Professional teeth whitening with a lamp

What is professional lamp whitening?

Professional teeth whitening with a lamp is a frequently sought and preferred aesthetic procedure by many people in modern dentistry. All people with enamel discoloration can benefit from it. Such effects are commonly observed with the consumption of chocolate, red wine, tobacco smoking and all kinds of foods that lead to disturbances in the color of tooth enamel.

HOW DOES PROFESSIONAL IN-OFFICE WHITENING WORK?

For professional in-office teeth whitening with a lamp, you should definitely trust a specialist from a dental center. The procedure itself lasts about 1 hour and proceeds in several stages:

Lamp whitening begins with professional cleaning of the oral cavity from all accumulated plaque.
The lips and cheeks are separated to be protected from the action of the aggressive whitening gel.
Here the enamel is evenly dried, covered with active gel and irradiated with an LED lamp. The gel is then removed and if the patient doesn’t like the degree of whitening, the procedure is repeated.

HOW LONG DOES THE RESULT LAST?

Depending on whether and how much you smoke, how much coffee and red wine you consume, the result can last from one to several years.

HOW TO KEEP MY TEETH WHITE?

Maintaining white teeth is more important than the whitening itself. Professional whitening is not recommended more than once a year. During the rest of the time, you must protect your teeth from staining foods and drinks, clean your teeth carefully, use whitening toothpastes and mouthwashes, and regularly visit your dentist for preventive checkups.
