A dental assessment is required before any whitening treatment. This ensures: - Your teeth and gums are healthy enough for whitening - Expectations are realistic based on your tooth type and the cause of discolouration - Existing dental work (crowns, veneers, composite fillings) is identified — whitening **does not change** the colour of these restorations Some patients experience temporary sensitivity for 24–48 hours after in-chair treatment — this is normal and resolves quickly. Take-home whitening can be adjusted to minimise sensitivity. --- ## Whitening for Special Events Many of our Southbank patients book whitening ahead of weddings, job interviews, formal events, or travel. With our 8:00 am weekday opening time, a Zoom! session fits easily into a pre-work or lunch-break schedule. For upcoming events, we recommend: - In-chair whitening **at least 2 weeks before** the event (allows any sensitivity to resolve) - Taking a top-up kit for last-minute finishing touches --- ## Our Southbank Whitening Team Our clinicians are all AHPRA-registered and ADA members: - **Dr Jacalyn Madden** (BSc Biomed, DMD, University of Sydney) — trained in cosmetic dentistry, Invisalign, and CEREC - **Dr Shakiba Askary** (BHS, MDent, La Trobe) — speaks English and Farsi - **Dr Joanne Ong** (BHlthSciDent/MDent, La Trobe) — speaks English, Mandarin Chinese, and Cantonese - **Dr Sally Joseph** (BHSc Dent, MDent La Trobe — High Distinction) — preventive and cosmetic focus - **Dr Anchal Verma** (BDS, University of Adelaide) — Clinical Lecturer, University of Melbourne For comprehensive cosmetic treatment planning — including veneers, crowns, or smile makeovers beyond whitening — complex cases can be referred to the **Collins Street Specialist Centre (CSSC)** through the Smile Solutions Group. --- ## Frequently Asked Questions **How much does teeth whitening cost at Core Dental Southbank?** In-chair Zoom! whitening starts from .

All pricing is confirmed in writing before treatment begins. **How long does Zoom! in-chair whitening take?** The full treatment takes approximately 90 minutes, including setup and three 15-minute whitening cycles. Most patients see results of up to 8 shades lighter immediately after treatment. **Does whitening work on crowns, veneers, or fillings?** No — professional whitening only works on natural tooth enamel. Existing crowns, veneers, and white composite fillings will not change colour with whitening. If you have these restorations, your dentist will discuss how whitening may affect the overall appearance of your smile and whether any replacements might be needed. **How long do teeth whitening results last?** Results typically last 6–12 months depending on diet, lifestyle, and oral hygiene habits. Coffee, red wine, tea, and smoking accelerate restaining. Take-home top-up kits (from per box of gel) can extend your results significantly. **Will teeth whitening cause sensitivity?** Some patients experience mild, temporary sensitivity for 24–48 hours after in-chair Zoom! treatment — this is normal and resolves without treatment. For patients with existing sensitivity, take-home whitening with lower-concentration gel may be a more comfortable option. Your dentist will advise at the assessment. **Can I get whitening done before work at Southbank?** Yes — Core Dental Southbank opens at 8:00 am Monday–Friday.
