One of the first things people notice about you is your smile, so don’t let stained teeth hold you back. You can undo the damage of wear and tear, coffee, red wine or smoking with a dentist-supervised teeth whitening treatment that’s quick and affordable.

Teeth whitening is a common dental procedure because it’s safe, simple and effective. The end result is a brightened smile which will complement your appearance and boost your confidence.

Phillips ZOOM is the world leader in teeth whitening technology and offers fast results with no downtime. It’s an in-chair, peroxide-based bleaching process that removes stains and brightens teeth. What’s more, there’s an at-home maintenance kit to top up your whiteness whenever you want.
