Office Type Teeth Whitening

In this teeth whitening process performed in a clinical setting and under the control of a dentist, all soft tissues are isolated with the help of a barrier that hardens under light. After applying a whitening gel with hydrogen peroxide as the active ingredient on the teeth, activation is performed with light. This process is usually completed in 2 sessions, one week apart.

Since the application time is short, it is ideal for patients who have trouble with time. This process is also called laser type teeth whitening.

Home Type Teeth Whitening

In this treatment method, the dentist takes an impression of the patient's teeth and sends it to the laboratory. A special plaque is prepared for the patient, which fits perfectly on the teeth in the laboratory environment.

Before going to bed, the patient places the whitening gel in this plaque and attaches it to his teeth. This method is applied for approximately 1-2 weeks and whitening occurs during sleep.

Single Teeth Whitening

This method is applied to teeth that have undergone root canal treatment. In this method, the filling on the tooth is removed, tooth whitening gel is applied to the gap in the tooth, and a temporary filling is applied again.

This process can be repeated at 3 days intervals until the teeth reach the desired whiteness. If the canal filling is properly sealed, this method will not have any side effects.
