WHAT IS TEETH WHITENING?

Teeth Whitening in Vadodara  is also called as Bleaching. First, teeth surfaces are cleaned with ultrasonic cleaning instrument by our dental expert to make sure that all the teeth surfaces are free from tartar deposite. After cleaning, the gel of beaching agent is applied which gets absorbed by outer layer of the tooth surface. Here, different chemical reactions take place which clean the pores on the outer layer called enamel. Our dental expert will use the amount of bleaching agent as per the condition of teeth.

FACTS AND MYTHS REGARDING THE PROCEDURE:

There is a popular myth that teeth whitening can damage the teeth due to the chemicals used during the procedure. However, the fact is that these chemicals simply penetrate the teeth surfaces to make them clean.

Also, There is a myth that crowns and bridges fixed on natural teeth will also get whitened. This is not possible as they are generally resistant to bleaching materials. Thus Bleaching will only whiten natural teeth.

Well, It is a fact that teeth become sensitive after Bleaching. Especially for 5 to 7 days after undergoing whitening procedure. Some may feel it for a little longer period of time. But this can easily be managed by using desensitizing paste. And looking at the brighter smile, it is worth all of it.

HOME BLEACHING:

There are certain home based teeth whitening options available in the market such as bleaching gels, trays, strips and pastes. These products have remarkable amounts of bleaching agents that basically removes stains from the teeth and make them look whiter and shinier. However, it is always advisable to get it done by professionals to get the superior results as stronger agents are used and a dental expert can customize the concentration of bleaching agent. Further, mouth and gums are protected and a dentist can manage any tooth sensitivity or other issues that may arise from treatment.
