Teeth whitening is a simple, minimally invasive and inexpensive technique to lighten your teeth and thus achieve a younger and brighter smile. It is done by applying a hydrogen peroxide gel specially formulated to remove stains or discolorations from natural teeth. The activation of this gel in the clinic with an LED light lamp (cold light) provides greater effectiveness of the product with fewer side effects, typical of other whitening techniques, such as tooth sensitivity. What can I expect from teeth whitening? We will be able to modify the color of your teeth while respecting the tissues (enamel and dentin) and thus obtain whiter and healthier-looking teeth. Limitations of whitening It does not modify the shape of the teeth. It does not affect the previous restorations of the tooth so, if you have crowns or fillings, these will have to be replaced at the end of the treatment. It is not recommended in patients with periodontal disease. The mouth has to be healthy before starting, free of cavities and gum inflammation. Treatment during pregnancy and lactation is not recommended. What if my teeth are stained by tetracyclines? It is a discoloration of the dentin tissue that occurs during the maturation of the tooth tissues. It usually appears in grayish-yellowish bands of greater or lesser intensity. External whitening manages to lighten the tooth and give it greater luminosity, but in very intense staining, horizontal bands often persist. Depending on the degree of staining, the external whitening of the tooth may not be sufficient to meet our expectations. In that case we can also resort to composite or porcelain veneers that cover the surface of the tooth. I only have one dark tooth, what do I do? It frequently occurs from trauma, old root canal, tooth decay, old amalgam fillings, or decay-filtered fillings. The first thing we will do is treat the pathology suffered by the tooth. Afterwards, an internal whitening will be carried out in the clinic with which we will achieve the closest possible tone to the adjacent tooth.
