While other teeth whitening products like
toothpastes, gels, strips, rinses, and trays are
available, in-office bleaching is the best way to
whiten teeth for several reasons. For one thing,
the professional products used have stronger
whitening ingredients (i.e., abrasives, hydrogen
peroxide) than over-the-counter products, thus,
the whiter results in just a single session. For
another thing, the dentist can apply safety
measures during the teeth whitening procedure,
thus, making in-office bleaching the choice among
safety-conscious clients.

While all types of whitening products are applied
directly on the teeth, many of these products are
applied with one of several methods in activating
the whitening compound. As such, your doctor will
use either a heat generation device, a special
light tool, and/or a laser for this purpose ask
your doctor about the complementary device to be
used in your teeth whitening case and then do
your homework.

With the combination of the professional teeth
whitening product and the device, dramatic
results can be achieved in a single session
lasting anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes depending
on the yellowness of the teeth. In many cases,
several sessions are necessary but in mild
yellowing, a single session will suffice.

  protective special rubber compound or a rubber

  natural teeth can be whitened crowns, veneers,
  and bridges cannot be bleached.

  by mixing two phases, and then directly applied

  used on the product to facilitate faster teeth
  whitening results.

As a safety precaution, your dentist will check
on each of your teeth and your entire mouth area
to determine that, indeed, you are a suitable
candidate for the teeth whitening procedure. For
example, professional cleaning will be done first
or faulty fillings must be removed beforehand.

Depending on the degree of discolouration (i.e.,
yellowness) of your teeth as well as the type of
procedure performed, the teeth whitening results
can anywhere be from 1 to 14 degrees of
brightening effect. The results will last
anywhere from 1 to 3 years depending in several
factors including good daily dental hygiene
(i.e., daily toothbrush care and avoidance of
stain-causing foods like coffee) and regular
professional care.
