We offer safe, gentle, and professional teeth whitening at Brookside Dental to help you achieve an even more dazzling smile.
We’re proud to be an Enlighten smiles accredited provider; a world-leading tooth whitening system, and the only system to guarantee its results with some people seeing their teeth become up to 16 shades whiter.
The active ingredient in the Enlighten formula allows the teeth to more easily absorb oxygen, which helps to break down stain molecules by chemical oxidation. Enlighten is a 2 week home kit, where you place a special gel into a custom mouth guard which you wear every day or night for 14 nights, from the comfort of your own home. This is then followed by some power whitening in the dental chair with a higher concentration gel.
The benefits of Enlighten teeth whitening
Following a consultation with your dentist, a mould will be taken to allow construction of bespoke whitening trays which fit your teeth perfectly.
You’ll then wear the trays overnight for 14 nights, followed by a final 40-minute treatment with your dentist.

Enlighten whitening can whiten up to 16 shades. Results vary but if used correctly, all natural teeth will whiten dramatically. However – don’t worry about your teeth becoming too white. Natural teeth cannot become un-naturally white. This only happens when patients have porcelain crowns or veneers which are too bright.
It is completely safe. When carried out by an accredited dentist or hygienist, Enlighten whitening will not do any damage to your teeth at all!
Teeth whitening can be sensitive during the whitening process, however Enlighten has manufactured special products specifically to help tackle sensitivity which are included with all Enlighten whitening treatments. A specially designed tooth serum is provided to brush your teeth whilst you wait for your trays, which helps to prepare your teeth and reduce sensitivity experienced during treatment. You are also provided with easy-to-use desensitising swabs which work instantly to address sensitivity.
Enlighten trays take two weeks to return from the laboratory from having your custom mould taken. Following collection of your Enlighten kit and whitening trays, these must be worn overnight for 14 nights. On the 15th day you return to the practice for a 40-minute in-surgery whitening treatment to complete the process.
Results can last indefinitely with simple maintenance by wearing the trays for one night a month in order to keep the whitening “topped up”. You will also be provided with a special toothpaste which helps to maintain the beautiful results.
