Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure designed to lighten the color of the teeth and improve their appearance. It is used to remove stains and discoloration, restoring a whiter, brighter shade. It is a treatment that does not harm the teeth as long as it is performed under the supervision of a professional.
It is one of the most popular treatments in cosmetic dentistry because the results are immediate and side effects are rare.
The most common side effects are temporary tooth sensitivity and gum irritation; to manage these, the use of desensitizing creams, gels, or neutralizing agents is recommended.
What is it?
Teeth whitening can be performed in various ways:
In-Office Teeth Whitening
This procedure is performed by a professional using powerful whitening products based on hydrogen peroxide or carbamide in high concentrations, activated by light. It typically involves one or more sessions, depending on the degree of discoloration, and it is important to understand that not all cases achieve the same results and that many of the images we see of white teeth are enhanced with ceramic or resin dental veneers.
At-Home Teeth Whitening
The professional provides a kit that includes a carbamide peroxide-based whitening gel and custom-made trays or splints into which the gel is applied. This gel is applied at home, following the professional’s instructions.
Combined Whitening
This method combines in-office and at-home whitening; it may take longer to show results, but it is very effective at enhancing the results achieved in the office, combined with the patient’s ability to manage their habits.
