Teeth Whitening/ bleaching as the name suggests is the procedure to whiten or lighten the shade of ones teeth.
It is done with the use of special chemical agents as well as a special whitening light that may or may not be required.
It is done by 3 techniques:
In-office: Done at the clinic. Usually gives better and longer lasting results.
At home: Where customized trays and special chemical agents are provided by us to the patients for a thorough at home regime which the patient is expected to follow religiously for best results.
We sometimes use a combination of both where in office whitening is followed by at home regimen for the best possible results.
Teeth whitening procedure does not give permanent results and may require repeat cycles after a few months to years.
