Since teeth whitening requires professional knowledge and skill, it is performed by the dentist using chemical mixtures with high concentrations. It is applied in 1 hour sessions in total (a few procedures of 15-20 minutes). Sometimes one session is enough.
The number of sessions may vary depending on the patient’s tooth color, the intensity of the tooth color and the structure of the tooth.
Yellow and brownish tooth discolorations become faster and more effective, and grayish tooth discolorations turn white in a longer and more challenging process. The dentist will decide on the ideal method. After the procedure, tooth sensitivity can be seen, which usually lasts for a few days.
In order to obtain a good whitening, the clinic type must be done first and then supported by the home type. Home type alone can be preferred for removing mild tooth yellowness or whitening sensitive teeth.
