No anaesthetic is used but a mild analgesic (painkiller) is usually given before the procedure as some sensitivity is expected during the procedure. Sensitivity can also persist for a few days after the procedure.
How long does the procedure take?
The entire procedure takes about 90 minutes.
What to expect after the treatment? Is there any aftercare?
No special care is required after getting teeth whitening, some desensitising gel may be needed. The color achieved will be immediate, but might fade after 8-9 months. How fast the whitening fades is due to a variety of factors, including diet and oral hygiene.
You are recommended to maintain the results with a home kit that you need to purchase.

Home teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure that uses a whitening kit to lighten tooth shade and can be performed at home.
How to use home teeth whitening kits?
Your wear time and treatment length will be tailored based on the concentration of the whitening gel. Generally, you will need to wear the trays for about 30 minutes per day, but your dentist or hygienist will provide personalised advice to ensure maximum results. The recommended wear time and length of treatment may vary.
How to keep your teeth bright after teeth whitening?
Staining or discoloration of teeth can be caused by various factors, including aging, dental trauma, and consumption of substances such as coffee, tea, red wine, and certain medications. After your teeth whitening treatment, it's important to avoid tobacco and foods/drinks that can cause staining for several days. Maintaining good oral hygiene by regularly brushing and flossing can also help to remove stain buildup and keep your teeth bright.
Dental veneers are extremely thin, custom-manufactured shells meant to cover the front facing surface of your teeth.
They are generally for aesthetic reasons. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth which allows the dentist to alter the color, length and shape of the tooth when it is seen from the front.
Dental veneers are generally made out of porcelain or from resin. Porcelain veneers are better at resisting stains and can mimic more closely the ability to reflect light that natural teeth have.
Our dentist will guide you through the best choice of veneer material that best suits you.

Our dentist will determine if you are a candidate for veneers, which may involve taking x-rays or making impressions.
The tooth surface will be reshaped to make space for the veneer by removing enamel, which may require anesthesia. An impression of the tooth will be taken and sent to the lab for the veneer to be made, taking 2-4 weeks.
The veneer will be fitted and cemented to your tooth, with adjustments made to your bite as necessary.
Who are the best candidates for veneers?
Veneers are usually used to correct:
- Heavily stained or discolored teeth
- Worn down teeth
- Chipped teeth
- Misaligned teeth
What type of anaesthetic is used?
Local anaesthesia is used during the preparation phase.
How long does the procedure take?
Fitting the veneers usually takes about 45 minutes to over an hour, depending on how many veneers are being placed.
What to expect after the treatment? Is there any aftercare?
At times, some initial sensitivity may be experienced after veneers are placed. Continue to observe good oral hygiene and dental care, including brushing and flossing.
How long can the veneers last on my teeth?
The lifespan of a single veneer can be anywhere between 7 – 15 years. The veneers will generally have to be reviewed and possibly replaced after this.
