Bright smile

Different factors intervene in the colouring of teeth. They can be of hereditary origin (natural colouring or ageing of the tooth), pathological (taken by tetracycline during the period of training of the tooth) or else attributable to way of life (consumption of coffee, tea, tobacco, wine, antidepressants). These cases which are sometimes productive descaling is good indications for a natural teeth whitening.

In aesthetic dentistry, laundering allows to clarify the colouring of the enamel and of dentine by means of a frost based on peroxide of hydrogen (hydrogen peroxide). No whitening treatment should however be performed without a prior bucco-dental balance sheet, in the course of who your doctor-dentist makes sure of the absence of contraindications (not well-manicured decays, teeth done root canal work, weakness of the enamel, gingival annoyance).

Tooth whitening can be performed “in the chair”, by your dentist, or in a said “ambulant ” way, at home.

The first takes place to the office in one or two sessions from 20 till about 90 minutes. It is possible also to speed up the process of elucidation by means of a lamp with high energy or of a laser. These treatments are completely painless.

The ambulant treatment starts to the office with the ready-to-wear clothes of gutters accomplished from a footprint of dental arch and continues in the domicile with the aid of a frost of peroxide of hydrogen more slightly dosed than that used in office. Your dentist will prescribe you the length of the treatment according to your particular situation. In case of pain or of sensitivity, it is imperative to stop the treatment and to consult your dentist to avoid harming the nerve of the tooth.
