Teeth whitening

A brighter smile, done gently and honestly.

A whiter smile can feel like a small, lovely gift to yourself, and professional whitening is one of the gentlest ways to get there. My only promise is honesty: we will tell you what whitening can do for your teeth, and what it can't.

What it is

Professional whitening uses a dental-grade gel to lift stains that have built up inside and on your natural enamel over the years, from coffee, tea, smoking, and time. It can be done in the clinic in a single visit, or with custom trays you wear at home, and sometimes both together. It only lightens natural teeth, so it does not change the colour of crowns, veneers, or fillings.

Signs it might be for you

  • Your natural teeth have yellowed or dulled over the years and you'd like them brighter
  • Stains from coffee, tea, or smoking that brushing alone no longer removes
  • You want a refresh before a wedding, graduation, or special occasion
  • You have healthy teeth and gums with no untreated decay or gum problems
  • You understand results vary from person to person and want an honest, no-pressure plan

How it works at Bite

  1. 1
    A friendly consultation first

    We start by looking at your teeth and listening to what you're hoping for. We check that your teeth and gums are healthy, find the real cause of the colour, and make sure whitening is right for you before anything begins.

  2. 2
    A gentle clean

    Often a simple cleaning to remove surface stains and plaque already brightens your smile, and it lets the whitening work evenly. Sometimes this step alone gives you most of what you wanted.

  3. 3
    The whitening itself

    We protect your gums, then apply the professional gel, either in the clinic or with custom trays made for your mouth to use at home. We choose the approach that suits your teeth and your sensitivity, never a one-size-fits-all setting.

  4. 4
    Seeing your result together

    We compare before and after honestly. Teeth keep settling for a few days, so we look at the true shade once things calm down, and talk about whether you'd like to go further.

Recovery & aftercare

There is no real downtime; you can go straight back to your day. Some people feel mild, short-lived sensitivity to cold for a day or two, which usually settles on its own. For the first couple of days it helps to go easy on deeply staining things like coffee, tea, and smoking, and to keep up gentle brushing so your brighter smile lasts longer.

Why Bite

With Dr. Jegr, the goal is always a healthy smile first and a beautiful one as the happy result, never shaving down or covering up teeth that are perfectly fine. You'll get an honest opinion, a gentle hand, and the freedom to say no if whitening isn't truly worth it for you. We'd rather keep your trust than sell you a shade.

Frequently asked questions

Done professionally on healthy teeth, whitening is considered safe and does not strip away enamel. We protect your gums, control the strength of the gel, and watch how your teeth respond, which is exactly why doing it under a dentist's care is safer than guessing with strong shop-bought kits.
