Many whitening techniques and methods can be used to best suit your situation and needs.
Guidelines
Whitening is indicated to eliminate or reduce dental colourations. There can be different reasons for dental colourations:
Benefits
Dental whitening makes it possible to reduce colourations, to remove the stains, in order to reveal teeth of a lighter shade and even brighter.
Results
Patients often ask “my teeth are yellow, how many shades of white will I gain?” It depends on the patients and the initial shade: yellow or grey. Grey teeth are more difficult to treat than yellow teeth.
Treatment process
The product commonly used is hydrogen peroxide. This product penetrates the teeth and removes the colouring particles from the teeth responsible for the yellow or grey colour.
Two methods can be used to whiten teeth:
What to do before treatment?
The dentist will generally perform a scaling session before the whitening process, in order to clean the teeth and remove the surface stains.
What to do after treatment?
In order to obtain the best results, it is necessary to avoid consuming staining drinks and food throughout the period of dental whitening and up to a week after.
