At Smiles on Harrogate Road, we partner with the market leaders. Millions of people worldwide agree that Boutique Whitening provides the most effective and comfortable, professional teeth whitening experience available
When you talk or smile, the appearance of your teeth is going to be on display. Discoloured or stained teeth can make you feel embarrassed and lower your self confidence.
Over time, the colour of the teeth naturally darkens. In addition, dietary and lifestyle choices such as drinking red wine, coffee, coloured foods or smoking can also stain and discolour teeth. Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic treatment which involves bleaching of teeth to achieve a lighter shade and to make them whiter.

Excellent experience. The team is professional and friendly. My smile lifted 4 shades from the whitening treatment. I’m so happy with the result!!!

I’ve never had my teeth whitened before and I’m so glad I came here! There was a noticeable difference immediately and it’s such an easy process. The staff were brilliant. Highly recommend booking here!
At Smiles on Harrogate Road, we are partnered with market leaders in whitening products. We provide home whitening kits so you could carry out whitening from the comfort of your home whilst watching TV or whilst you sleep.
At your initial consultation with the dentist, your treatment plan will be devised after carrying out a general full mouth check-up and choosing the right concentration for the desired result. Following this, custom fit whitening trays will be fabricated and 2 weeks later you will be provided with the whitening materials. Over a period of 2 weeks, you can expect a whiter and brighter smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I go to a dentist to get my teeth whitened?
Your dentist has access to the very latest teeth whitening techniques which are improving all the time. Your dentist will also be able to ascertain during your consultation which one of these is best suited to your needs. Not everyone is suitable for certain methods of teeth whitening due to the condition of their tooth enamel. If you buy a teeth whitening kit when your teeth aren’t strong enough, there is a risk you could do your teeth a lot of harm. You wouldn’t try to give yourself a filling so don’t risk trying to whiten your teeth yourself.
What is the difference between 'Day' whitening and 'Night' whitening?
Boutique Whitening by Day is a 6% hydrogen peroxide gel. Hydrogen peroxide is inherently unstable and will break down immediately once you place the whitening trays in your mouth The majority of the peroxide will be spent within the first 20 minutes of wear, but to experience the full effect of the gel, we recommend at least 1 to 1.5 hours of wear time.
Boutique by Night has several different protocols, all designed for a minimum of 4 hours’ wear time, but best results will manifest from keeping the trays in overnight, so you can whiten as you sleep. Wearing for 6 hours or more at night will typically yield better results.
We have a 10% carbamide peroxide gel, or a 16% carbamide peroxide gel – both designed to be worn overnight. These are the equivalent of 3.5% hydrogen peroxide and 5.7% hydrogen peroxide, respectively.
Both gels will give you a fantastic white smile, but the 16% will get you there a little faster. If you suffer from sensitivity, the 10% is a better option for whitening your teeth.
Boutique also manufactures a 4.25% Hybrid Pro teeth whitening gel. This is a blend of 4.25% hydrogen peroxide and 4.25% carbamide peroxide. This gel is designed to be worn overnight and delivers a gentle nudge with the hydrogen to get things started, whilst the carbamide slowly ramps up overnight. This is a powerful formula, delivered gently to ensure excellent whitening, whilst minimising side effects.
What can I do to maintain my white smile after teeth whitening?
Thanks to the wealth of research that exists around teeth whitening products, people no longer have to walk around with stained or yellow teeth. A visit to the dentist, and you can be smiling like a movie star after a short course of teeth whitening, which can be done in the comfort of your own home.
The dentist can help get your teeth beautiful and white, using prescription strength teeth whitening gels. However, there are some habits that you can adopt to ensure your teeth stay whiter for longer.
Are there any risks associated with teeth whitening?
The main side-effect of teeth whitening is sensitivity. Up to 70% of people who have teeth whitening will experience some form of sensitivity, from mild discomfort to severe pain. Some people may also feel some slight irritation of the gums or lips. Both of these effects are temporary and will resolve, given a little time, after stopping or finishing your treatment.
I use whitening toothpaste, isn’t that enough?
Whitening toothpastes undoubtedly help, and will clean your teeth better than ordinary toothpastes. But what many people don’t realise is that tooth enamel is layered, like skin. A toothpaste can only clean the top layer and cannot penetrate any deeper. If the discolouration has taken place over a long period of time, such as with smokers for example, the discolouration will be deep set through several layers of enamel. And no toothpaste is going to remove that.
It’s way more expensive to go to my dentist though. Won’t a home kit do the same job?
In a word… no. Home kits offer a quick fix. But you have no idea if your teeth are suitable for this kind of whitening and the results are short lasting. Repeated use of these kits to keep your teeth white may cause irreparable damage to both teeth and gums. The teeth whitening treatment you receive at your dentists is tailor made for your needs and gives long lasting results. It is a lot cheaper than it was a few years ago since the technology went mainstream. Contact your recommended dentist today and get a full appraisal on your suitability for the latest developments in teeth whitening.
Advice from the NHS; Who can do teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is a form of dentistry and should only be carried out by a dentist or another regulated dental professional, such as a dental hygienist or dental therapist, on the prescription of a dentist.
Some beauty salons offer teeth whitening, but this is illegal if there’s no dental professional present, and it may put your oral health at risk.
You can also buy DIY home teeth whitening kits but these may
also carry risks.
