Teeth whitening is a dental treatment that uses whitening gels to reduce the appearance of discolouration and lighten the natural shade of teeth. It is a popular choice for people with staining from food, drinks, tobacco or age-related changes in tooth colour.
At Park Street Dental in Thame, we offer dentist-supervised at-home teeth whitening only. Before starting treatment, a qualified dental professional will assess whether your teeth and gums are suitable for whitening. Your whitening gel and custom trays are provided for use at home, in line with UK regulations, with the aim of achieving a lighter, natural-looking shade that complements your smile.
The typical teeth whitening process at Park Street Dental may include:
Consultation & Assessment
We check your teeth and gums to ensure whitening is suitable and record your starting shade.
Treatment Planning Your dentist explains how your at-home whitening will work, expected results, and any sensitivity so you know what to expect.
Home Whitening Treatment You use the trays with a professional whitening gel at home, either overnight while sleeping or for a few hours during the day, as advised. Results develop gradually over 2–4 weeks.
Review & Results
We review your progress, record your final shade, and discuss future top-ups if needed.
Expert Care from Start to Finish
Your at-home whitening treatment is carefully assessed and supervised by our qualified dental team, ensuring it’s safe, suitable, and delivers the best possible results.
Clinically Approved Whitening Gels
We use professional-grade whitening products that meet strict UK regulations — products that are only available through registered dental professionals.
Personalised to Your Smile
Every smile is different. Your dentist considers the health of your teeth, existing fillings or crowns, and the cause of discolouration to a home whitening plan tailor a whitening plan that’s right for you.
Convenient Local Care in Thame
If you live or work in Thame or nearby, you can enjoy the ease of having your consultations, tray fitting, and reviews all carried out close to home — with whitening completed in the comfort of your own home.

At Park Street Dental, we offer dentist-supervised at-home teeth whitening only. This involves custom-made trays and professional whitening gels, which can be worn overnight or during the day, depending on your preference and your dentist’s advice. During your consultation, we’ll explain how the treatment works and how long your whitening course is likely to take.
At the consultation, the dentist will examine your teeth and gums, record the current shade, and discuss your goals. Any existing dental issues that might affect whitening will be highlighted, and the dentist will explain how the whitening process works, potential sensitivity and the likely range of results.
Many people complete teeth whitening with minimal discomfort, though some experience temporary sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks during or shortly after treatment. Our dentist can suggest ways to help manage sensitivity, such as spacing out applications or using certain toothpastes designed for sensitive teeth.
The degree of whitening achieved varies between individuals. Factors such as your original tooth colour, the type of staining and your lifestyle habits (for example, consumption of tea, coffee, red wine or smoking) all play a role. Over time, teeth can gradually pick up new stains, and some people choose occasional top-up whitening, under dental supervision, to help maintain their preferred shade.
