Why choose teeth whitening?
Teeth whiteness is often associated with oral health and good personal care. There are several reasons why someone might want to consider teeth whitening:
- Erase stains caused by coffee, tea, red wine and coloring foods.
- Reduce discolouration due to tobacco.
- Have a more youthful and bright smile.
- Preparing for special events like weddings or important meetings.
The different methods of teeth whitening
Teeth whitening at the dentist
Professional whitening performed by a dentist is the most effective and long-lasting option to achieve spectacular results. The treatment usually uses a gel containing hydrogen peroxide applied directly to the enamel.
Additional measures such as the use of UV lamps to speed up the process amplify the effects of the freeze. Key steps include:
At-home whitening kits
Many people prefer at-home whitening kits because of their convenience and low cost. These kits contain gels that are less concentrated than those used by professionals but can still offer excellent results with regular use. They often include:
- Whitening gels based on hydrogen peroxide or carbamide.
- Customizable or ready-to-use aligners.
- Activating sprays or light sources to speed up the process.
Maintenance and sustainability of results
Oral hygiene
To preserve the results of teeth whitening, it is crucial to practice good oral hygiene, such as:
- Brushing regularly with fluoride toothpaste.
- Daily flossing to remove plaque between teeth.
- Setting up regular visits to the dentist for professional cleanings.
Diet and habits
Avoiding foods and beverages known to have the potential to stain teeth will also contribute to the longevity of the results. It is recommended to limit:
- Coffee and black tea.
- Dark sauces such as soy sauce.
- Coloured soft drinks.
- Smoking, which has a noticeable effect on the staining of the teeth.
