HOW DOES TEETH WHITENING WORK AT SMILE ROOMS?

What Our Patients Say

Daria Nalewajek
I had a really positive experience at the practice. The reception team is extremely professional, welcoming and friendly. Nigel is an excellent dentist. He is very professional, approachable and attentive to detail. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes you feel comfortable throughout the appointment. I really appreciate the care and attention. I would highly recommend Nigel and the whole team for their professionalism, care and welcoming approach.
Helen James
Dear Reading Smiles , I just wanted to say a huge Thank you to Dr Sonam and his lovely assistant Daisy for putting me at ease during my appointment . Dr Sonam is extremely thorough and very patient and talked me through the whole appointment and how healthy my teeth are. Can't recommend him more highly. Thanks again.
Mario Casha
Smile in Reading provided exceptional care and professionalism during my recent tooth extraction. The entire team displayed remarkable compassion and coordination from the moment I arrived until the end of my procedure. Mario, in particular, stood out as an outstanding individual who truly made a difference on a challenging day. They took the time to consider my health conditions, which made me feel genuinely cared for. Every team member, from the reception staff to the final procedure, contributed to delivering seamless and high-quality care. Dr. Johanna’s care was truly exceptional, and I felt completely at ease throughout the process. I highly recommend Smile to anyone seeking top-tier dental care supported by a kind and cohesive team. They truly go above and beyond to ensure patient satisfaction. A big thank you, during a difficult time.

Dr Johana and all of the team were incredible. They are always so welcoming, I highly recommend Reading Smiles
Jordan Hockley
Highly recommend this dental practice! After putting off going to the dentist for over 18 years following a traumatic experience, it was only a matter of time before I had to sit in that chair again! Eventually, it got to the point where eating had become uncomfortable, and despite my fear, I knew I had to do something. I was taken care of by Ajay, who helped me every step of the way, both with my anxiety and throughout the treatment. He was incredibly patient, reassuring and professional, which made the whole experience so much easier than I expected. Although the treatment is quite pricey, they do offer finance options, and in my opinion, the outstanding care and quality of the work made it worthwhile. I will happily be returning for my future treatment. So, to anyone who is scared or anxious about going to the dentist — don't put it off! I spent 18 years avoiding it, and honestly, it wasn't anywhere near as bad as I thought it would be. 😁 Thank you to Ajay and the team!

Pia fordham-weir
I'm getting my Invisalign with Ajay and he's so lovely and making me very comfortable with the experience! All the staff are incredible and so welcoming can't recommend this place enough!
Kieran O'Dea
I was recently treated by Dr Dhillon and Zeyneb, and they were both fantastic. They replaced a broken veneer and repaired several fillings. Dr Dhillon clearly explained all the available options and provided realistic timeframes for the treatment. Throughout the treatment, both Dr Dhillon and Zeyneb explained what was involved and made sure I was comfortable and experienced no discomfort. From my initial appointment through to having my new veneer fitted, they made me feel completely at ease. I would highly recommend Dr Dhillon and Zeyneb to anyone looking for excellent dental care.
Lucas Young
I've only had positive experiences with Reading Smiles. The staff are incredibly friendly. My appointments all happen on time. The facilities are clean. And I recently had a filling which is normally torture, but they made it incredibly painless and and and efficient so I'm glad to be one of their clients and will happily go there for not only routine dental work but I'm looking at getting implants there as well.
Kelsey Thomas
I’m so glad I found Reading Smiles! I was in a lot of pain and the lovely reception team managed to fit me in for a same day emergency appointment. Dr Sham was really kind and took the time to explain everything clearly, so I knew exactly what was going on and what my options were. Everyone made me feel really comfortable. Would definitely recommend!
Amy Clark
Dr Philo is so lovely and welcoming, also always asked if I was ok during treatment (teeth fillings) and also (hygienist appointment) highly recommend seeing Dr Philo at Reading smiles! Will definitely be booking him in for my future treatments.
Alex Marcu
I've had an amazing experience with Reading Smiles 😊. Krupesh was outstanding from the beginning. Very detail oriented and perfectionist. The whole team was polite and helpful. Huge thanks guys 🙏

