know if you experience tooth sensitivity in general and during the sessions.

We price our teeth whitening treatment based on the number of sessions and materials used. In-office teeth whitening tends to be more expensive, but you are guaranteed professional care and proper application with little to no risks.

At-home whitening kits are available, but we tend to advise against them. It's always best to see a professional for these procedures to prevent damaging your tooth enamel and causing irreparable harm.
