At-home teeth whitening
With our dentist-supervised home teeth whitening kits, you'll receive custom-made trays for your teeth, whitening gel and all the one-to-one care you need to achieve a brighter smile safely and effectively in the comfort of your own home.
Why whiten your teeth?
Few people have naturally bright, white teeth. The colour of your teeth can change with age. Foods and drinks like coffee, red wine, curry, and dark berries can cause stains, as can smoking, certain medications, and a build-up of tartar.
Teeth whitening involves lightening discoloured teeth using professional whitening agents to help reduce staining and improve their appearance. When carried out by a qualified dental professional, the process follows strict safety standards. Our team regularly provides whitening treatments and will discuss whether this option is suitable for you during a consultation. Over-the-counter products are available, but professional whitening is designed to deliver more predictable results under clinical supervision.

What is the process?
- An initial examination – to discuss teeth whitening and find out if it's right for you (occasionally we'll agree it's not suitable, or patients may need additional work before starting treatment)
- Deciding on your shade of white – your clinician will record the shade of your teeth using a colour chart, and discuss the whiteness you would like to achieve
- Creating your custom-made trays – we'll take impressions of your teeth, which will be used to make custom-made trays for the whitening gel
- Final preparations – a second appointment is booked for you to try your trays and collect your whitening gel, and we'll tell you exactly how to get started
- Treatment begins – you will wear the trays in the comfort of your own home for several sessions, until your desired shade is reached

How long will my teeth stay white for?
The effects of at-home teeth whitening are not permanent but can last from a few months to a few years. To prolong the results, you can:
- Avoiding things that are likely to stain your teeth, such as red wine, coffee and smoking
- Brush your teeth twice a day and clean between teeth using dental floss or interdental brushes
- Visiting your hygienist or dental therapist regularly to have your teeth professionally cleaned
- Book regular visits to see your dentist, who will monitor your dental health and provide extra whitening gel if you need it
If you're considering a whiter smile, contact Portman Smile Clinic Bicester today to book a consultation.

I've had a good experience at Portman Smile Clinic. All the staff have been really friendly and helpful. Appointments have always been on time and everything has been explained clearly to me. I'm really pleased with the results, my teeth are now lovely and straight.
Anita Matthews
The lady on reception was super friendly and professional with my son who has special needs. He was due to have his braces taken off. The dental technicians were equally friendly, professional and patient with him. He was very nervous but they were very reassuring. Thank you.
