Teeth Whitening Hoppers Crossing

Teeth whitening methods lighten the natural shade of your teeth without removing any of your tooth enamel.

In most cases, the natural colour of the teeth is within a range of light greyish-yellow shades. Teeth eventually darken naturally, and their appearance can be affected by the build-up of stains acquired from using tobacco products and consuming certain foods or beverages.

Teeth whitening is an effective way of lightening the existing shade of your teeth without removing any of the teeth surfaces. It cannot create a total colour change, but it can substantially lighten the shade of your teeth.

Calculus or tartar can also affect the shade of your teeth. Some people may have discolouration under the surface, which can be caused by certain antibiotics or by tiny cracks in the teeth, into which stains settle. Get your Tooth Whitening Treatment today by experts!

In-office teeth whitening is not a complicated procedure, but it does require skill to avoid injury to the gum area.

However, special equipment is required for preparing and completing the procedure.

The procedure can take from 1 to 2 hours to finish.

The Teeth Whitening Procedure

There are several steps to in-office whitening:

  • Your dentist makes a record of the shade of your teeth.
  • Your teeth are polished with a grainy material to remove any plaque on the surface.
  • Gauze is placed to keep your teeth dry. Retractors may be used to keep your cheeks, lips, and tongue well away from the whitening solution.
  • A barrier is placed along the gum line to protect it from exposure to the solution further.
  • Next, a whitening solution is applied on the front surfaces of the teeth. The solution contains either hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide as the bleaching agent.
  • Many whitening products require a curing light to activate the peroxide. Once applied, the solution is soaked on the teeth for 30 to 60 minutes, or occasionally reapplied, depending on the brand.
  • Once the desired shade is reached, the teeth are rinsed. A fluoride application may be used to calm any tooth sensitivity.
  • Follow-up appointments may be scheduled until the desired shade is achieved.

When done, you are advised to avoid certain foods or drinks that cause stains like coffee, tea, beets, candies, and red wine, for at least 24 hours. Also, avoid tobacco use of any sort.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is teeth whitening permanent?

Teeth whitening isn’t permanent. It can last from a few months up to 3 years – it varies from person to person.

The whitening effect won’t last as long if you smoke or drink red wine, tea, or coffee, which can all stain your teeth.

Does teeth whitening work on restorations?

Teeth whitening doesn’t work on dentures, crowns, fillings, or veneers.
