Teeth Whitening

What is Laser Teeth Whitening Method?

The biggest advantage of laser teeth whitening is that it can be done in a very short time. After all soft tissues are isolated with the barrier, the bleaching process is performed in a short time of about 4 minutes. This method is applied in a controlled manner in the clinic under the direct supervision of a dentist. After all soft tissues are isolated with a light-curing barrier, the whitening gel is applied to the teeth and activated by light. The process can be repeated until the desired whiteness is achieved. In this way, two sessions are done one week apart. The dentist takes measurements from the teeth and this measurement is sent to the laboratory. From the measurement taken, a thin transparent plaque is prepared for the patient, which fits snugly over the teeth. Before going to bed at night, a tooth whitening agent is applied into this plaque and the plaque is attached to the teeth. One grain of rice is activated for each tooth. The whitening process takes place at night while you sleep. The course of treatment lasts one to two weeks.

• Sensitivity experienced after teeth whitening usually goes away within 24-48 hours.
• In order not to experience sensitivity in this process, the patient has some responsibilities:
• Consumption of acidic beverages should be avoided, especially in the first 48 hours.
• The patient should not consume foods and liquids that will affect the dental plaque. The person should not consume very cold or hot foods during this process.
• Some applications may cause extra sensitivity in the teeth. Toothpick and dental floss should not be used within 24-48 hours in order to prevent sensitivity.

If the instructions are followed, the sensitivity usually decreases within the first 24-48 hours and disappears on its own. If the patient continues to experience sensitivity after this process, he or she should consult the dentist. The discoloration of the teeth appears not only in the permanent teeth, but also in the milk teeth. It is usually the discoloration of the anterior teeth that causes anxiety for patients. Patients want to whiten their teeth in order to create an aesthetic appearance. There can be many reasons for the discoloration of the teeth. The most common causes; poor oral hygiene, iron medications and long-term antibiotic use.

The person's eating and drinking habits and tobacco use also affect the color of the teeth. Teeth can change color depending on genetics and age. Do not hesitate to prevent your teeth from losing their functionality day by day for fear of not being able to find affordable dental treatment.

Are There Any Situations In Which Teeth Whitening Should Not Be Done?

It should not be applied to patients under the age of 18, pregnant women, patients with severe sensitivity in their teeth or discomfort in their gums.

In addition, teeth whitening treatment should not be applied to patients who have previously undergone whitening treatment and have related side effects. Teeth cleaning does not harm the teeth in any way, on the contrary, it prolongs the life of the teeth. The accumulation we call tartar -it is formed by the combination of calcium in saliva and plaque in the area where it is not brushed-can not be removed by the patient, and the tartar grows over time, causing recession in the gums and tissue loss in the teeth. As a result, the tooth has to be pulled out—not because it rots—just because it wobbles. Teeth cleaning prolongs the life of teeth. It does not thin the teeth and does not harm them. People usually try to whiten their teeth with substances such as baking soda, lemon or apple cider vinegar, as far as they see it on television or the internet. However, such substances do not contribute to whitening teeth. In addition, it causes permanent damage to the tooth layers. Therefore, it should never be used. The dentist should be consulted for teeth whitening applications. For teeth whitening, the patient must be over the age of 18.After bleaching, it is necessary to stay away from tea, coffee, cigarettes, cola, red wine, acidic beverages and colored foods for approximately 2 days, ie 48 hours (ideally 7-10 days), because the effect of whitening continues in the dentin tubules. During this time, colorful foods and drinks should be avoided. Sensitivity experienced after teeth whitening usually goes away within 24-48 hours.