I’ve dealt with a number of the team here throughout my journey so far, including Dr Sami Chabani for my Invisalign, Dr Sonam Sherpa for an extraction, Dr Francisco Amorim and Dr Philo Menon, and I genuinely cannot speak highly enough of everyone. I’ve never been to a dental practice where I’ve felt so comfortable and at ease. Every dentist, nurse and member of the front-of-house team I’ve met has been absolutely fantastic. Imogen, my treatment coordinator, has been so helpful and lovely throughout, and Mario never fails to put a smile on your face when you come in! I especially want to thank Dr Sonam. He had the rather unpleasant job of doing an extraction that I was really not looking forward to, but he did absolutely everything he could to make the experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. He was so reassuring and personable throughout that it genuinely felt like having a friend there with me, which made such a difference during something I had been dreading. Dr Philo is equally wonderful, incredibly gentle, kind and just such a lovely person. He makes you feel completely at ease and genuinely cared for. Dr Francisco has also been fantastic, and the same goes for every nurse and member of staff I’ve encountered along the way. I’m still at the beginning of my Invisalign journey with Dr Sami but my experience with him so far has been great. He has been clear, reassuring and professional throughout the process, and I’m really looking forward to the upcoming appointments, starting treatment and eventually seeing the results! There really seems to be such a lovely atmosphere amongst the entire team. Dental treatment can be nerve-racking at the best of times, but everyone here has managed to make my experiences genuinely positive. I feel very lucky to have found a practice where I feel so comfortable and well looked after. A massive thank you to the whole team, you’re all amazing!
Becky Bateman
Dr Mo was incredible from start to finish; he is clearly very qualified and highly skilled at composite bonding, which I had on the top teeth. He is very friendly, takes time to provide an individualised service and is meticulous with detail. He took time in the consultation to listen and advise, provided me with the best set of white top teeth and three in a complimentary mouth guard and whitening pack. I am delighted with the results and cannot stop smiling! Thank you so much, I would recommend him to everyone! Photos of before, during and after!
Daniel Paton
I had Invisalign treatment with Dr Krupesh, he was extremely helpful every step of the way to get the desired outcome I wanted. Highly recommend, thank you.
Will Johnston
I had composite bonding done with Dr Yousif and he and the clinic couldn’t have done a better job. The care and attention to detail he showed really put me at ease, adding in the small details that really make the result look natural. I also really appreciate Imogen for coordinating the treatment and answering all my questions :)
Olietta Bellou
I couldn't be happier with my experience at Reading Smiles! From the moment you walk in, the front desk team makes you feel welcome and comfortable. Dr Philo is exceptional—thorough, gentle, and clear in explaining every step of the process. You can tell they genuinely care about patient comfort and delivering high-quality care. If you’re looking for a skilled, compassionate, and reliable dental practice, I highly recommend them!
louie steinborn-busse
I have recently joined the practice and have been seeing Ajay, all of my treatments so far have been seamless and I could not recommend him enough!
Mike Teskey
Commented on the wonderful treatments previously but would like to mention the reception staff. Having been a manager for John Lewis then a major airline for 40 years, I recognised and acknowledge great service. The reception team are amazing with knowledge understanding and patience, they really add to the Reading smiles experience and I hope they are recognised and valued by the organisation. Having transferred my customer from a practice which I have used for 20 years, they make it a joyful transition. Since joining Reading smiles, I have recommended many friends to join me. WELL DONE RECEPTION STAFF 👏
Mike Yandrasits
I recently had two crowns fitted at Reading Smiles by Dr Yousif Alwandi. He clearly explained why the crowns were needed and what to expect during the procedure. The area was thoroughly numbed before tooth preparation, and I felt no discomfort during the work. My permanent crowns feel comfortable and natural, and I’m very pleased with the result. I’ve been a patient at Reading Smiles for three years and find the entire team is friendly, efficient, and consistently provides excellent care.
ANDREW LATTIMORE
5 star and continued excellent service provided by Dr Philo and Dr Sonam and his team. Fully met my expectations. Service was transparent, clear and concise. Professional consultancy performance carried out from checking in at reception, on time, hygiene, dental, advice and future appointment all meeting the requirements. Looking forward to my next dental appointment. Recommend Reading Smiles without hesitation.
Colleen Hughes
After MANY years of not going to the dentist due to a fear of them, then having to undergo chemo for breast cancer, I found myself forced to go to the dentist. Dr Pritesh and his team at Reading smiles made me feel less worried and talked me through all treatment. His knowledge of what was needed in regards to my current treatment made me feel confident in his judgement. I can only thank him and his team for their patience.
Giovanna Russo
I had an excellent experience at Reading Smiles. From the moment I walked in, everyone at reception was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and professional. They made me feel comfortable straight away. A special thank you to Dr. Philo Menon. He was absolutely fantastic—kind, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly. His professionalism and caring approach made me feel completely at ease throughout my appointment. The overall service was outstanding, and you can really tell the whole team genuinely cares about their patients. I highly recommend Reading Smiles to anyone looking for high-quality dental care. Thank you all for such a great experience!
Emma Biddle
10/10 I couldn’t recommend Reading Smiles enough! Dr Dhillon has been absolutely brilliant and is, without a doubt, the best dentist I’ve ever had. He’s completely transformed my teeth, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Everyone at Reading Smiles is genuinely so friendly and welcoming. They always make you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. Thank you for such amazing care!
Sumita Ganguly
Dr. Menon Philo - The most amazing dentist ever I went in today as my tooth filling had come off and it was causing me a great deal of pain and sensitivity. Dr Philo saw me and he is one of the most amazing dentists and human beings I have ever met. He gave me a full hour for a 10 min emergency appointment at no extra charge. He extensively went through the reason why I was in pain, did the scans, and put a new filling in place. The relief and the satisfaction was beyond measure and all I can say is THANK YOU and may you be the most successful dentist ever! His gentle manner and the way he checked on me to ensure I felt safe and comfortable is beyond measure!

