What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is an aesthetic dental procedure that allows you to lighten the natural color of the teeth without damaging the enamel. This treatment does not completely change the color of the teeth, but it can significantly affect the whiteness of the teeth.
Teeth whitening is an aesthetic dental treatment that brightens the teeth and removes dark spots caused by the consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, cigarettes or natural aging of enamel. The goal of whitening is to achieve a brighter, even shade of the teeth and refresh the appearance of the smile without damaging the tooth structure.
There are different methods of teeth whitening, but the most effective is in-office teeth whitening, which is performed under the supervision of a dentist. In this case, professional preparations are used based on safe concentrations of active substances that penetrate the enamel and break down pigmentation from the inner layers of the tooth.
Unlike home whitening strips and pastes, professional teeth whitening gives faster and longer-lasting results, with minimal risk of gum irritation or hypersensitivity. The treatment itself is painless, takes about 45 to 60 minutes and the results are visible immediately after the first visit.
It is important to note that teeth whitening does not affect crowns, fillings and veneers, but only natural teeth. Before the treatment, an examination is necessary so that the dentist can assess whether the patient is a candidate for the procedure and remove any tartar or plaque that may affect the final result.
If you want a brighter and healthier smile, teeth whitening is a safe and effective solution when done in a dental office.
Why choose IN-OFFICE TEETH WHITENING?
How to prepare teeth for whitening?
Before the treatment, it is necessary to remove tartar with an ultrasound machine and polish the teeth to eliminate pigmentation. Also, if you have cavities, it is important to repair your teeth before you start whitening your teeth.
Is teeth whitening safe?
If done in a dentist’s office or under the supervision of a dentist, teeth whitening and teeth whitening are completely safe treatments. The only possible side effect is mild tooth sensitivity, which usually goes away after a few hours or days. In order for the effect to last as long as possible, it is recommended to avoid colored drinks and follow the advice of the dentist.
As part of professional teeth whitening, the teeth are first cleaned of plaque and polished, and then the gums are protected with a special gel. After that, a preparation based on hydrogen peroxide is applied to the teeth and activated with a special light. The process is repeated 2-3 times in one treatment, and the procedure takes about 60 minutes. (If we use a laser: After preparation, a teeth whitening gel is applied to the teeth, which is then activated by a laser beam of light. This procedure allows for faster and longer teeth whitening).
What to do after teeth whitening?
After teeth whitening, it is important to adhere to a few simple rules in order to keep the result as long as possible and reduce possible sensitivity.
For the first 48 hours, the so-called white diet is recommended. This means avoiding coffee, red wine, tea, carbonated drinks, cigarettes, and strong-colored foods such as beets, blueberries, sauces, and spices. During this period, the teeth are more susceptible to reabsorption of pigments.
Maintain regular oral hygiene. Brush your teeth at least twice a day with a mild toothpaste, use toothpaste for sensitive teeth and dental floss if necessary. If there is a slight sensitivity, it is usually transient and lasts for a day or two.
Regular dental check-ups and professional tartar cleaning further prolong the whitening effect. With proper care and moderation in the consumption of colored drinks, the result can last for several years.
Is it possible to whiten teeth with veneers or crowns?
Teeth whitening works exclusively on the natural tooth enamel. Veneers, crowns, bridges and fillings do not change color during the treatment, as they are made of ceramic or composite materials that do not react to bleaching products.
If you have veneers or crowns, it is important to know that after whitening, natural teeth will become brighter, while existing works will retain their original shade. This can lead to a difference in color.
That is why it is often recommended that teeth whitening be done before placing veneers or crowns, in order to adapt the new prosthetic replacement to the desired, lighter shade of the tooth. In case you already have hair, the dentist will assess whether it is necessary to change them in order to achieve an even smile.
Is it possible to whiten a tooth with an extracted nerve?
Yes, a tooth with an extracted nerve can be whitened, but a special method is used. Such teeth often darken over time because there is a discoloration from the inside of the tooth after endodontic treatment.
In this case, the internal teeth whitening is performed. The dentist places the whitening product inside the tooth and temporarily closes it, so that the color gradually lightens from the inside. The procedure is painless and usually requires one to several check-ups, depending on the degree of discoloration.
Classic in-office whitening works on the outside and can improve the shade, but for teeth without nerves, the internal technique gives much better and more uniform results.
How often can teeth whitening be repeated?
Depending on the method and the needs of the patient, teeth whitening and teeth whitening can be repeated every 6 to 12 months to preserve the achieved effect. Professional teeth whitening is the fastest and safest way to make your smile visibly brighter after just one treatment. Unlike home methods, in-office teeth whitening gives uniform and longer-lasting results, with complete control of the dentist and protection of the gums and enamel. The result is a natural, refreshed smile without damaging your teeth. Contact us by phone and schedule your treatment today.
