Dental problems have increased more and more, however, so have different and more advanced treatment methods. A healthy smile, white teeth and being able to laugh freely is everyone’s dream. Our smile is one of the most important factors affecting our social life. Therefore, we need to protect it. We can do this by paying attention to our teeth, our gums, in other words with oral care. Let’s not forget that tooth loss is a much bigger problem than these small problems, and a lost tooth does not grow back in an adult. Tooth problems can be structural as well as involve the gums, roots or color of the gum. Yellowing usually occurs on the surface of teeth due to excessive consumption of cigarettes, tea and coffee as well as the lack of dental care. Teeth can be whitened if they have yellowed. This whitening process can be done with a practical whitening pen or laser method.
How is the whitening procedure done:
The tooth whitening method with a laser gives teeth a longer lasting whiteness than other pencil applications or color matching dyes. This way you can get healthier results. You can get whitening pens from your dentist or from pharmacies. However, you should not forget that this method does not have permanence and whitens only for a very short process. The most preferred and long-lasting laser method for this purpose is a very simple and practical procedure that can be completed in one session. With this method you can get permanently rid of yellowness and stains on the tooth surfaces. The laser machine used in this method is designed not to damage the gums and the tooth surface. Device heads are changed from person to person and hygiene and sterility are taken into consideration. This process is carried out by directing sensitive beam pulses to the stained parts and the whole tooth surface with X rays. Patients feel no pain during this procedure and anesthetic applications can be performed when necessary.
Considerations after Laser Whitening:
Smoking and alcohol must be interrupted before this procedure. Be careful not to move during the procedure so that the rays do not target the wrong place. Avoid eating and drinking at least two hours after the whitening procedure. Avoid smoking and excess caffeine.
