Teeth Whitening in London, Ontario

Sometimes the fastest way to boost your smile—and your confidence—is to brighten it. At Luka Dental Care in London, Ontario, we offer professional teeth whitening treatments that go far beyond what you can get from drugstore kits or whitening toothpaste.

Whether you’re prepping for a big event or simply want to feel more confident every day, our safe, effective whitening options can lift years of stains and help your smile look its brightest.

What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?

Professional teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that uses specially formulated bleaching agents to lighten the shade of your teeth. Unlike over-the-counter options, the products we use are stronger, more precise, and tailored to your needs—so you get noticeable results with less risk of irritation or uneven color.

At Luka Dental Care, we offer both in-office whitening for immediate results and take-home kits for more gradual brightening on your schedule.

What Causes Teeth to Stain?

Tooth discoloration is a natural part of life, and it doesn’t mean your oral hygiene is lacking. Common causes of staining include:

Coffee, tea, and red wine

Smoking or tobacco use

Certain foods like berries, curry, or tomato sauce

Natural aging (enamel thins, showing more yellow dentin)

Medications or previous dental trauma

Our whitening treatments are designed to lift both surface stains and deeper discoloration, revealing a whiter, more youthful-looking smile.

In-Office Whitening vs. Take-Home Kits

At Luka Dental Care in London, ON, we offer two main options for whitening—both safe, supervised, and more effective than anything over the counter.

In-Office Whitening

This treatment is performed right here in our clinic. We apply a high-strength whitening gel and activate it with a special light to speed up the process. In about an hour, you’ll see dramatic results—often several shades lighter.

Perfect if:

You want fast results for a wedding, graduation, or job interview

You’ve never whitened before and want professional guidance

You want a safe way to treat deeper stains

Take-Home Whitening Trays

These custom-made trays fit your teeth perfectly and are used with a prescription-strength gel at home. You’ll wear them for a short period each day, and most patients see results within 1–2 weeks.

Great if:

You prefer to whiten at your own pace

You want more gradual, controlled results

You’re maintaining results after in-office whitening

What to Expect During Your Whitening Appointment

If you choose in-office whitening, the process is quick and comfortable:

01
Consultation

We’ll examine your teeth and gums to make sure whitening is safe for you.

02
Prep & Protection

We apply a protective barrier to your gums and lips.

03
Whitening Gel

A professional-strength gel is placed on your teeth.

04
Activation

A special LED light helps accelerate the whitening process.

05
Multiple Rounds

We repeat the process 2–3 times in a single visit for optimal results.

In about an hour, you’ll leave our London, ON clinic with a noticeably brighter smile—and minimal sensitivity thanks to our desensitizing protocols.

For take-home kits, we’ll walk you through how to use your custom trays and gel. You’ll whiten for 30–60 minutes a day, depending on your treatment plan.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Most adults with healthy teeth and gums can benefit from professional whitening. You’re likely a good candidate if:

You have yellow, brown, or stained teeth

You’ve tried over-the-counter options with limited results

You don’t have untreated cavities or gum disease

You’re not pregnant or breastfeeding

You want to refresh your smile without altering your teeth

We’ll always examine your oral health before beginning treatment to make sure whitening is the best option for you. If it’s not, we’ll suggest alternatives like bonding or veneers to help you reach your goals.

With proper care, your teeth whitening results can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years. Everyone’s habits are different, but you can maintain your brighter smile by:

Brushing twice daily and flossing regularly

Avoiding or limiting staining foods and drinks

Rinsing your mouth after coffee, tea, or red wine

Using a straw when drinking dark beverages

Scheduling touch-ups every 6–12 months as needed

Is Whitening Safe for Your Teeth?

Yes—when performed by a dental professional, whitening is safe for your enamel. We carefully monitor your treatment and use high-quality products designed to protect your teeth and gums. The biggest risks with over-the-counter options are overuse, gum irritation, or uneven results. With us, those risks are minimized.

Bonus Tips for a Whiter Smile Between Visits

Want to stretch your whitening results even further? Try incorporating these habits:

Eat more crunchy fruits and vegetables like apples and celery, which help clean teeth naturally

Use a whitening toothpaste a few times a week (not daily) for safe maintenance

Schedule regular dental cleanings to remove surface stains before they set in

Consider a night guard if you grind your teeth—grinding can cause enamel wear that affects whitening

Your habits matter. Pairing professional whitening with consistent care at home can keep your smile glowing for the long haul.

I tried whitening strips for months and didn’t see much change. After one in-office session at Luka Dental Care, I couldn’t believe how white my teeth looked. And no sensitivity either!

Teeth Whitening FAQs

How white will my teeth get?

Most patients see their smile brighten by 2–8 shades, depending on the type and duration of treatment.

Will whitening make my teeth sensitive?

Some people feel mild sensitivity for a day or two. We use desensitizing agents to reduce discomfort and customize your treatment for safety.

Is whitening safe for enamel?

Yes. When used under professional supervision, whitening gels won’t damage your enamel or gums.

Can I whiten crowns or fillings?

Whitening only works on natural tooth enamel. If you have restorations, we’ll discuss your options for keeping everything looking uniform.

That depends on your habits and the type of whitening used. We’ll give you personalized recommendations, but most people benefit from touch-ups every 6–12 months.

How soon before an event should I whiten?

If you’re doing in-office whitening, one week is ideal. For take-home trays, start at least two weeks before the event.

What if whitening doesn’t work for me?

Some types of discoloration don’t respond well to whitening. In those cases, we’ll talk about other options like bonding or veneers to get the look you want.
