Just as oral and dental health is important, having aesthetically pleasing teeth is equally crucial. In recent years, teeth whitening, a method applied by cosmetic dentists, has become quite popular for achieving an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Teeth whitening helps whiten teeth that have changed color due to various reasons, giving the person a beautiful smile.

Why is teeth whitening necessary?

White teeth are extremely important for people who take good care of their appearance. Discoloration of teeth can affect a person psychologically. With the development of restorative materials in aesthetic dentistry, discoloration can be corrected. Tooth whitening (bleaching) is a relatively easy, effortless, and economical procedure compared to other restorative methods.

Laser Teeth Whitening

Before laser teeth whitening treatment, a specialist dentist determines whether the patient is suitable for the procedure. The first step in the teeth whitening process is cleaning the teeth. Then, a protective shield is applied to prevent damage to the gums and lips. Next, a gel is applied to the teeth, and laser beams are applied at 30-second intervals. The duration of the treatment varies depending on the patient and the device used. The laser teeth whitening procedure is completed by removing the gels and intraoral protective devices.

Who should not undergo laser teeth whitening?

Laser teeth whitening can be performed on all adults. However, there are some situations where this procedure should not be performed. These include:

• It is not recommended for use during pregnancy.

• To persons under the age of 18

• To cancer patients

• For people with serious gum problems

• For those who use photoreactive drugs or substances in a homeopathic manner

Is Teeth Whitening Permanent?

If you frequently consume beverages like coffee, tea, and cola, and if you smoke, you may need to repeat the teeth whitening treatment every 6 months to 1 year if necessary. The more you avoid foods that cause staining, the longer the whiteness of your teeth will last.
