Teeth whitening is an esthetic dental treatment that achieves the reduction of several tones color from the original dental pieces, leaving the teeth whiter and shinier. The whitening of the teeth allows the elimination of most stains produced by tea, coffee, other infusions, cigars, whine, including other substances and foods. Nevertheless, not all stains and dental obscurations are removable or improvable throughout the treatment.
In general, although it depends on the state of the denture of each patient, it’s important and necessary to realize a professional dental cleaning (ultrasounds + profesional brushing) completed before the realization of the teeth whitening and a control of any pathology present, as cavities and defective restorations.
There are several methods for the realization of the teeth whitening. In our clinic we use one that includes two applications in the dental chair and the application of a bucket during nine days at the patient’s home.
