The basics of teeth whitening
Do you know what has caused your teeth to become discoloured?
Identifying the cause is the key to getting your teeth white again and keeping them that way.
Some common causes of teeth discolouration include:
- Ageing
- Smoking
- Eating dark-coloured foods and beverages
- Gum recession
- Tooth decay
- Enamel wear
- Medication
- Genetics
In most cases, tooth discolouration is the result of external stains that build up on the surface of the tooth enamel. These stains can be removed with an abrasive agent such as the paste used in a professional dental cleaning. If these stains stay on your teeth for too long, however, they can seep into the pores in your enamel and become intrinsic stains, discolouring your teeth from within.
This intrinsic stain cannot be removed through brushing or polishing your teeth. Instead, it can only be removed by a powerful dental bleach that penetrates the pores in your enamel.
The same is true of teeth that are yellow due to genetics or ageing; they are turning yellow from the inside and can only be lightened with a potent bleaching agent.
Professional teeth whitening treatments in Golders Green
We offer two professional whitening systems, both prescribed and supervised by our dentists: Boutique and Enlighten.
Boutique Whitening, £375. A dentist-led home whitening system created by a UK dentist. We make trays that fit your teeth exactly, and you choose the routine that suits you: Boutique by Day, worn for around an hour a day, or Boutique by Night, worn while you sleep. Most people see a clear difference in about two weeks, and refill gels make it easy to top up your smile later.
Enlighten, £695. Our premium whitening system for the brightest natural result. You wear custom trays at home every night for two weeks, then come in for a final in-surgery session of about 40 minutes. Enlighten aims for shade B1, the lightest natural tooth shade, and offers a B1 guarantee for suitable patients who complete the treatment as directed.
Teeth whitening at Lotus Dental Clinic
We follow a careful clinical protocol to ensure your comfort and safety during teeth whitening.Here is how professional whitening works at Lotus:
01.
Check your teeth
We first check that your teeth and gums are healthy and suitable for whitening, record your starting shade and recommend the right system for you. We may suggest a hygiene visit first for the best result.
02.
Trays made for you
We take a quick digital scan so your whitening trays fit your teeth exactly, keeping the gel on your teeth and away from your gums.
03.
Whiten at home
With Boutique you wear your trays for around an hour a day or overnight, depending on the gel. With Enlighten you wear them every night for two weeks.
04.
See your new smile
Enlighten finishes with a short in-surgery session. With either system you keep your trays, so a top-up gel can refresh your smile whenever you need.
Not sure which to choose? Boutique is a great value way to brighten your smile, while Enlighten is our premium system for the brightest natural shade. Whitening does not change the colour of crowns, veneers or fillings, so we will talk you through this at your consultation.

Teeth whitening in Golders Green: quick answers
How much does teeth whitening cost at Lotus Clinic in Golders Green?
At Lotus Clinic in Golders Green, Boutique home whitening costs £375 and Enlighten whitening costs £695.
Should I choose Boutique or Enlighten whitening?
Both use trays made to fit your teeth with professional gel. Boutique is a great value home system with day or night options. Enlighten is our premium system: two weeks of home whitening followed by a short in-surgery session, aiming for shade B1, the lightest natural tooth shade. Your dentist will recommend the best option for you.
Is professional teeth whitening safe?
Yes, when it is done properly. In the UK, tooth whitening must be carried out or prescribed by a registered dental professional. Your dentist checks your teeth and gums first and uses gels at strengths that are safe for you. Some people notice short-lived sensitivity, which usually settles quickly.
How long do whitening results last?
Results vary from person to person. Avoiding smoking and limiting tea, coffee and red wine helps your teeth stay whiter for longer, and occasional top-up whitening can refresh your results.