Frequently asked questions teeth whitening

What are the different options for whitening?

There are 3 types of whitening offered at Smile Rooms Glasgow, depending on the desired outcome these can be done individually or combined.

LASER: This is carried out in our whitening suite and involves applying a whitening gel to the teeth and exposing them to a UV laser light for short periods of time. The dentist will show you the instant results against a shade chart before and after your treatment.

HOME WHITENING: This involves the dentist taking moulds of your teeth using dental putty to create trays similar to gum shields. At home, depending on the type of treatment and desired outcome you wear these overnight or for 1-2 hours a day for the specified treatment duration.

DIAMOND POLISH: This is great especially on heavily stained teeth. It is a combination of air, sodium bicarbonate and a jet of water used to gently polish away built up stains and plaque for immediate results in a single session.

If you have white spots on your teeth, then our Icon White Spot Removal Treatment would be the best solution, as teeth whitening options do not change the colour of white spots. Read more here

How does whitening work?

THE GEL: The active ingredient in the whitening gel is Hydrogen Peroxide, as this is broken down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, lightening coloured substances without affecting the structure of the tooth.

THE LASER: The laser light activates the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface of the tooth. A study has shown the UV lamp increases the effectiveness of the gel by 26% or more, giving an average improvement of 8 shades.

How long does whitening last?

We provide sound and simple aftercare so this really depends on how well you care for your teeth afterwards. If you avoid frequently exposing your teeth to red wine, tea, coffee or cigarettes and have a good oral health routine your teeth should remain whiter.

To help with this, home treatment should include enough product to allow for occasional top ups which will really help in maintaining that brilliant smile.

How much whiter will my teeth look?

This depends on the type of whitening system used and varies from person to person.Those with heavily stained yellow teeth tend to have more dramatic results than those with quite white teeth.

Your dentist at Smile Rooms Glasgow will be able to advise you on the likely results following a consultation.

Are there side effects?

Some people experience no sensitivity with their teeth, however the majority of people will experience some kind of sensitivy during and after the initial treatment.

This should settle down after around 48 hours and it is advised that you avoid very hot or cold food and drinks during this period.

Am I suitable for teeth whitening?

Generally the answer is yes, however we perform an initial exam to check the surface of your teeth is suitable for whitening.

It is important that if you have existing dental work it’s important we show you which parts will lighten with whitening. Porcelain crowns and white fillings respond well to whitening, however metal fillings and non-porcelain crowns will not lighten.
