Impeccable Teeth Whitening Services at The Smile Studios

Nothing screams youthful beauty, than a set of pearly white nashers…

And really, most great things in life are against you here. A warm, lazy cup of coffee, a glass of rich full bodied red wine, deliriously tangy sweeties. All dangerously known, to stain and impact your teeth.

Teeth whitening has always been exceptionally popular, but never more than in recent years, as people seek out dental professionals to help with official and professional treatments. Sure, you can find a bargain online, or buy many a hack from Boots, but I decided I wanted to try the real thing and sought out one of the more impactful treatments.

Enter, The Smile Studios. Teeth Whitening services at The Smile Studios start from £299.00 and there are five locations across London (Richmond, Heston Hounslow, Cockfosters, Muswell Hill, and Palmers Green), so you’ll be able to find a spot for you. Best of all, all treatments are led by expert dental professionals, do you know you’ll be getting the absolute best service.

I booked in with the Richmond clinic, which is situated in a really stunning building, flooded with natural light. The dentists and assistants are professional and knowledgeable and guide you calmly through each stage of the process.

We started off with a full hygienist consultation and descale which left my teeth sparkling. The best thing about visiting a dental hygienist before whitening is it gets your teeth to the best possible condition to be receptive to the whitening. I had quite a build up of plaque as I was due a routine clean, which would have impacted my results. The process was quick and painless and took place right before my tray fitting so I didn’t need to go and come back.

Onwards to the dentist, and I visited the lovely Dr. Mani. Not only was Dr. Mani extraordinarily informative, he was so buzzed about the condition of my teeth. He reassured me that due to the status of my teeth, I would really benefit from whitening and the results would be instantly recognisable. It made me super excited and positive before the experience had even started! He had a truly infectious energy. It’s worth noting that I stick to a regular hygienist appointment and have six monthly check ups. Dental hygiene is very important to me. If your teeth aren’t quite there, or have more stains, you may need to undergo further treatment or a lengthier period of teeth whitening. Just a disclaimer before you all get as buzzed as I was!

Teeth whitening treatment itself however, can reverse even the most severe stains. With the world-renowned Phillips Zoom LED Teeth Whitespeed System, which is what I went for so I could conveniently whiten at home, it can give you instantly whiter teeth after just one hour of treatment.

The in-surgery teeth whitening Phillip Zoom LED Teeth Whitespeed system uses whitening gel in combination with an LED light accelerator, brightening your teeth by seven shades in just one hour. Even patients with sensitive teeth are suited to this treatment and it takes just 18 days to get the full desired effect.

Before embarking on this journey, Dr. Mani moulded my gums with a paste to ensure I had a well fitted flexi retainer to put the whitening gel into. It takes a few days for this to return, and up to a week, but as soon as you’ve picked up your trays, you’re good to go.

Now I had Glastonbury in between, which of course not the best place to whiten your teeth, so started when I got back. I would recommend waiting for a slightly quieter period if you can, as you’re required to wear your trays and gels for one hour a night, before bed and after food. If you have a busy social calendar, it can be hard to stick to. When ready, simply brush your teeth and your ready to go. Do make sure you set an alarm, as I accidentally fell asleep once and it did make my teeth very sensitive for a few days afterwards – mainly as I had them in for eight hours, rather than one!

It took me 12 out of 18 days to get my first compliment on the whiteness of my teeth, and I can honestly say the treatment was incredible. I feel cleaner, healthier and more confident, and I am now equipped with my trays for further treatment when needed. You can buy the gels from any registered dentist – please avoid online shops as I’ve been advised that there are a lot of fake products online – for a quick top up and to keep your teeth sparkling.

My experience at The Smile Studios was second to none, and I highly, highly recommend this treatment.
