Teeth Whitening
If you don’t have much time for a dental veneer treatment in Turkey (although it lasts only five
days) or want to make a slight color change on your smile and see how it looks, you might
consider teeth whitening.
As you age, your teeth can be stained and discolored due to various causes. Factors such as
genetics, eating habits, some medications can cause stains on your teeth. Smoking is
another factor that causes discoloration, so smokers mostly need teeth whitening
treatments. On the other hand, there are many dental solutions you can use for whitening
your natural teeth. Over-the-counter products, professional at-home teeth whitening kits, LED
teeth whitening, and laser teeth whitening are among the available solutions.
In professional in-office bleaching, there are two critical things: quality of the material and
use of technology. Our dental clinic in Istanbul uses imported gel from the USA, called
Opalescence, and put the gel in reaction with the latest cutting-edge plasma light
technology to get the best possible result. Even though it is not a complicated procedure, it
must be applied by a skilled dentist to avoid injury around the gum area
What is Bleaching (Teeth whitening)?
Bleaching, which is also called teeth-whitening, is a treatment that produces the
whitening effect and improves the brightness of teeth by using peroxide. This
treatment is the least damaging and most conservative technique for whitening the
natural teeth.
How Long Do the Effects of Bleaching Last?
As a fact, for all teeth whitening methods, the results are not permanent. Due to the
factors mentioned above, the teeth get stained and discolored in time. The length of
this period changes depending on how you take care of your teeth. Whether you get
in-office-bleaching treatment or use professional at-home teeth whitening kits, you
should brush, floss, and rinse your teeth daily. Bleaching effects may diminish due to
lifestyle habits such as smoking, consuming food, and beverages that cause stains.
In general, the whitening effect lasts around 1 year if you take care of your teeth
properly.
