What is tooth whitening?

Teeth whitening is a very effective way of lightening the natural color of your teeth without removing any of the tooth surface or damaging it. Usually the original shade of the tooth is whitened to a lighter color (2_4 shades), rather than being turned completely white.

The ‘active ingredient’ in the whitening product is usually hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. As the active ingredient is broken down, oxygen gets into the enamel and dentine of the teeth and the tooth color is made lighter.

What are procedures and type?  

The most common type of whitening is called ‘chair-side whitening’ often called ‘laser whitening’ You will be told if you are suitable for the treatment, and your dentist will supervise it. First the dentist, hygienist or therapist will put a rubber shield or a gel on your gums to protect them. Then the whitening Gel is painted onto your teeth and then a laser light is shone onto the gel to speed up the whitening reaction. This is also called ‘power whitening’

Another option is dentist-supervised ‘Home whitening’. You will have trays made specially to fit into your mouth like gum-shields. The whitening gel is then put in the trays and you will be given a routine to follow at Home.

Are you right candidate for whitening?

There are a number of reasons why you might get your teeth whitened. Everyone is different; Just like we all have different hair and skin color, people also have different tooth color. Some people naturally have a more grey shade of teeth. Other people have white spots on their teeth. As we get older our teeth get darker. This is partly due to our getting older, but it is also caused by the foods we eat and drink, and by other habits such as smoking. Tea, coffee, blackcurrant juice, red wine and other foods that have strong colors can have an effect on the overall color of our teeth. Teeth may also darken as a result of some antibiotics.
