Professional Teeth Whitening Options
We offer in-clinic whitening with Zoom and Flash, alongside professional home whitening using custom-made trays. In-clinic treatment is carried out by our trained dental hygienists, while home whitening follows a prescribed schedule with guidance from your dental team. Your oral health, starting tooth shade, sensitivity and preferences help determine the most suitable approach.
Professional In-Clinic Whitening
Zoom Teeth Whitening
Zoom teeth whitening is an in-clinic treatment that combines professional whitening gel with LED light. Your trained dental hygienist prepares your teeth and protects the surrounding gums before applying the treatment.
Before starting, your hygienist reviews your tooth shade and explains the expected result, appointment time and possible sensitivity. The treatment follows the recommended application protocol, with your comfort checked throughout the appointment.
The amount of whitening achieved depends on your starting shade and how your teeth respond. Afterwards, your hygienist provides advice on caring for your smile and maintaining the result. Explore our dedicated Zoom page for more information about the procedure.

Professional Home Teeth Whitening
Professional home teeth whitening uses custom-made trays and whitening gel supplied by your dental team. Your trays are made to fit your teeth, and your hygienist explains how much gel to use and how long to wear them.
Home whitening may be recommended as a treatment option or to help maintain an in-clinic result. The schedule depends on the product supplied and your individual needs. Results develop over a course of treatment and vary between patients. Your home whitening care includes:
- Professional whitening gel
- Custom-made whitening trays
- Hygienist consultation and instructions
Using Your Home Whitening Trays
- Follow the gel quantity, wearing time and treatment schedule prescribed by your dental team.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke while wearing your whitening trays.
- Contact your hygienist if you experience significant sensitivity, irritation or problems with the fit.

FAQs
Your Teeth Whitening Questions Answered
How much does teeth whitening cost in Dubai?
Our advertised teeth whitening offer is AED 1,300. Please contact our team to confirm which treatment it applies to, what is included and the current booking terms. Fees for other whitening options or any additional dental care will be explained separately before treatment.
How does professional teeth whitening work?
Teeth whitening, also called dental whitening or bleaching, uses agents such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide to break down compounds responsible for discolouration within natural teeth. The product and application method depend on the treatment selected. Whitening changes tooth colour; it does not remove tartar or replace professional teeth cleaning.
Which teeth whitening treatment is best for me?
There is no single best treatment for everyone. Your hygienist will consider your oral health, starting tooth shade, existing dental work and sensitivity before discussing in-clinic or professional home whitening. Your preferred routine and expectations will also help guide the recommendation.
Do I need a consultation before teeth whitening?
Yes. Your teeth and gums should be assessed before whitening. Your hygienist will discuss your goals, previous whitening experience and any sensitivity. Existing crowns, veneers and fillings are also reviewed because they do not whiten like natural teeth. If a dental problem needs attention, a dentist may need to assess or treat it first.
How is professional whitening different from shop-bought kits?
Professional whitening includes an assessment and advice based on your teeth and gums. Treatment may take place at the clinic or at home using custom-made trays and a prescribed whitening gel. Shop-bought kits do not include this individual assessment, and their products, tray fit and instructions can differ.
Am I suitable for teeth whitening?
Suitability depends on your oral health and the cause of the discolouration. Your dental team will assess your teeth, gums, sensitivity and existing restorations before recommending treatment. Some types of staining respond differently, and dental problems may need attention before whitening can proceed.
How long does teeth whitening take?
In-clinic appointment time depends on the whitening system, preparation and your treatment plan. Our team will confirm how much time to allow when booking. Home whitening takes place over a prescribed course, with tray-wearing times based on the gel supplied. Follow your instructions rather than extending treatment to try to speed up the result.
Is teeth whitening safe, and does it use a laser?
Professional whitening begins with an assessment to check whether treatment is suitable for you. Temporary sensitivity and gum irritation can occur, and your hygienist will explain the precautions and aftercare.
Our in-clinic Zoom and Flash treatments use light-assisted whitening systems. Although you may see these treatments described as “laser teeth whitening”, we do not offer a separate laser whitening procedure.
How long do teeth whitening results last?
Whitening results are not permanent. Their duration varies with your starting tooth shade, oral hygiene and habits such as smoking or regularly consuming staining foods and drinks. Your hygienist can advise on maintaining the result and whether future top-up treatment would be appropriate.
How much whiter can my teeth become?
The change in shade depends on the type of discolouration and how your teeth respond to treatment. Your hygienist will review your starting shade and discuss realistic expectations. A specific number of shades cannot be guaranteed, and existing crowns, veneers or fillings may limit how evenly your overall smile changes.
Can I have teeth whitening if I have sensitive teeth?
Tell your hygienist about sensitivity before starting treatment. A dentist may need to assess its cause before whitening proceeds. Depending on your needs, your dental team may recommend a different approach or delaying treatment. Temporary sensitivity can also occur during or after whitening; contact the clinic if it is significant or persists.
Do I need teeth cleaning before whitening?
Your hygienist will assess whether plaque, tartar or surface stains should be removed first. If professional teeth cleaning is recommended, the team will explain its timing. Cleaning and whitening serve different purposes, and there is no single preparation schedule suitable for every patient.
How can I maintain my whitening results?
Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and cleaning between your teeth. Coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco can contribute to staining over time. Follow the aftercare instructions for your treatment and attend dental reviews at the interval recommended by your dental team. Ask your hygienist before using additional whitening products.
Can I have teeth whitening during pregnancy?
Tell your dental team if you are pregnant before arranging whitening. As an elective cosmetic treatment, whitening is generally postponed during pregnancy. Your dentist can advise on routine dental care and discuss when to reconsider whitening. Read our blog if you need detailed information on doing dental procedures while pregnant or breastfeeding.
How do I use my professional home whitening kit?
Your hygienist will demonstrate how to apply the whitening gel to your custom-made trays and explain the wearing schedule. Use only the prescribed amount and follow the instructions for the product supplied. Do not eat, drink or smoke while wearing the trays. Contact your dental team if you develop significant sensitivity or gum irritation.
