Teeth whitening (Bleaching)

Today, the desire of patients to have whiter and more beautiful teeth has increased the interest in teeth whitening procedures. Individuals with discoloration in their teeth can have teeth whitening in two ways. The first choice is in-office whitening performed in the dentist’s office and is reported as a more effective method. The second choice is the whitening process performed with the help of the whitening agent placed in the appliances specially prepared for the patient in a longer time with home bleaching.

Anyone who does not have any tooth or gum disease that interferes with the process can have teeth whitening treatment, but a dentist must be examined before whitening. Those who have advanced cavities and gum disease in their mouth should have the whitening process applied after they have been treated by their physician. Apart from this, it is not recommended to apply teeth whitening to people who have not completed their growth and development, pregnant women and lactating mothers.
