Bleaching
Teeth bleaching is a cosmetic dental procedure used to whiten and brighten the teeth by removing stains and discoloration. It typically involves the use of peroxide-based bleaching agents that penetrate the enamel to lighten the tooth’s color. This treatment can be performed professionally by a dentist or at home using custom trays or over-the-counter products. Teeth bleaching is popular for its ability to enhance a smile’s appearance, providing a whiter, more youthful look.
Why Choose Bleaching?
Here are four reasons to choose bleaching:
A whiter smile can increase self-esteem and confidence in social and professional settings, making you feel more comfortable and attractive.
Teeth bleaching can significantly enhance the appearance of your smile by removing stains and discoloration, leaving your teeth whiter and brighter.
Professional teeth bleaching treatments provide noticeable results in a short time, often after just one session, making it a convenient cosmetic solution.
Teeth bleaching is a safe and non-invasive procedure that does not require surgery or extensive dental work, making it an easy option for those looking to enhance their smile.
How Do Zirconium Veneers Work?
Initial Consultation and Assessment
Before the bleaching process begins, the teeth are thoroughly cleaned to remove plaque and surface stains. The dentist then isolates the gums and lips to protect them from the bleaching agents.
Tooth Preparation
The dentist prepares the teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel from the front surface to ensure a proper fit for the veneers. Impressions are then taken of the prepared teeth, which will be used to create custom zirconium veneers.
Fabrication of Zirconium Veneers
A peroxide-based bleaching gel is applied to the teeth. In professional treatments, a special light or laser may be used to activate the bleaching agent, allowing it to penetrate the enamel and whiten the teeth.
Veneer Placement and Final Adjustments
After the desired level of whiteness is achieved, the bleaching agent is rinsed off, and the teeth are evaluated for evenness in color. The dentist may provide instructions for maintaining the results, including avoiding staining foods and practicing good oral hygiene.
