How Is Teeth Whitening Performed?

At Red Pine Dental, the dentists initiate the whitening procedure after a complete dental checkup. It helps the dentist to understand if the patient has any artificial fixture in their mouth, considering the fact that it cannot be whitened through the procedure. 

The patient is made to relax on the dental chair. Dentists place a dental dam in the mouth, which helps to avoid the contact of whitening gel with other parts of the mouth. A gel layer containing hydrogen peroxide is applied to the teeth and left for 15 minutes. It takes action on the teeth, lightening the stains by several shades. To attain a desired shade of white, the dentist may repeat the application of the gel on the teeth. 

After the procedure, the patient is made to rinse the mouth thoroughly. The results of the procedure reflect immediately on the teeth.  Dentists advise fluoride application on the treated teeth to avoid teeth sensitivity. Some patients collect take-home trays that help them whiten their teeth at home. 

Essential Aftercare for Teeth

Dentists advise the patients to follow instructions that can help them attain whitened teeth. It is essential to avoid food and beverages that contain artificial colors. Damaging habits like smoking should be discontinued if the patient is to maintain the whitened teeth for the longest duration.
