Bleaching

To undergo teeth whitening, your teeth should be healthy. The procedure works only on natural tooth structure—fillings, crowns, or bridges cannot be whitened.

To ensure an even result, it is therefore important to carefully assess your initial condition. A professional dental cleaning is often recommended beforehand to remove plaque and optimally prepare the teeth.

The duration of the results varies from person to person. In many cases, the whitening effect remains visible for an extended period of time—sometimes for several months or even years.

Your daily habits play a key role. Consuming foods or beverages that stain your teeth can affect the results. If necessary, the treatment can be repeated at a later date.

In general, teeth whitening can be performed both at the dentist’s office and at home. With so-called in-office whitening, the treatment is performed right at the office and usually delivers quick results.

For at-home whitening, custom-fitted trays are made, which you use on your own with a special gel. We’ll discuss which method is best for you during a personal consultation.

Temporary sensitivity may occur in some cases, especially with sensitive teeth. This usually subsides after a short time.

We take your individual dental situation into account and tailor the treatment accordingly to minimize any potential irritation as much as possible.

First, your dental condition will be carefully assessed to determine whether teeth whitening is appropriate and which method is right for you. A professional teeth cleaning is often performed beforehand to ensure your teeth are optimally prepared.

Next, the whitening gel is applied to the surfaces of your teeth. Depending on the procedure, this is done directly at the office or at home using custom-made trays. At the office, the process can also be activated with light.

After the treatment, we’ll discuss the results together and give you tips on how to maintain your whiter smile for as long as possible.
