  • Take-home kits available and designed to be easy to use.

  • Effectively eliminates discoloration and stains.
The process

The standard process for tooth whitening with Philips Zoom:

  • Book a check-up: We’ll discuss how bright you want your smile to get and then assess your oral health to see if you’ll be a great candidate for tooth whitening gels and solutions. If all checks out, we’ll take impressions to provide you with custom moulds.
  • It’s time to whiten: If you’re whitening in-office with us, we will place a shield to protect your gums then paint the whitening product on top of your teeth. The final step is to use the Philips Zoom! lamp to active the solution.
  • Protect and maintain: When it’s time to leave, we’ll provide you with a top-up kit, which you can use when your teeth begin to fade. We’ll also clue you in to all the tips and tricks to maintain the whiteness of your smile and fight stains.
At-home kits

For patients preferring to carry out their treatment in private, our whitening kits allow patients to whiten their teeth at home under the professional guidance of our trained and qualified cosmetic dentists.

Your at-home kits include custom-fitting trays that resemble retainers, of which you’ll apply the whitening gel to and wear for a total of 30 minutes daily for 14 days.

We’ll then also likely reinvite you back into the practice to check out the results and make any last adjustments to ensure your smile has lightened perfectly and as planned.

However, please note, even if you want to carry out your treatments at home, you’ll still need to consult with one of our dentists prior to see if you are suitable for this kind of treatment.

Chairside whitening

Philips Zoom! Teeth Whitening is perfect for patients who don’t want to waste time wearing custom trays for two weeks.

Instead, patients can achieve a smile up to six shades whiter in just one hour at the practice, which is ideal for patients who want whiter teeth more quicky.

Plus, you’ll also get the reassurance of being in the safe hands of one our teeth whitening dentists.

Patients will also receive top-up trays to use at home, which will help you maintain your brighter smile for longer. During your appointment, we will explain and show you how to use these.

When whitening your teeth always consult a dental professional as potential side effects could irritate your gums or cause sensitive teeth.

Pay only £62.41pm (0%)

Prices for Philips Zoom Whitening will vary depending if you would like in-office results, or prefer to carry out your treatment at home. Our standard price for the tooth whitening solution is £695, which will cover the cost of your appointments, custom mould, whitening agent and final tweaks.

Tooth whitening advice

What the dentist says

  • It’s recommended by professionals that you do not do Zoom whitening treatments more than once a year.
  • Teeth will be white for approximately six to twelve months, given that you maintain and look at your smile appropriately. 
  • Following the procedure, be aware that your teeth will continue brighten over the next two weeks.
  • Some patients might be concerned that their teeth still appear yellow after the procedure – it doesn’t mean that it didn’t work, results can take up two weeks to appear, or it might be that you need more than one session for total benefits. However, this will all depend on a dentist’s recommendation as deep bleaching might be required if it’s your dentition causing yellowness.
  • Beware of certain foods and follow “the white diet” which asks you to avoid substances like coffee, red wine, dark tea etc. You’ll be required to follow a strict diet 48 hours after whitening.

I chose Mint Dental Clinic after searching for various dental clinics offering sedation and I had an incredible experience thanks to the entire team!! I am terrified of the dentist with a phobia of needles, and I avoid going for check-ups to the point where I developed a huge amount of cavities. After my teeth were analysed by Dr Patel's team, they identified that some of them needed urgent fillings. As sedation is expensive, the team was helpful and patient in helping me figure out the right financial plan to tackle everything before my teeth worsened, including adding extra teeth cleaning for free! I had IV sedation twice for two rounds of fillings across a month, and each time I was put at ease despite coming in the clinic with intense anxiety. I cried as I sat in the chair with the IV in my arm due to my fear of needles. They were kind and patient, and the nurses / sedationists helped calm down my breathing despite the panic. I was terrified of being 'awake' but not being able to communicate or breathe. The team was very reassuring in those fears and I had a lovely experience where I remained conscious but with amnesia, so I had 0 trauma afterwards since you have no memory of anything! The team made me feel heard and supported without being judged. They made sure my chaperone knew everything before bringing me home, and all of my teeth are healthy without any complications post-appointment. I am now ready for routine work without the intense fear of dentistry and feel much more ready to start any dental work WITHOUT sedation in the very near future!

The whole team at Mint, starting from the moment you walk through the door (or call up) are focused on providing excellent care. Great reception team and Orman especially, always goes that extra mile. My dentists (Dr Mehdi and Dr Alves) are very personable, thorough and ensured everything was explained clearly, and only proceeded once I'd understood and was content. Whilst in the chair, both dentists were checking in making sure I was doing ok throughout it all. Then at the end, checked I was happy and offered an open-door to return, for some tweaks if necessary. I am very happy with the results. I always feel completely at ease for my visits, so much so that I look forward to them. Highly recommend! >

I’ve had an outstanding experience at this clinic. Dr. Raj Patel delivers exceptional quality work and somehow makes every treatment feel completely painless. It’s amazing having all types of dental care under one roof, and the whole team really focuses on prevention rather than quick fixes. After completing my treatment, I now have a healthy, confident smile that still looks natural. The hygienists are fantastic, and every member of the team is warm, professional, and genuinely invested in your wellbeing. If you’re looking for shortcuts, this isn’t the place for you—but if you want thorough, honest, high-quality dentistry, I can’t recommend this clinic enough.

I’ve had an excellent experience at this dental practice. My hygienist Peter is absolutely brilliant, thorough and incredibly skilled at what he does. He always takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes each visit comfortable. A big shout-out as well to Arman at reception. He’s always friendly, helpful, and efficient, making the whole process from booking to check-in smooth and stress-free. Overall, a fantastic team and a dentist I truly trust. Highly recommend!

I inquired about Invisalign's earlier this year at this clinic, as I was quite self conscious of my teeth. I had a very insightful conversation with Arman who gave me a thorough explanation regarding the process, treatment, what to expect results wise, and the cost. This then led me to begin my Invisalign journey, and from start to finish it has truly been seamless, immensely effective, and so beneficial. Dr Sharma did an exceptional job throughout, and helped in understanding the developments to expect, how it occurs, and overall making my experience extremely easy and efficient. The service was immaculate from the receptionists, Dr Sharma and his assistant dentist. Also as of recent, I’ve been getting hygiene checkups by Danica and I must say she has been amazing. She explained the anatomy of my teeth and gums in detail, and made me understand much more about dental hygiene and its cruciality. Overall I have no complaints whatsoever, and will 100% refer this clinic to friends and family, as they produce and prioritise high-quality work and service. Extra shout out to Arman as he’s been extremely helpful, and looked after me very well.

I highly recommend this dentist. Dr Patel is an exceptional professional, and my family and I have been attending for many years. Since we moved to the Clinic, even my son, who never liked going to the dentist, now looks forward to his visits. The dental hygienist is also excellent. The reception team provide consistently high service, always polite, welcoming and professional.
