Teeth Whitening
Is a fulfilling and sought-after dental procedure aimed to improve smile contrast with the other aesthetic facial features. It has been practiced as far back as ancient Egyptians times, as a means to influence social interactions by communicating health, beauty, and affluence. At first glance, it may seem to be a rather aggressive procedure, utilizing powerful oxygen-releasing substances – hydrogen peroxide. Many patients express concerns about it and are worried due to rumors that it can be painful.
"In my over 20 years of experience in using multiple bleaching systems (Laser, Blue Light, Trays, Strips…) both in the USA and Germany, I can tell you with certainty that professional teeth whitening is not dangerous if done properly. On the contrary, it has a strengthening effect on the teeth when done as a whitening/remineralization protocol." Dr.-medic stom., D.D.S. (USA) Costin Marinescu
Bleaching provides a distinctively brighter smile but also the emotional impact is immense and the social benefits are considerable. At the same time, when conducted as part of a remineralization protocol, the teeth gain a newly-infused high-quality mineral layer, making them stronger against the corrosive properties of acidic foods and drinks.
