Whitening process
As we have already indicated, we are talking about a non-invasive treatment that requires professional attention. For this, our team of professional dentists is responsible for:
- Reviewing the patient’s oral health status: A prior oral cleaning is generally recommended to remove possible dental plaque and superficial stains.
- Deciding how many shades we need to reduce the color: Depending on the patient’s needs, we apply the treatment taking into account the health status and shade of the teeth.
- Advising on proper maintenance: To preserve and extend the effects of tooth whitening.
During the procedure, we take care to protect the oral mucosa and gums against irritations. Similarly, we also strive to minimize dental sensitivity and strengthen the enamel to reduce possible future sensitivity.
Does tooth whitening hurt?
The treatment is not painful. However, after having performed the procedure, it is common to experience mild sensitivity at the gum line, but it’s nothing to be alarmed about, as it is perfectly normal and the discomfort does not last long.
The professional in charge, in any case, will take care of advising on post-treatment care.
What results can I expect from tooth whitening?
Depending on the whitening method used, we can see different results, which even reach up to 10 shades whiter. As we have said, everything will depend on the type of tooth whitening, techniques and needs to be treated.
Teeth with strong stains improve significantly with this treatment, managing to attenuate staining imperfections. However, it is important to remember that not all stains or darkening can be removed with this treatment. So everything will depend on the case to be treated.
