What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that lightens the original color of the teeth by several shades, making them whiter and brighter.
White teeth make you look younger, since our teeth tend to darken as we age; they also look cleaner and healthier.
It removes most stains caused by external factors, such as coffee, herbal teas, tea, tobacco, and wine, among other substances and foods.
Not all stains or discoloration can be improved with teeth whitening.
In these cases, other treatments may be necessary, such as dental veneers—whether composite veneers or ceramic veneers.
It is important to note that this treatment has no effect on dental veneers (composite or ceramic), amalgam (metal), inlays, crowns, or bridges. In these cases, we have replaced fillings, crowns, etc., to improve their color and match them to the rest of the teeth following teeth whitening.

Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments
Teeth whitening is a procedure that uses chemicals (peroxides) to make teeth whiter. It is a safe procedure that delivers excellent results.
Before beginning, it is recommended that the dentist explain all the steps and what we can achieve with this procedure.
No matter which option you choose, your teeth will be brighter and more attractive than ever.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
This is a treatment performed under the supervision of a dentist that uses high-concentration peroxides and therefore requires special monitoring.
In fact, it’s important to protect your gums, as well as your lips and cheeks.
Whitening ice is usually activated by light to enhance its effectiveness.
It has the advantage that we achieve very good results in a single session. The session lasts approximately 60 minutes.
At-Home Teeth Whitening
This whitening procedure uses a lower concentration of peroxide and therefore does not require the protective measures mentioned in the previous section. Yes, it is true that it still needs to be supervised by a dentist.
Typically, custom mouth trays are made for the patient, and the whitening gel is provided so the patient can apply it to the tray and use it at home.
The duration of this treatment varies depending on the type of ice used and the patient’s original tooth color, but it generally lasts between two and three weeks.
Advanced Teeth Whitening
It is a combination of the two previous ones.
It begins with a whiteningtreatment at the clinic, which enhances the effectiveness of the subsequent at-home treatment.

At our dental clinic, we use the most advanced teeth -whitening treatment on the market: Philips Zoom is based on the use of LED light.
It has been shown to be more effective than traditional methods, and it is even safer because it does not require the use of local anesthesia or pain relievers like other options.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Internal bleaching is a type of treatment used on teeth that have undergone root canal therapy—that is, teeth with a dead nerve—since these teeth tend to darken in color.
These teeth-whitening procedures must be supervised by a dentist, as they may have side effects.
Tooth sensitivity is a very important issue. If you experience this, see your dentist.
It also includes some recommendations, such as avoiding substances that could stain your teeth during this period.
