Professional Teeth Whitening in Mitcham & Streatham

A brighter smile can make a real difference to how you feel every day, whether it’s chatting with friends, meeting new people, or simply looking in the mirror.

At Figges Marsh Dental, your friendly dentist in Mitcham and Streatham, we offer safe and professional teeth whitening treatments designed to gently refresh and brighten your smile. Everyone’s goals are different, which is why we’ve created multiple whitening options to suit your needs.

What is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a simple way to lighten the natural shade of your teeth using safe, approved whitening systems. Over time, teeth can pick up stains from tea, coffee, red wine, or smoking, and ageing also affects their colour.

Unlike over-the-counter kits, professional whitening is tailored to your mouth and overseen by a dental professional, ensuring comfort and predictable results. Many patients who regularly visit our hygienist in Streatham find that adding whitening gives their smile the lift they’ve been hoping for.

Our Teeth Whitening Packages

Gold Package – Airflow Tooth Polishing

Ideal for a quick and gentle refresh, our Gold Package uses Airflow Tooth Polishing to remove surface stains caused by everyday habits. This treatment is non-invasive, comfortable, and suitable even for sensitive teeth, making it perfect if you’re preparing for an event or cosmetic treatments like dental implants.

Platinum Package – Boutique® Whitening (£350 for Top & Bottom Jaws)

The Platinum Package features the Boutique® Whitening system. After confirming your suitability, we take impressions or digital scans to create your own custom whitening trays. You then use Boutique’s gentle gel at home, brightening your teeth gradually at a pace that suits you, supported by guidance from our team.

Diamond Package – Premium Enlighten® Whitening (£715 for Top & Bottom Jaws)

For a noticeable, longer-lasting transformation, the Enlighten® Whitening system is ideal.
