Whitening
It is a dental procedure with safe chemical agents that do not destroy the enamel and give a white and bright smile. In our practice it is done with the help of a diode laser. It is usually completed in two appointments a week apart.
At this time, for a more permanent result, chews are used at home with a milder bleaching agent.
What you need to know
To maintain the longevity and the excellent aesthetic result of teeth whitening over time, you need to remember certain rules:
What toothbrush should I use?
Brush with a soft toothbrush and whitening toothpaste at least twice a day. Floss at least once a day, preferably before bedtime.
Which foods should I avoid?
Avoid eating foods with colouring. Try to minimize the use of cigarettes, cigars, red wine, coffee, tea, chamomile, cola, soy sauce, grapefruit juice, cherry, strawberry, blueberry, beetroot, stewed meat, chocolate. Cleaning your teeth daily usually removes the pigments.
What kind of mouthwash do I use?
If the use of a mouthwash is required, use a solution that does not contain chlorhexidine.
In case of sensitivity, what should I do?
If you feel any sensitivity, you can take analgesic tablets (paracetamol), one every 4 or 6 hours and avoid eating cold foods and drinks for the first few days.
Tip
Do not skip semi-annual cleanings in the practice to regularly remove tartar and pigments.
