How Does tooth Whitening Work?

Tooth whitening is a bleaching process for tooth enamel and dentin discoloration. It’s performed in a dental clinic
or at home under a dentist’s supervision.

Here’s a concise guide for clinic-based tooth whitening:
• Preparation – A dentist examines and cleans your teeth, ensuring they’re suitable for whitening.
• Whitening Gel Application – A hydrogen peroxide gel is applied to the teeth for bleaching.
• Zoom Light Activation – Teeth are exposed to a high-intensity Zoom light for 15-20 minutes to enhance
bleaching and breaking down stains.
• Multiple Light Cycles – Depending on the discoloration severity, the light activation may repeat for additional 15-
minute cycles for deeper stain removal.
• Evaluation and Desensitizing Gel – After achieving the desired whiteness, the dentist applies a desensitizing gel
to reduce sensitivity. More sessions might be recommended for further whitening.
• Post-Treatment Care -The dentist advises avoiding certain foods and drinks to maintain whiteness
