Tooth whitening (bleaching) is a practical procedure applied to remove stains on the tooth surface and lighten tooth color. It is often preferred as a popular procedure. Teeth may lose their natural color over time. One of the most important factors causing this is dental calculus, which develops due to plaque accumulation. Some environmental/physical factors and consumption habits also cause tooth discoloration.
The use of some drugs and antiseptic solutions can also cause temporary or permanent discoloration of the teeth. The cause of some darkening of the teeth over time is not fully understood. Regardless of the reason, the discoloration on the teeth can be removed and the patient gets teeth that shine like pearls. Professional dental whitening is generally divided into two as in-office and home bleaching.
Whitening in the office is carried out by a dentist by means of a whitening substance applied on the teeth. This substance usually consists of hydrogen peroxide and has a gel consistency. The gel is activated with the help of UV rays, thus making rapid whitening possible.
In home teeth whitening, the dentist uses a mouthpiece and whitening gel that is suitable for the patient. The patient’s mouthpiece is filled with gel and wears it for a period of time. Both types of whitening are effective and can last from a few months to several years. When teeth are cleaned regularly and floss is used, the likelihood of tooth stains is reduced. In addition, the consumption of tea, coffee and cigarettes should be limited and if they occur, tartar should be cleaned.
Professional whitening is performed for aesthetic purposes under the supervision of a dentist. The desired tooth image is obtained with a detailed tooth cleaning followed by the whitening/polishing process. Some side effects of teeth whitening procedures can be sensitivity and gum irritation, but this is usually temporary. It is always necessary to consult a dentist before teeth whitening procedures.
Teeth whitening or polishing is also an aesthetic dentistry procedure and is an application considered within the scope of smile design. A desired smile also affects the face and general appearance of the person. Thus, it is possible to say hello to a new life from social life to business life.
