Tooth whitening
THE most popular treatment
Tooth whitening allows you to whiten your teeth in a healthy and extremely powerful way, while limiting sensitivities thanks to the latest generation of products we use.
Tooth whitening at CHD
The hygienist will systematically carry out a thorough check of your mouth to ensure that there are no problems or contraindications to tooth whitening.
Note: tooth whitening can only be carried out on teeth that are clean, free of tartar and discolouration. Teeth cleaning must therefore have been carried out within the preceding 2 months.

Bleaching in the clinic
We use the Zoom! system from Philips, the leader in professional tooth whitening, in our clinics. This treatment, the most effective and popular with patients, uses advanced LED technology for optimal results while minimising tooth sensitivity.
The process includes:
- Check-up, quick polish and 90-minute chairside whitening session.
- Application of a specific product to remineralise teeth and prevent sensitivity after treatment.
Note: For long-lasting results (2 to 3 years depending on the case), a complementary home treatment is recommended.
Bleaching at home
We use Philips Zoom! Day White and Night White systems, the only at-home whitening systems with ACP (amorphous calcium phosphate). They offer intense whitening, protect the enamel, reduce sensitivity and increase the brightness of the teeth.
The treatment consists of two appointments:
- Check for cavities and impressions taken for custom-made aligners.
- Trial of the trays, advice on how to use them and delivery of the whitening kit.
Note: Home bleaching is possible on its own, but for long-lasting results it must be followed by chair-side bleaching.
Fair & transparent prices
We strive to maintain unbeatable value for money: reasonable prices, which have not changed since 2016, for quality of care that has earned us numerous awards:
Advice
Tooth whitening would not be complete without recommendations from the Hygienist. The hygienist systematically concludes the whitening session with advice on diet and oral hygiene, to ensure that the results are intense and long-lasting.
For patients who have undergone in-clinic whitening, we recommend continuing at home in order to obtain the best possible result and maintain it over time. At-home whitening can be carried out without having previously undergone in-clinic whitening.

What are the benefits of teeth whitening?
The main advantage of teeth whitening, when done under the guidance of a dentist or hygienist, is that it restores the brightness and whiteness of your teeth without damaging the enamel, the second layer of the tooth (called “dentin”), or the patient’s gums.
What are the risks of teeth whitening?
Tooth whitening presents minimal risks as long as it is performed by a dentist or a professional hygienist. If not done by a professional, teeth whitening can cause hypersensitivity, weakened teeth, or even premature wear. Gums and mucous membranes may also be damaged (burned) and weakened.
How long do teeth whitening results last?
The duration of teeth whitening results varies depending on the patient: the technique used, as well as dietary and oral hygiene habits. Smokers and heavy coffee or tea drinkers typically experience less lasting results.
After a complete whitening treatment, carried out in two stages—an initial session in the clinic followed by at-home whitening using custom-fit trays—the results can last between 1 and 2 years.
How to maintain white teeth after whitening?
By adopting impeccable dental hygiene. Once your teeth have been whitened, you should strictly follow the advice of your dentist and hygienist to prolong the results as much as possible.
Additionally, it is recommended to avoid substances and foods that can stain your teeth, such as wine, tobacco, tea, coffee, and spices, for 2 to 3 weeks following the treatment.
