What are the Types of Teeth Whitening?
There are 5 types of teeth whitening methods according to the way they are applied, which method is decided by the dentist and the patient and in some cases more than one treatment can be used together.
In-Office Type Teeth Whitening
It is carried out professionally in a clinical setting under the supervision of a doctor. It is the most effective method of all whitening methods. The higher peroxide ratios of the whitening materials used during the operation make whitening faster. Its permanence is longer. Treatment can last 2-3 sessions, the number of sessions varies depending on the color change in the tooth.
At-Home Teeth Whitening
Color determination is made by the doctor and then transparent plaques are designed that adapt to the teeth by taking dental measurements from the patient.In this treatment, whitening agents containing a lower percentage of carbamide peroxide are used.Transparent plaque designed with tubes containing whitening gel is given to the patient and the patient is informed about how to perform the application. According to the recommendations of the doctor, the procedure is applied 2 times a day for 2 weeks or only for a week or two while sleeping at night.Thanks to the weekly check-ups, the course of the treatment is monitored and changes are made when necessary.
Combined Teeth Whitening
In-Office type and At-Home tooth whitening methods are used together. These two methods are tried to achieve a better result by supporting each other. Patients who have been treated with office-type teeth whitening treatment are advised to support the whitening process with home-style teeth whitening after treatment.
Single Tooth Whitening
It is a whitening method that is less likely to create sensitivity in this context, which also repairs tooth enamel while whitening teeth. The whitening gel used in this method provides tissue supplements at the same time thanks to the tooth crystals called ‘nano-hydroxyapatite’. These crystals permanently remove pores, distortions and microcracks on the tooth surface. The only difference for the biological teeth whitening method, which has no difference as an application technique, is the content of the gel used.
