Teeth whitening

Whitening will not change the colour of your teeth completely but will lighten the shade, without removing any of the tooth surface. It is a safe procedure when carried out under professional supervision. Results last indefinitely. Just simply touch up your teeth with whitening gel every few years. Sometimes without a touch up, your teeth will start to re-stain by the same things that caused them to discolour in the first place.

It may be necessary to have other dental treatments prior to whitening, as whitening treatments can only be applied to healthy teeth and gums. A visit to the dental hygienist is also recommended prior to whitening treatment, to give the teeth a thorough cleaning and remove any surface stains. Teeth whitening is not effective on dental restorations such as amalgam fillings, metal or porcelain crowns, etc.

At Envisage Dental Basingstoke we use simple and safe home whitening systems. After checking your dental health, your dentist will take an impression to custom make dental trays that fit snuggly to your teeth. Once your trays are ready, your dentist will give you whitening gel and provide guidance on how to apply this at home, along with the required length of treatment in order to see your personal results. It may take between 3 days and a couple of weeks to see results, depending on your original discolouration and preferred shade.

Temporary sensitivity can affect some patients. If sensitivity is present, wear times should be shortened or made less frequent. Additionally, desensitizing toothpastes, gels, or mouthwashes can be used before or after the whitening process.

I was impressed with reception and was seen on time by Emma. Everything was explained in detail. I then went to see Amanda , the hygenist, who explained the new cleaning method in detail. See was very professional in her way of working. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Excellent dentists.

The staff are always professional and friendly, what thing I do not like to the water Hygiene machine is horrible, I prefer the old way, it may not be affective as the water method, but much more relaxing. Than being water boarded for 20 mins.

Detailed explanation, clear instructions, the whole experience inspired confidence.

5th June 2026

Everyone is so friendly. Everything is explained and checked that you understand. The new air flow was explained really well. My only negative would be having to overhear general gossip at the reception. I would prefer background music and not hear them chatting about what they did the night before.

A practice that I have used since the early seventies so they must be doing something right . A practice that always has a friendly atmosphere. My dentist Emma Ryman has always been a pleasure to visit and her dental skills are second to none My practice hygienist Amanda is also skilled and friendly. They both work in conjunction to make sure my dental health is as good as it can be .

This was my first experience having Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) treatment at Envisage in Basingstoke. The reception members of staff are always friendly and polite. I enjoy having my hygiene appointments with Amanda. She is very professional and knowledgable, explains everything very well and always welcoming. I find this new treatment Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) less invasive as it eliminates the scrape and polish method. My teeth were much more brighter and I didn't experience any discomfort. Thank you

Kartik Datla is extremely kind, thorough and definitely puts your mind at ease. All the staff are warm, friendly and professional. As someone who had a phobia of the dentist before coming here, I would definitely recommend.

Helen is a highly professional dentist with an abundance of interpersonal skills. She always explains things very clearly and gives reasons for her comments. I could not ask for more from my dentist!
