Revitalize Your Smile

Ignite Your Sparkle with Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening, also known as teeth bleaching, is a popular cosmetic dental procedure aimed at brightening and enhancing the appearance of your smile. It is a safe and effective way to remove stains and discoloration from your teeth, resulting in a whiter and more youthful smile.

What is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a process that involves the application of a whitening agent to the teeth to lighten their color. This can be done either in a dental office or at home using whitening products recommended by your dentist. The whitening agents used typically contain hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which help break down the stains and discoloration on the tooth surface.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

The whitening agent used in teeth whitening procedures penetrates the tooth enamel and breaks down the molecular bonds that cause staining. This allows oxygen to enter the enamel and bleach the colored substances, resulting in a whiter appearance. In-office teeth whitening procedures often involve the use of a special light or laser to activate the whitening agent and accelerate the bleaching process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is teeth whitening safe?

Yes, teeth whitening is considered safe when performed by a dental professional or following the instructions provided with over-the-counter whitening products. However, it’s important to consult with Dr. Zemskova before undergoing any teeth whitening treatment to ensure it is suitable for you and to discuss any potential risks or side effects.

Can teeth whitening cause tooth sensitivity?

Temporary tooth sensitivity is a common side effect of teeth whitening. However, it is usually mild and subsides after the treatment is completed. Dr. Zemskova can provide you with desensitizing agents or recommend toothpaste for sensitive teeth to minimize discomfort.

How long does teeth whitening take?

The duration of teeth whitening treatment can vary depending on the method used and the degree of discoloration. In-office teeth whitening procedures typically take around 1 to 2 hours, while at-home whitening kits may require several weeks of regular use for optimal results.

How long do teeth whitening results last?

The longevity of teeth whitening results depends on various factors such as your oral hygiene practices, diet, and lifestyle habits. With proper care, teeth whitening results can last from several months to a few years. Touch-up treatments or the use of whitening toothpaste can help maintain the whiteness of your teeth over time.
