Our smile is the
first thing people notice about us. Would you not want to have sparkling white
teeth in order to flash that smile with more confidence?
We introduce the best and latest method of
teeth whitening by means of LASER DENTISTRY. After whitening tooth-pastes, home-bleaching
and in-office bleaching techniques, laser teeth whitening is considered to be
the most advanced method of getting lighter shades of teeth.
Whitening
toothpastes mostly remove stains and bring back the actual color of teeth while
home bleaching and in office conventional bleaching techniques require multiple
visits and long-term use for clinically visible results.
LASER whitening
provides both effective and quicker results than any other technique.
Why does discoloration of teeth occur?
·
With increasing age lighter
(whiter) colored enamel wear exposing the yellowish dentin underneath that.
Also there are high chances of gradual staining of teeth due to the foods we
eat and drink.
- · Smoking and other tobacco habits.
- · Some people naturally have a dull shade of teeth.
- · Deposits or ‘tartar’ can also affect the color of teeth.
- · Disturbances in enamel and dentin (inner side of enamel) during tooth formation can also lead to discolored teeth.
- · Excessive fluorides from water and other sources cause tooth is coloration varying from white spots or flakes to brown brittle tooth surface.
- · Consumption of drugs like tetracycline(antibiotic), antihistamines and drugs for high blood pressure, Iron and vitamin and mineral supplements and many others cause tooth discoloration.
- · Damage to tooth from a fall can cause dis coloration of tooth much later after the fall.

and therefore a proper option has to be chosen after consultation only.
Laser Whitening:
Traditional
teeth bleaching techniques consume too much time also cause lot more
side-effects to the gums. The latest LASER WHITENING techniques overcome these
and provide the safest and quickest teeth whitening.
Laser tooth
whitening involves mainly two steps; one is cleaning the teeth in which the
plaque and germs present in the teeth that have a major effect in the whitening
process are removed.
Next is the application
of a LASER activated whitening gel. In fact, the laser enhances and makes the
whole process faster so that it produces results in a matter of a few minutes.
Often a single visit will get the required result. Sometimes more than one session
may be needed to achieve satisfactory result in extreme cases of tooth discoloration.
