Laser Teeth Whitening
. People who want to have a beautiful smile can achieve their desires thanks to the treatment methods of dentistry.
Among these treatment methods, teeth whitening is one of the first to come to mind.Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure aimed at brightening stained or discolored teeth, with in-office treatments being the most effective.
What can I expect on my first dental check-up?
Our teeth play a crucial role not only in chewing and speaking but also in stimulating our jawbones and preventing bone loss. Extracting a tooth creates a gap that alters the appearance of your smile. Over time, missing teeth can lead to additional bone loss, potentially affecting your facial structure and leading to other dental issues.
Teeth whitening helps remove stains caused by smoking, foods, and beverages. As we age, teeth can darken due to the thinning of enamel and exposure of the underlying dentin.
Office Type Teeth Whitening
In-office teeth whitening is a professional treatment performed by a dentist. It typically lasts about 45 minutes to an hour and involves applying a concentrated whitening gel to the teeth. This process is often enhanced with the use of special light or laser technology to accelerate the whitening effect.
The results are immediate, with teeth often appearing several shades lighter after just one session. This method is ideal for those seeking quick and effective results, as it provides a noticeable difference in a short amount of time.
Home Type Teeth Whitening
At-home teeth whitening involves using custom-made trays and a lower concentration whitening gel provided by a dentist. Patients wear these trays for a specified period, usually for a few hours a day or overnight, over the course of several days or weeks.
While at-home whitening is less intensive than in-office treatments, it allows for gradual whitening and can be more convenient for those with busy schedules. The results are effective, although they may take longer to achieve compared to office type treatments.
Combined Type Teeth Whitening
Combined whitening treatments utilize both in-office and at-home methods for optimal results. Patients start with an in-office session to achieve an initial level of whitening, followed by at-home treatment to maintain and enhance the results.
