Who Should Not Have Cosmetic Teeth Whitening?
At The Pearly Bright in Blantyre, South Lanarkshire, we love helping people feel confident in their smile. Our cosmetic teeth whitening sessions are safe, legal, and self-administered using trusted Naturawhite system.
But it’s just as important to know that cosmetic teeth whitening is not suitable for everyone. Your safety and oral health come first, which is why we want to be clear about who should avoid buying a session and why.
Gum Disease and Oral Health Concerns
If you are currently suffering from gum disease — you should not undergo cosmetic teeth whitening.
Our Naturawhite BluForsaX gels are designed for healthy teeth and gums.
If you have any signs of gum disease, it’s essential that you see your dentist before attending a whitening session. Your dentist is best placed to give you advice.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
We also recommend that those who are pregnant or breastfeeding do not have their teeth cosmetically whitened.
Although cosmetic whitening gels like our Naturawhite BluForsa-X are UK-compliant and safe for general use, there is not enough long-term research on whitening during pregnancy or breastfeeding. For that reason, we believe it is better to avoid any unnecessary risk during this important time and we will welcome you on the next part of your journey.
Allergies, Conditions, and Sensitivities
If you have any allergies, medical conditions, or concerns that could affect your suitability for cosmetic teeth whitening, please contact us directly.
At The Pearly Bright, we can liaise with the Naturawhite Head Office to get tailored answers for your situation. This ensures we always prioritise your comfort, safety, and peace of mind. Please be aware, the majority of the time we advise you not to purchase a session.
When Cosmetic Teeth Whitening Is Suitable
For those with healthy teeth and gums, cosmetic teeth whitening can be a safe and effective way to brighten your smile. Our self-administered sessions at The Pearly Bright are:
UK compliant and legal
Non-dental and self-applied — you remain in full control
Comfortable — with a low-risk formula designed to minimise sensitivity

Putting Your Safety First
Cosmetic teeth whitening can be a fantastic way to enhance your smile — but it isn’t suitable for everyone. At The Pearly Bright, we’ll always put your health and wellbeing first.
If you’re experiencing gum disease, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have any concerns about allergies or conditions, it’s best to pause and seek the right advice before booking.
