Introduction
At Smile Perfection, we specialize in professional teeth whitening services that can help you achieve a brighter and more confident smile.
Our experienced dental team in Pretoria is dedicated to providing safe and effective teeth whitening treatments using advanced techniques and technologies. Discover how our teeth whitening services can give you the dazzling smile you’ve always desired.
What is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is an affordable cosmetic dental procedure aimed at removing stains and discoloration from the teeth, resulting in a whiter and brighter smile.
Over time, factors such as age, lifestyle habits, and certain foods or drinks can cause tooth discoloration, affecting the appearance of your smile.
Professional teeth whitening is a proven and reliable solution that can restore the natural whiteness of your teeth.
Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments
We offer two primary types of teeth whitening treatments to cater to our patients’ diverse needs:
- In-office teeth whitening is a quick and effective way to whiten your teeth. During this procedure, your dentist will apply a whitening gel to your teeth and use a special light to activate the gel. The entire procedure typically takes about an hour.
- At-home teeth whitening is a more affordable option that allows you to whiten your teeth in the comfort of your own home. With this option, you will receive a custom-made whitening tray and whitening gel. You will apply the gel to your teeth for a specified period of time each day for several weeks.
Preparation
Preparing for a teeth whitening procedure can help you achieve the best possible results and minimize any discomfort or sensitivity. Here are some tips to follow before your appointment:
- Consultation: Begin with a consultation with our dental professionals. We’ll evaluate your oral health and discuss your goals, tailoring a whitening treatment plan just for you.
- Dental Cleaning: A clean canvas is key to a masterpiece. Consider a dental cleaning to remove surface stains and ensure your whitening treatment is as effective as possible.
- Mind Your Diet: For a few days before your appointment, go easy on the foods and drinks that can stain teeth. We’re talking about coffee, tea, red wine, and berries. Your smile will thank you.
- Oral Hygiene: Keep those pearly whites in top shape by brushing twice a day and daily flossing. Clean teeth make for a better canvas for your whitening treatment.
- Sensitive Souls: If you have sensitive teeth or gums, let us know. We’ve got solutions to keep your journey to whiter teeth comfortable.
- Smoking Break: Take a break from smoking for at least 24 hours before and after your teeth whitening procedure for optimal results.
By following these tips, you can help prepare for your teeth whitening procedure and ensure the best possible results.
Always consult with a dental professional to determine the best treatment plan for your individual needs.
Procedure
The procedure itself involves a comprehensive cleaning to clear the way for the magic whitening gel.
To protect your gums and ensure a comfortable experience, we’ll apply a protective barrier. Then, it’s time for the star of the show – the whitening gel, packed with hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide.
During the procedure, some patients may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity. To make your experience as comfortable as possible, we offer options like numbing agents or advanced whitening lights.
Once the time’s up, your teeth will be rinsed, and the results revealed. For some, a single session is enough, while others might need a few repeats to reach their desired level of brilliance.
Benefits
Teeth whitening isn’t just about appearance; it’s about confidence and health. Benefits include:
- Improved Smile: Your smile will be the star of the show.
- Stain Removal: Say goodbye to those stubborn stains.
- Youthful Glow: A brighter smile can make you look and feel younger.
- Confidence Boost: A confident smile can change your life.
- Oral Health: A clean and bright smile is a healthy one.
Aftercare
Maintaining your new, dazzling smile is essential. Follow these aftercare instructions:
- Daily Routine: Brush twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste.
- Flossing: Don’t forget to floss daily.
- Watch Your Diet: Avoid staining foods and drinks like coffee, tea, and red wine.
- Quit Smoking: Smoking isn’t just bad for your teeth; it’s bad for your health.

