Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic procedure that uses bleaching agents to lighten the color of natural teeth and remove stains. The primary active ingredients are typically hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which break down stain molecules in the enamel and dentin
Methods of Teeth Whitening
This is the fastest and most effective method, performed by a dentist in a single or a few visits (e.g., Zoom whitening or laser whitening). The dentist applies a high-concentration peroxide gel (15% to 43%) and often uses a special light or heat to accelerate the process. This method provides immediate, dramatic results, often several shades lighter.
Important Considerations
Before starting any whitening treatment, it is essential to have an oral examination to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy enough. Whitening is not suitable for individuals with gum disease, cavities, or exposed tooth roots.
