 Let's talk about everyone's favorite topic White Teeth! Almost each one of you must have tried to whiten your teeth at least once with one of those home remedies available on the internet or must have even asked your Dentist regarding the similar.
I mean who would not want a sparkling bright smile to boost their confidence, right ?!
When I am talking about teeth whitening ..no way! I am not telling you those natural DIYS to whiten your precious teeth. Following are the ways dentists would recommend...




1.Dental Cleaning 


                                                    source

Dental cleaning will remove surface stains, making your teeth appear whiter. The dental hygienist will also polish your teeth to brighten and smooth the enamel. Smoother teeth are less likely to pick up stains. 


 Plus, cleaning makes teeth whitening treatments more effective. This is because smooth, stain-free teeth are more receptive to the gels used to whiten teeth. 

2.At-home bleaching

.The dentist will take an impression of your teeth to make a specialized tray and tell you how to use it with a bleaching gel. Then, using your specialized tray at home, you regularly apply the gel for a specified time over 2 to 4 weeks. Some whitening gels can be left on for up to 8 hours at a time, which shortens the treatment period to 1 week.


3. In-office bleaching

Laser whitening, also known as power whitening, is another type of teeth whitening system that a dentist can provide. A bleaching product is painted onto your teeth and then a light or laser is shone on them to activate the whitening. Laser whitening takes about an hour. The bleaching solution is usually much stronger than at-home kits.

4.Practicing good oral hygiene

Practicing good oral hygiene is a good start to whiter teeth.

Avoid stain-causing foods and beverages – coffee, tea, wine, sports drinks, hard candy, berries, and tomato sauce are all foods that can cause tooth discoloration.


Use a straw – when drinking beverages, use a straw to keep stain-causing dyes away from your teeth.
Quit smoking – smoking tobacco can cause teeth to become discolored. Eliminating tobacco can help keep your teeth bright.

Tooth whitening or dental bleaching that we call it can lighten the tooth color by 2-3 shades. The results may last for 3 to 9 years depending on other factors such as patient's diet, dental hygiene, or habit such as smoking...