Frequently Asked Questions
More Questions? Email us: info@smileperfection.co.za
What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that uses chemicals to remove stains and discoloration from the teeth. This can make teeth look whiter and brighter.
How does teeth whitening work?
Teeth whitening works by using chemicals to break down the stains and discoloration on the teeth. These chemicals can be applied in a variety of ways, including:
- In-office teeth whitening: This is a procedure that is performed by a dentist. The dentist will apply a bleaching agent to the teeth and then use a special light to activate the agent.
- Over-the-counter teeth whitening: This is a procedure that can be done at home. The patient will use a bleaching agent that is applied to the teeth with a tray or brush.
What are the risks of teeth whitening?
The risks of teeth whitening are generally minor and include:
- Sensitivity: Some people may experience sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks after teeth whitening. This sensitivity usually goes away on its own within a few days.
- Gingivitis: Gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease. It can be caused by teeth whitening if the gums are not properly protected.
- Erosion: Erosion is a condition that can cause the enamel of the teeth to wear away. It is more likely to occur with over-the-counter teeth whitening products.
How long do the results of teeth whitening last?
The results of teeth whitening can last for several years. However, the color of the teeth can fade over time due to factors such as smoking, drinking coffee, and eating certain foods.
How much does teeth whitening cost?
The cost of teeth whitening varies depending on the type of procedure and the dentist or clinic that performs it. In-office teeth whitening is typically more expensive than over-the-counter teeth whitening.
What is prohibited after teeth whitening?
After teeth whitening, it is generally recommended to avoid consuming foods and beverages that can stain your teeth for the first 24 to 48 hours.
This includes items such as coffee, tea, red wine, dark-colored sodas, berries, and tobacco products. These substances can potentially interfere with the whitening process or cause new stains on your teeth.
How long should I be careful after teeth whitening?
The duration of post-whitening care may vary depending on the specific whitening procedure you undergo. In general, it is advisable to follow any instructions provided by your dentist or the whitening product manufacturer.
They will typically provide guidance on how long to be careful, which can range from a few hours to a couple of days.
How many visits are needed for teeth whitening?
The number of visits required for teeth whitening depends on the method chosen and the severity of discoloration.
In-office professional whitening treatments often yield noticeable results after a single visit, while at-home whitening kits may require several applications over the course of a few weeks.
It is best to consult with your dentist to determine the most suitable treatment plan for your specific needs.
Will teeth whitening cause tooth sensitivity?
Tooth sensitivity can be a temporary side effect of teeth whitening. The whitening agents used in the process can sometimes cause sensitivity, especially if you already have sensitive teeth.
However, many whitening products now contain ingredients to minimize sensitivity. If sensitivity occurs, it is typically temporary and should subside after the treatment. Using toothpaste designed for sensitive teeth can help alleviate any discomfort.
Can teeth whitening remove all types of stains?
Teeth whitening is effective at removing many common stains caused by food, beverages, and lifestyle factors. However, it may not be as effective for certain types of stains.
Stains caused by certain medications, tooth trauma, or underlying dental issues may require alternative treatments such as veneers or bonding. It’s best to consult with a dentist to determine the best course of action for your specific stains.
Are there any risks or side effects associated with teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is generally considered safe when performed under the guidance of a dental professional or by following product instructions. However, some potential side effects may include tooth sensitivity, gum irritation, or uneven whitening.
These side effects are usually temporary and subside after the treatment. It’s important to follow instructions carefully and consult with a dentist if you experience any concerns.
How long do the results of teeth whitening last?
The longevity of teeth whitening results varies from person to person. The effects can last anywhere from a few months to a couple of years.
Maintaining good oral hygiene practices and avoiding habits that cause staining, such as smoking or consuming staining foods and beverages, can help prolong the results.
Periodic touch-ups or using at-home whitening kits may also be necessary to maintain the desired level of whiteness.

I have had the most wonderful experience with Dr Patrick Maubane. If someone is able to bring out the most beautiful smile of your child back and that being able to boost their self-confidence and self-esteem what more can you ask for. I recommend Dr Maubane to anyone due to his professional ethic, dedication to the profession and commitment. Thank You So Much for your self-lessness. I strongly recommend you for your excellent workmanship.

I wouldn't recommend him to anyone. It's either he doesn't know what he's doing or he's chasing to claim more from medical aid. My daughter went there on Monday to take out a wisdom tooth (it was not painful at the time). He injected her on the gums and sent her for x-ray afterwards. After x-ray results that's when he saw that actually he can't take out that tooth but four of them have be removed from the theater. I mean who starts with injection before x-rays 🤷? You can't start with the last procedure and end with the first one. If he started with what comes first he could have seen that there was no need to inject the poor child. So he just caused my daughter an unnecessary pain cos the tooth was not taken out. He injected her for fun nje. So if you love yourself, don't even try going there. On top of that, when I enquired about this, he was so rude to the core!!!! And unprofessional at the same time. I will book my daughter to someone who knows her/his story,.
