Reveal a Radiant, Confident Smile with Professional Teeth Whitening at Horizon Dental
A bright, white smile is often associated with health, youth, and confidence. Over time, however, natural ageing, dietary habits, and lifestyle choices can dull the brightness of your teeth—even if you maintain good oral hygiene. At Horizon Dental, we understand the impact a vibrant smile can have on your self-esteem and overall appearance, which is why we offer one of the most advanced teeth whitening technologies available today: the SmartBleach Whitening System with KTP Laser Activation.
This cutting-edge approach offers dramatic, safe, and long-lasting results—all in a single appointment.
Understanding Tooth Discolouration: What Causes Teeth to Darken?
Teeth can become stained or discoloured for a variety of reasons. Understanding the root causes can help you make informed decisions about whitening and maintaining your results:
- Dietary Habits – Beverages like coffee, tea, red wine, and soft drinks, as well as dark-coloured fruits and sauces, can stain the enamel over time.
- Smoking & Tobacco Use – Nicotine and tar can cause significant yellowing and even brown staining.
- Ageing – As you age, the outer layer of enamel naturally wears down, revealing the yellowish dentin underneath.
- Medication-Related Stains – Some antibiotics (such as tetracycline), chemotherapy, and radiation can cause deep intrinsic stains.
- Genetics – Your natural tooth colour and enamel thickness are determined by your genes.
- Poor Oral Hygiene – Inadequate brushing and flossing allow plaque and stains to build up more rapidly.
While professional cleaning can remove surface stains, deeper discolouration often requires a dedicated whitening treatment.
The Power of Your Smile
Horizon Dental is proud to offer SmartBleach Whitening with KTP Laser Activation, an advanced method that delivers exceptional whitening without damaging the enamel or causing sensitivity—common side effects of traditional systems.
How It Works
- A pH-balanced, peroxide-based gel is applied to your teeth.
- The KTP (Potassium-Titanyl-Phosphate) laser activates the gel using a specific wavelength of light.
- This controlled activation ensures deeper, more uniform stain removal.
- Unlike UV or LED systems, the KTP laser is selective and gentle on soft tissues.

A WORD FROM DR.KOZOR
“Laser whitening is the most broadly effective method to whiten teeth. There are many patient-specific situations where other popular systems will have insignificant effects. That is why we have so many patients come to us for this procedure."
