There are a variety of teeth whitening options available on the market, some of which can be purchased over-the-counter and others that must be used in a dental office. There are 2 types of teeth whitening procedures: at-home bleaching and dental office bleaching.
What is the process of teeth whitening?
Our teeth become stained when colored molecules stick to plaque, tartar, and the surface. Dental cleanings help remove plaque and tartar, but sometimes discoloration remains in the layer beneath, called the dentin. A bleaching solution applied to the teeth breaks up the staining molecules stuck on the teeth when oxygen from the air combines with carbon in the dentin.
How long does it take to whiten teeth?
Our in-office teeth whitening typically takes around 45 minutes to accomplish. The dentist will teach you about the teeth whitening process prior to applying the solution that is whitening. This information program can take 15 minutes or more. All in all, the appointment that is most likely final is about one hour.
At Home, Whitening trays can be used every few months or as often as several times per week until the desired result is obtained. At-home trays provide a more progressive change and are also great for maintaining shade after therapy in-office bleaching.
Results differ according to the degree and type of staining and from person to person.
