How effective is teeth whitening?
How does it work?
To understand how long your teeth will stay white after whitening, it helps to know how the treatment works. At Dental House Zierikzee we use the latest technology and advanced whitening methods. The treatment uses a bleaching gel containing hydrogen peroxide. This gel penetrates the pores of your teeth and breaks down the molecules that cause discolouration, leaving your teeth whiter and brighter.
How long does it take?
The duration of the whitening treatment varies from person to person, but on average it takes around 60 minutes. You will see results immediately afterwards and will be surprised by the difference in shade. It is worth knowing, however, that some discolouration sits deeper in the tooth and cannot be removed entirely in a single session. In that case, several treatments may be needed to achieve the result you want.
Tips for a lasting white smile
To enjoy your bright white teeth for as long as possible, it helps to adjust a few habits after the whitening treatment. That way you prevent your teeth from discolouring again quickly. Here are some practical tips:
- Brush your teeth at least twice a day with a whitening toothpaste. These contain ingredients that help keep your teeth white.
- Avoid foods and drinks known to cause staining, such as coffee, red wine and strongly coloured sauces.
- Don't smoke — nicotine causes yellow deposits on your teeth.
- Have your teeth checked and cleaned regularly by our dental hygienist. This removes plaque and prevents discolouration caused by bacteria.
