One of the most important components of a perfect smile is the colour of your teeth. Teeth whitening, also known as “bleaching”, is a non-invasive procedure by means of which teeth are cleaned of deposits from their surface until their initial shade is obtained. In childhood, at the time of tooth eruption, our teeth are very white, but over time, due to the deposits of chromatophore radicals (coloured substances), the shade of the teeth changes from a bright white colour to a yellow or even brownish one. The whitening treatment does nothing else but clean these substances, by removing them chemically, restoring our smile to its original shade. By whitening, a colour lighter by more than 10 tones can be obtained, without endangering the integrity of your teeth.

When do teeth become coloured?

⦁    Teeth turn yellow and/or stained with aging
⦁    By accumulation of tartar and dental plaque in the absence of regular dental prophylaxis
⦁    By smoking, intense consumption of black tea, coffee, cola or red wine and food rich in pigments
⦁    In tetracycline treatment administered in childhood or by excessive fluoride intake
⦁    In traumas of the teeth, which result in the blackening of those teeth. Choosing a system of teeth whitening depends on the desired result, on the financial possibilities and also on how fast you want to get a result. A dentist’s recommendation is always necessary before using a teeth whitening system, because even the whitening systems from stores and pharmacies can determine the irritation of gums and temporary sensitisation of teeth. Regardless of the whitening system you wish to use, it is required that before applying it, you do a professional brushing and scaling. The teeth whitening systems are effective on natural teeth.

There are mainly two main ways to whiten the teeth: the whitening systems in dental practice and whitening systems for home. Both types of treatments are recommended only by the dentist and require prior consultation. In addition to these systems, your dentist may also recommend products for the maintenance of professional whitening effects.
The professional whitening system, achieved in the practice uses a whitening gel (based on hydrogen peroxide) and a photopolymerisation lamp. This system is safe, efficient and very rapid. Within 60 minutes, your teeth will be a few tones whiter. The whitening system in the practice is ideal for those patients who want immediate results! Shades by 10 tones lighter can be obtained.
The whitening systems for home are just as efficient, only that the effect is obtained gradually by successive applications. Generally, the active substance used is the same as in the case of teeth whitening in the practice. In this case, the whitening procedure is done by applying the bleaching substance in a mouthguard made in the practice.

The whitening procedure in the practice

⦁    The dentist carries out a professional teeth brushing and scaling.
⦁    A dental print is taken and the mouthguard is made if the whitening system provides for this.
⦁    A special substance is applied on the gums for protective purposes, also depending on the system chosen.
⦁    Active substance is applied and is left between 15-45 minutes, depending on the system.
⦁    A special lamp is used, if the whitening system provides for this.
⦁    Several successive applications at every 15 minutes may be required sometimes.
⦁    The whitening system in the practice is ideal for those patients who want immediate results!
