Teeth have a natural white shade that makes people's smile more appealing.
But, as time progresses, this color gets affected by various factors that range
from genetic defects to bad oral hygiene. As a result, a tooth turns into yellow
and looks obnoxious or unhealthy. Even though some such yellowish stains
can be removed by brushing, clinical teeth whitening procedures provide a
significant difference in color to make dentition appear white again. With
these treatments, people can achieve their desired results devoid of any
major side effects.

For most people, the lack of regular brushing might lead to discoloration.
Repeated consumption of food particles when not removed with hygiene
routines develops into sediments that form around the arches. Over time, it
turns into plaque, and eventuality results in cavities. This is a common case
among many individuals since they do not practice proper hygiene routines.
Fluoride is known for strengthening gums and enamel, but excessive
consumption of this mineral is detrimental. Most commonly used dentifrices
and mouthwashes contain fluoride. Dentists also utilize it during clinical
teeth cleaning procedures. But, in certain situations, the overuse of fluoride
can cause discoloration.
2. During a teeth whitening process, dentists will prepare custom mouth trays by
taking digital scans of a patient's dentition. This avoids any issues or
complications throughout a treatment. Once prepared, practitioners will fill those
pieces with bleaching solutions containing abrasive agents. This penetrates the
porous surface of the enamel and clears stains. It will take about thirty to forty
minutes for this process to finish.
Based on the desired results, dentists will apply multiple coatings in a single
setting. They will remove old coatings with a handheld device and reapply a new
one for further improvements. To protect gums and tissues from abrasive
solutions, they may use a composite sheet to cover other areas. This avoids any
issues like inflammation or swelling that occurs when this bleaching reacts with
guns.
Apart from this method, patients also have access to home brightening kits and
mouthwashes. These are available either in the form of mouth trays or bleaching
strips. People should use these kits as per the prescribed time period. Although it
can whiten dentition, these home kits cannot offer a significant change in color
like treatments employed by practitioners. Likewise, individuals can only retain
their enhancement for several months.
