A brighter smile is one of the most requested treatments at Mea Dent, and one of the most rewarding. Here is what you should know before whitening your teeth.
How it works. Professional whitening uses a carefully controlled whitening agent that breaks down stains inside the enamel. Performed at the clinic by trained professionals, it lightens the natural shade of your teeth safely and evenly.
Professional whitening compared with home kits. Products sold online or in shops are weaker, act slowly and, when misused, can irritate gums or damage enamel. At the clinic we first check that your teeth and gums are healthy, we protect the soft tissues, and we control the strength and timing of the treatment. The result is faster, safer and more even.
What whitening cannot do. Whitening works on natural teeth. Crowns, veneers and fillings do not change color. This is why whitening is always planned together with any other aesthetic treatment, so that everything matches beautifully at the end.
Is it safe? Yes, when performed professionally on healthy teeth. Some patients feel mild temporary sensitivity for a day or two, which passes quickly.
How long does it last? Usually from one to three years, depending on your habits. Coffee, tea, red wine and smoking shorten the result. Good hygiene and regular cleanings extend it.
Before any whitening we always perform a checkup and a professional cleaning, because whitening healthy, clean teeth gives the best and most even result.
