Teeth Whitening
When provided by a registered dental professional, teeth whitening is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that can help enhance the natural brightness of your smile by removing surface stains and discolouration.
At Portside Dental, we use high-quality whitening agents and advanced techniques to achieve stunning, natural-looking results. And we do this all without damaging your enamel or irritating your gums.
Why Do Teeth Discolour?
Discolouration can occur for many reasons. Our enamel naturally thins as we age, revealing the yellow-toned dentin beneath. Daily habits like drinking coffee, tea, red wine, or richly coloured foods can also stain your teeth over time. Smoking and certain medications may contribute to further yellowing or uneven colouring.
Teeth Whitening Options That Work for Your Life
To make whitening easy and convenient, we offer two effective teeth whitening options:
- In-chair whitening — Our in-chair ZOOM! Teeth whitening is ideal for those who want instant results. This treatment is typically completed in a single visit and can noticeably brighten your smile, with many patients seeing an improvement of several shades in about an hour, depending on individual factors.
- Take-home whitening kits — These custom-made trays let you whiten at your own pace in the comfort of your home. This option is excellent for more gradual results or ongoing touch-ups.
During your consultation, one of our Newport dentists will assess your current tooth shade, listen to your goals and recommend the option that best suits your needs, schedule and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most people experience sensitivity during the whitening process, whether performed at home or in the dental chair. To alleviate some of this discomfort, we recommend using a sensitive toothpaste for two weeks before starting your treatment. While this may help reduce sensitivity, it won’t eliminate it completely.
Any surface staining will prevent the gel from effectively penetrating into the teeth, so it’s necessary to have a professional cleaning done beforehand.
It’s necessary to complete all dental treatment before undergoing whitening as the whitening gel shouldn’t come into contact with any cavities or decay. It will be very uncomfortable for the patient and risks damaging the nerve.
While you may be tempted to buy over-the-counter teeth whitening products, our professional teeth whitening in Newport offers several advantages over DIY methods. The formula dentists use is much more concentrated, which produces better results. Our formula can only be used by a registered dental professional.
