What is Teeth Whitening (Bleaching)?

Over time, external factors such as tea, coffee, and smoking, as well as internal factors such as age, genetic factors, or medication use, can cause teeth to darken. Teeth whitening (bleaching) is a professional procedure that removes discoloration from the surface of teeth, resulting in a brighter and more aesthetically pleasing smile.

Who Can Get Teeth Whitening?

Anyone with healthy teeth and gums can benefit from teeth whitening. Whitening performed after scaling provides more effective results. However, it is not recommended for pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, or individuals under the age of 16.

How Is Teeth Whitening Performed at Dehadent?

At the Dehadent Oral and Dental Health Clinic, teeth whitening is performed by expert dentists. Using high-quality whitening gels and specialized light systems, teeth are safely lightened to the desired shade without damaging the enamel.

The procedure can be performed using two different methods:

• In-Office Whitening: Provides fast results in a single session. The gel applied to the tooth surface is activated by a special light source.
• At-Home Whitening: This is a method applied with custom trays under the supervision of a dentist and lasts several weeks.

How Long Does Whitening Last?

The effects of teeth whitening vary depending on a person's oral care habits, food and beverage consumption, and smoking habits. The effect lasts an average of 1 to 2 years. This period can be extended with regular care and periodic checkups.

Does Teeth Whitening Harm Teeth?

Bleaching performed under professional supervision and using the right materials does not harm teeth. Some individuals may experience temporary sensitivity after the treatment, but this usually resolves within a few days.
