Teeth Whitening in Sydney CBD
Brighten Your Smile with Safe, Effective Whitening
A brighter smile can make a remarkable difference in how you feel about your appearance. At CDC Dental, Dr. Tony Goswell offers professional teeth whitening solutions tailored to your goals and lifestyle.
With 45 years of experience in cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Goswell understands how to achieve natural-looking results that enhance your smile without looking artificial or overdone.
Understanding Professional Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening uses carefully formulated whitening agents to safely break down stains and discoloration on your tooth enamel. Unlike over-the-counter products that can be unpredictable or damaging when used incorrectly, professional whitening is supervised by Dr. Goswell to ensure optimal results while protecting your teeth and gums. The treatment is safe, effective, and customized to your specific needs and desired outcome.
Many of our Sydney patients are surprised by how much brighter their teeth can become with professional care. Whether your teeth have yellowed over time from coffee, tea, red wine, or natural aging, or you’re dealing with more stubborn staining, Dr. Goswell can recommend the most appropriate whitening approach for your situation. During your consultation, he’ll examine your teeth, discuss your goals, and explain what results you can realistically expect—his honest, conservative approach means you’ll never receive unrealistic promises or be sold treatments you don’t need.

Why Teeth Become Discoloured
Understanding what causes tooth discoloration helps you make informed decisions about treatment and future prevention. Tooth staining generally falls into two categories: extrinsic stains on the tooth surface and intrinsic stains within the tooth structure itself. Surface stains develop from everyday habits like drinking coffee, tea, or red wine, using tobacco products, or eating certain foods. These stains typically respond very well to professional whitening.
Intrinsic discoloration can result from factors like aging (as enamel naturally thins and shows more of the yellow dentine beneath), certain medications taken during tooth development, excessive fluoride exposure, or trauma to teeth. Some intrinsic stains may respond to whitening, while others might benefit from alternative cosmetic solutions like veneers or bonding. Dr. Goswell’s comprehensive assessment will identify what type of discoloration you have and recommend the most effective treatment options. His 45 years of experience means he can accurately predict what whitening can achieve for your unique smile.
Your Whitening Options at Our CBD Practice
Dr. Goswell offers professional whitening solutions designed to fit your schedule and preferences. In-office whitening provides dramatic results in a single appointment—ideal for busy professionals who want immediate improvement before an important event or meeting. This treatment uses a concentrated whitening gel activated under controlled conditions, allowing Dr. Goswell to carefully monitor the process and protect your gums throughout. Many patients see their teeth become several shades brighter in just one visit.
Take-home whitening kits offer the convenience of whitening on your own schedule while still providing professional-grade results. Dr. Goswell creates custom-fitted trays that ensure even application and comfortable wear, along with professional-strength whitening gel. You’ll receive clear instructions on how to use the system safely at home, typically wearing the trays for a specified time each day over one to two weeks. This option gives you control over the pace of whitening and is often more budget-friendly than in-office treatment.
For some patients, combining both approaches achieves the best results—starting with in-office whitening for an immediate boost, then maintaining that brightness with periodic touch-ups using take-home trays. Dr. Goswell will discuss which option best suits your goals, timeline, and budget during your consultation. His focus is always on helping you achieve a naturally bright smile that enhances your confidence without looking unnaturally white or artificial.
What to Expect During Whitening Treatment
Your whitening journey begins with a thorough examination and consultation where Dr. Goswell assesses your oral health, discusses your goals, and determines your current tooth shade. He’ll explain what level of whitening is achievable for your teeth and address any concerns you may have about sensitivity or the process itself. If you choose in-office whitening, Dr. Goswell carefully protects your gums and soft tissues before applying the whitening gel to your teeth. The treatment typically takes about an hour, during which you can relax comfortably in our modern Sydney office.
If you opt for take-home whitening, Dr. Goswell will take impressions to create your custom trays. Once ready, he’ll show you exactly how to apply the gel and wear the trays, ensuring you feel completely confident about the process. You’ll use the trays daily for the recommended duration, gradually seeing your smile brighten over the treatment period. Throughout either option, Dr. Goswell is available to answer questions and address any concerns—this is the personalized attention that comes from choosing a solo practitioner who truly cares about your experience and satisfaction.
Some patients experience temporary tooth sensitivity during whitening, which is normal and typically subsides quickly. Dr. Goswell can recommend desensitizing products or adjust your treatment plan if needed to keep you comfortable. His conservative approach means he’ll never push you to whiten beyond what’s healthy for your teeth or what looks natural for your features.
