Teeth can turn more yellow than the color they are due to hereditary or subsequent factors. Today, it is possible to whiten teeth using different methods by dentists. In general, we can say that it is the process of removing the colored tissues formed in the porous enamel structure on the surface of the teeth with teeth whitening gels.

It is divided into two as home type and office type.

Home whitening is the process of squeezing the whitening agent into the personalized plaques prepared by the physician and applying it for an average of 6-8 hours a day.

Office whitening is the process of applying the whitening agent to the teeth for an average of 30-60 minutes in the patient's physician's chair.

Is teeth whitening painful?

It varies from person to person and sensitivity may occur during the treatment and for a short period of time afterwards. Apart from that, the whitening process does not have any side effects.
