Stained or dull teeth are common and usually harmless, but they can affect how confident you feel about your smile. Coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco leave stains on the enamel over time, while ageing naturally darkens teeth from within. Professional teeth whitening is available through our in-clinic whitening treatment or a customised take-home whitening tray with prescribed whitening gel, allowing you to choose an option that suits your needs and lifestyle.
Even with excellent oral hygiene, teeth get slightly darker as you age. The outer enamel layer thins over the years, letting more of the yellowish dentin underneath show through. On top of that, everyday habits such as drinking coffee, tea or red wine, or using tobacco, add surface stains that accumulate gradually. Teeth whitening can help reverse this natural change.

Teeth whitening reduces discolouration by breaking down stains with a bleaching gel, restoring a lighter, more even shade. Dentists group stains into two categories.
A single tooth that looks noticeably darker than the rest, or staining with a grey or brown tone, is more likely intrinsic and worth flagging to your dentist before choosing a whitening method.
Teeth whitening at dePacific is priced by method and how much of the treatment happens in-clinic versus at home.

An initial consultation, and sometimes a scaling and polishing session, is often recommended before
whitening so the treatment takes effect evenly.
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure, so it is not covered by Medisave or CHAS. dePacific also offers instalment plans for teeth whitening, speak to our clinic team to find out what's available.
Scaling and polishing removes hardened plaque to help prevent decay and gum disease, which can make teeth look slightly shinier. It is not a substitute for whitening and will not lighten discolouration the way a whitening gel does.
Whitening toothpaste and strips can help with mild surface staining, but they are less effective on more noticeable discolouration and tend to give shorter-lasting results than a dentist-prescribed whitening gel.
Tooth sensitivity is the most common side effect and is usually temporary, settling within a few days. Your dentist can recommend a desensitising step or advise on managing sensitivity if it persists. Patients with worn enamel, receding gums, sensitive teeth, untreated cavities or heavily restored teeth should have a dentist assess suitability first.
Results generally last 1 to 3 years, depending on your diet, oral hygiene and habits such as smoking or drinking coffee, tea or red wine. Touch-up sessions can help maintain your results for longer.
This varies by individual and depends on how stained your teeth were to begin with, we can typically go up to 8 shades lighter depending on case-by-case basis.
Avoid strongly pigmented food and drink such as coffee, tea, red wine and curry for the first day or two, and keep up regular brushing, flossing and dental visits. Whitening toothpaste and periodic touch-ups can help extend your results.
