Whitening Teeth

Teeth whitening are an effective method of lightening/whitening the shade of your teeth without removing any of the tooth surfaces. There are three different ways that helps you to whitening your teeth:

1. Power whitening: This is a light assisted bleaching procedure where certain whitening agent with its main component as hydrogen peroxide is used. It is considered to be the most advance and effective way of whitening. It takes two hours for the entire procedure.

2. Office bleach: This is a procedure where the whitening agent and repeats it a number of times to brighten and whiten teeth.

3. Home bleaching: This is one of the most widely used modes of whitening and the results are good. The one problem with it is that you have to apply on to your tooth by the means of special bleaching tray for around seven 10 days. The concentration of the bleaching agent in this is much lower compared to the power and office whitening.

ALL the above mentioned procedures are safe and effective but the whitening depends on individual shade and the teeth, and varies from person to person.
