Boutique teeth whitening gives you a brighter, more confident smile, on a schedule that actually fits your life, not the other way around.

Choose the professional Boutique whitening system that suits your lifestyle, and start noticing the improvement in your smile in as little as 3 to 4 weeks. If you’re in Durham and looking for Boutique teeth whitening near you, book an appointment at Church Street Dental Practice in Houghton-le-Spring today, so we can help you decide if this is the treatment that best suits your needs.

What is Boutique teeth whitening?

Boutique is a professional teeth whitening system designed to be used in the comfort of your home. This dentist-supervised treatment uses Boutique whitening gel in varied concentrations for daytime or nighttime use. Unlike Enlighten whitening, which requires overnight use for 2 weeks and then for 1 hour during the 3rd week, Boutique lets you choose the schedule that’s most convenient for you to whiten your teeth. We’ll give you custom-made trays to help with precise application, so the formula stays in contact only with your teeth to minimise the risk of you having irritated gums.

How does Boutique teeth whitening work?

We’ll start your Boutique whitening experience with a comprehensive dental check-up that allows us to check if your teeth and gums are healthy, so we can be sure that you’re suitable for the procedure. During this appointment, we’ll carry out any necessary treatments to get your teeth ready for the treatment. This is also the time when we’ll take impressions that we’ll use to create your custom-made whitening trays, which are manufactured by Boutique technicians in a dedicated laboratory.

While waiting for the trays, we recommend that you start brushing your teeth with the Boutique toothpaste for 2 weeks. This will help minimise sensitivity while you whiten your teeth and help protect you from discomfort. Once the trays are finished, you can come into our clinic in Tyne & Wear to get the trays and usage instructions, and you can start your journey to a brighter smile using Boutique teeth whitening.

These are the 2 Boutique dental whitening systems you can choose from:

Boutique Whitening by Day

This option uses a whitening gel with 6% hydrogen peroxide for day use. It’s a great choice if you want to spend only a minimum amount of time on teeth whitening with Boutique and don’t want it to disrupt your normal daytime activities. This system offers the convenience of short-term use without compromising on effective whitening. The higher concentration formula intensively whitens your teeth in short sessions during the day, and we recommend using it for 1 to 1.5 hours daily.

Boutique Whitening by Night

If nighttime is your preferred schedule for teeth whitening, Boutique has whitening gels designed for overnight use. These gels have a 10% or 16% concentration of carbamide peroxide, which is equivalent to 3.5% and 5.7% hydrogen peroxide. The lower concentration of active ingredients makes this option ideal for longer treatment times. It allows you to have your teeth professionally whitened while you sleep through the night. We recommend leaving the trays with the whitening gel for at least 4 hours overnight, with 6 hours or more generally delivering better results.

Boutique whitening instructions: how to use the trays and gels

  1. Brush your teeth and floss thoroughly before using the Boutique teeth whitening system. Make sure your teeth are completely dry, too.
  2. Apply a small amount of whitening gel to the dots inside the trays. Don’t put too much gel because if it overflows, it can irritate your gums.
  3. Carefully insert the trays over your teeth and check if they fit snugly.
  4. Gently press the dots to ensure that the gel is evenly distributed on the surface of the teeth.
  5. Remove any excess gel that might have come out of the trays, so it doesn’t stay on your gums.

How long does Boutique teeth whitening take?

Typically, you’ll see noticeable improvement within 7 to 10 days. With Boutique dental whitening, before-and-after changes also depend on the current shade of your teeth and your compliance with the system. We can give you a closer approximation of the timeline during your assessment, but you’ll generally see the full results after 3 to 4 weeks of treatment.

How much does Boutique dental whitening cost?

If you’re interested in the cost of Boutique teeth whitening near you, the treatment starts at £350 at Church Street Dental Practice in Houghton-le-Spring. This cost takes into consideration our clinic’s location and the expertise of our team of dental professionals.

FAQs about Boutique Whitening

 

Is Boutique dental whitening safe?

Yes, it’s generally safe when done under the supervision of a registered dentist who can assess your eligibility for the treatment and recommend the Boutique whitening system that’s most suitable for your needs. The whitening gels used in Boutique whitening systems have different concentrations that need professional monitoring and administration, so you can enjoy safe and effective teeth whitening.

 

Can I have Boutique teeth whitening if I have sensitive teeth?

Yes, we recommend Boutique Whitening by Night using the 10% carbamide peroxide gel that’s designed for overnight use. The lower concentration formula is gentler on the teeth, making it better suited if you have tooth sensitivity issues.

 

Is Boutique teeth whitening painful?

Generally, it doesn’t hurt, although most patients experience mild sensitivity during and immediately after the treatment. The slight discomfort is typically temporary, and we recommend brushing your teeth with the Boutique toothpaste 2 weeks prior to treatment to help reduce sensitivity and fortify the enamel.

 

Do I need a dental check-up before getting Boutique whitening?

Yes, you’ll need a check-up so we can assess if you’re eligible for the treatment. We’ll check if there are dental problems or gum disease that we need to treat before proceeding with tooth whitening using the Boutique system.
