Want a bright and white smile? It's time to whiten your teeth. However, there are many options for teeth whitening, so it is important to find out about each one individually, as well as the offices that provide this service. Read below why you should not perform this treatment on your own, what the teeth whitening process looks like at a professional dentist and when is the right time to do it.
Why should you not whiten your teeth at home?
Today, numerous home teeth whitening products are available at your fingertips, and they promise fast, easy and cheap results. However, these treatments often lead to unwanted consequences. By using poor quality products combined with unprofessional application, you can destroy the enamel, irritate the gums or get uneven results. All this leads to an inevitable visit to the dentist, which will cost you more than if you had gone to the right address immediately.
What does the in-office teeth whitening procedure look like?
Professional teeth whitening in a dental office is the only safe and effective way to achieve the desired smile. The first step is an examination, where the dentist assesses the health of your teeth and gums, and then adjusts the procedure to the desired goals according to your current condition. After you have determined which method is best and embark on the procedure. The dentist will protect your gums and soft tissues to avoid irritation. Only then is the application of a special whitening agent on the surface of the teeth. Light or laser activation is then used to enhance the whitening effect. Depending on the initial shade and your expectations, one procedure is enough for some, while others repeat several more sessions.
When is it time to whiten your teeth?
The color of teeth changes with age. This is due to long-term use of dark drinks, such as coffee and wine or cigarettes. There is no exact time limit for this treatment, as it is entirely up to you. However, you should know that some patients had contraindications and for this very reason it is important to find a reliable dentist.
