Whitening for more beautiful and brighter teeth

Dr. Carreras, a leader in dentistry and cosmetic dentistry, provides details on teeth whitening below. Dr. Carreras has extensive training in the United States and is currently the director and dentist of the Carreras Dental Clinic.

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dentistry treatment that reduces the original color of teeth by several shades, leaving teeth whiter and brighter.

Teeth whitening can be performed in the dental office or at home, although the best results are obtained in the dental office with LED light teeth whitening treatment.

Tooth whitening sessions required

It is necessary a previous visit in which some measures will be taken by the specialist in dentistry and stomatology, with which some splints are made to be worn when leaving the office to avoid tooth sensitivity. It is also necessary to perform a professional dental cleaning prior to the teeth whitening session.

Generally the whitening session is performed with LED light technology in the office and lasts about an hour and a half.

Care after teeth whitening

After the treatment, it is recommended to drink beverages at room temperature during the first 48 hours. Also avoid the intake of citric and acidic products, as they can cause sensitivity.

The results are visible immediately: at the end of the teeth whitening session in the clinic with LED light, the patient already enjoys the result.

Veneers: the alternative to teeth whitening

The best results of teeth whitening are obtained on teeth that have yellowed over time, or have a natural yellow shade.

However, not all dental stains or darkening can be removed, so in some cases, another type of cosmetic dental treatment such as composite veneers may be required.
