What is Teeth Whitening?

This blog will inform you about teeth whitening. Personal appearance is very significant nowadays. One of the most crucial parameters of an aesthetic smile is the whiteness of the teeth. Teeth can become discolored over time for various reasons. For this reason, dentists apply teeth whitening methods in their routine dentistry practices.

What is the Content of Teeth Whitening Materials?

Although the mechanism of teeth whitening is not fully understood, it is an oxidation reaction. The specialists have been using peroxides in dental practice for many years. Peroxides, usually in the form of hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, are the active ingredient in most teeth whitening agents.

What Needs Attention After Teeth Whitening?

The first 48 hours after the bleaching treatment is vital in terms of activating the whitening and getting maximum results. Mindful to avoid substances that can cause discoloration during this time. These are coffee, tea, tobacco products, mustard, ketchup, soy sauce, cola, red wine, red sauces, and cosmetics that can cause discoloration, such as lipstick.

Some of the foods recommended to be consumed after whitening treatment are as follows: Milk, water, soda, banana, peeled apple, white bread, oatmeal, plain yogurt, cheese, white rice, and white meat products.

After a successful whitening treatment, it would be well to avoid the habit of consuming coloring food. Besides, take care of daily oral care, and visit your dentist regularly to protect your radiant smile.

Is Sensitivity Felt After Teeth Whitening Treatment?

Postoperative sensitivity can be seen after a teeth whitening treatment.

It is normal to have a bit of postoperative sensitivity after a teeth whitening treatment. In case of sensitivity or pain, the painkiller recommended by your doctor can make the process comfortable. In addition, Dentodream highly recommends you brush your teeth with a desensitizing toothpaste such as Crest Sensitivity, Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief, or Sensodyne.

Which One Is More Effective? 

Office Teeth Whitening Kit vs Home Teeth Whitening Kit

Although home bleaching is the most commonly used bleaching method, some patients prefer office bleaching methods, which can get faster results in a short time, instead of these methods that take a few weeks.

In controlled clinical studies, no differences were found between the two techniques in terms of whitening, postoperative sensitivity, and patient satisfaction. It has been reported that users obtained the best results with the combined treatment method supported by home bleaching after office bleaching.

Who Can Get Teeth Whitening Done?

Teeth whitening methods can be done to almost anyone and generally provide satisfactory results. It attains positive outcomes for individuals who have colouration problems due to dietary habits such as tea and coffee colouration. However, individuals who smoke and consume coffee and tea frequently need to change their routines during the whitening process.

In Which Cases Teeth Whitening Treatment Cannot Be Done?

Whitening is not recommended for patients with chronic sensitivity, periodontal disease, oral cancer, and teeth with excessively worn and damaged enamel. Bleaching procedures may cause negative results in patients with enamel defects. 

Before any whitening procedure is considered, all dental caries should be treated and gingival health should be checked.
