At first, the dentist will examine your teeth and gums to see if they are healthy enough for whitening. Here, they will also discuss your expectations and the need for any additional dental procedures.  

Initial Examination

A protective barrier is applied to your gums to shield them from the whitening gel. At this stage, the dentist will also clean your teeth to remove any plaque or debris before beginning the treatment.

Teeth Preparation

A specialized, professional-grade whitening gel is applied to your teeth. The gel contains a stronger concentration of hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide that breaks down stains and leaves you with a brighter smile. 

Application of Whitening Agents 

Your dentist might use a special light or laser to boost the whitening process. The exposure to light speeds up the chemical reaction and allows the whitening agents to work more effectively in less time. 

Activation of the Whitening Gel 

At the end, the dentist will rinse your mouth and evaluate the results. In some cases, you might be asked to return for a follow-up session. Otherwise, a fluoride treatment will be applied to soothe your teeth, and you will be good to go.

Teeth whitening may cause temporary sensitivity for some people during or shortly after the treatment. It happens due to the opening of pores in the enamel. However, the sensitivity vanishes after a day or two. If it persists in your case, contact your dentist for a timely intervention.

The dentists suggest refraining from these procedures if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Due to the potential effects of whitening agents, it is recommended to wait period before undergoing teeth whitening treatments.

Pregnancy or Breastfeeding

Teeth whitening is generally not recommended for children under 16. It is due to their teeth being in developmental stages. Exposure to whitening agents at this age can lead to sensitivity and damage.  

Young Children

Your gums and teeth must be healthy for a whitening procedure. People with tooth sensitivity may experience discomfort during or after the whitening treatment. For them, alternative whitening options may be suggested. 

People with Sensitive Teeth

If you have active gum disease, cavities, or other oral health issues, whitening treatments can make your oral condition worse. It is compulsory to address these issues before going for a teeth whitening session.  

People with Active Oral Diseases

For deep, intrinsic tooth stains, such as those caused by medication, injury, or genetics, professional whitening treatments may not be useful. Your dentist will recommend alternative solutions, such as porcelain veneers.
