Teeth whitening!

Tooth whitening is a chemical process that can whiten teeth for several shades. Whitening is actually a chemical reaction of outer surface oxidation of the tooth with products based on hydrogen and carbamide peroxide. There are two ways to whiten teeth – dental office and home whitening.

Whitening in a dental office can achieve faster results. Teeth can be whitened with laser or whitening gels. For whitening in a dental office, products of high concentration are used.

Home teeth whitening is perform by yourself, using transparencies that has been made for over the teeth and products of low concentration. Usually transparencies are placed and worn during sleep. The results are achieved more slowly, but are less aggressive for the tooth surface. We must be honest and tell patients that achieved results as well as their duration are highly individual and lasts on average of 8 to 12 months.
