Whiter Teeth, Brighter Smiles
The Power of Teeth Whitening
Currently, dental whitening is recognized as the most effective method for treating pigmented teeth. It is also a conservative procedure, increasing patient comfort and safety.
Teeth whitening is a dental procedure that will quickly and effectively improve the color of your teeth from mild to significantly.
As a result, you will obtain whiter teeth, boost your self-esteem, and permanently show a beautiful smile every day.
Whitening options
In-Office Teeth Whitening
The advantages of getting in-office teethwhitening are:
- Immediate visible results.
- Whiten the areas with darker stains caused by ingesting food and beverages such as tea, coffee, wine, tobacco or fruits with strong pigments.
- Remove stains caused by aging, as teeth darken over time, becoming yellowish, brown, or grayish.
- It is an extremely safe procedure.
This kind of teeth whitening is carried out under carefully monitored conditions by a specialist, which allow the safe, controlled, and painless use of a relatively high concentration of whitening gel, achieving visible and immediate results.
Home Whitening
With this whitening method, the patient is responsible for applying the product using a dental guard, which is very practical and easy, although supervision at the clinic with the specialists is still necessary, as they are also the ones who provide the whitening product with the appropriate percentage for you.
This dental guard has the shape of your teeth, making it unique and personalized, and it is made of a transparent material so that it fits perfectly on your teeth when you smear the whitening gel.
Disadvantages are:
- If you have extensive cavities or your gums are affected by some disease or recession, you may experience pain or sensitivity in the affected area.
- Inappropriate handling of the product (using it without following the instructions).
- Longer time needed.
Advantages are:
- Comfort: You can whiten at any time of the day or night, for short or long periods.
- Portability: It can also be used in the office or while traveling.

Teeth whitening after care
You must attempt:
- Ingesting for one week: plain chicken, fish, plain pasta, white sauces or creams, cereals, milk, and Sprite as a carbonated drink. After that, your diet can return to normal
- Using dental floss for a complete hygiene routine.
- Continuing aftercare through a dental cleaning once a year.
To achieve a bright and radiant smile, avoidthe following for the first week:
- Teeth staining foods or beverages: Tomate sauce, soy sauce, chocolate, berries, coffee, soda, tea, and red wine.
- Hot or cold beverages and foods for the first 24 hours.
- Any drink or food that would stain a white shirt.
- Using neither toothpaste with artificial colorings (blue or red) nor mouthwash for 24 hours.
There are not many barriers that prevent the patient from undergoing a dental whitening treatment. As long as the entire mouth is healthy, it is possible to carry out this dental treatment without any problems. Contraindications are usually for patients who have oral problems such as very advanced periodontal diseases or extensive dental decay. You must be assessed and assisted individually by the specialist.
An important question! Normally, it can last several years (from 3 to 5 years). It is possible that you may need a touch-up to extend the new radiant tone of your teeth. The duration will depend on habits, cleanliness, and post-whitening care.
Each patient has a unique and particular dental coloring; just like fingerprints, genetics plays an important role in dental aesthetics. Certainly, the color of our teeth is determined by the internal tissue (called dentin) and tends to be darker in color. This internal tissue is covered by a harder superficial layer called enamel, which has a translucent tone.
However, it can
be affected by common abnormalities such as fluorosis, certain medications, foods with a lot of pigment, smoking tobacco, or simply aging, all of which can give the appearance of yellow or dull teeth. That is why there are a wide variety of dental shades.
Unfortunately, dental restorations do not react to teeth-whitening procedures, so they will retain their original color. It is also important to consider that teeth whitening should be performed prior to any dental restorations so that they can match the shade achieved in the treatment.
If you are thinking about having a radiant smile and you already have any tooth restorations, you should consult our dental specialist.
90% of our patients come recommended due to a pleasant experience with all types of aesthetic and dental health treatments. We adapt to the expectations and requirements of each of our patients; we have more than 20 years of experience, so we have gone along with the evolution and innovation of dental whitening over time, which is why we have the highest quality materials and spectacular results for our patients.
Yes, there are affordable teeth whitening options available. Over-the-counter whitening toothpaste and strips are generally more budget-friendly, but they may take longer to show results compared to professional treatments.
Dental insurance typically does not cover the cost of cosmetic procedures like teeth whitening. It is considered elective and not medically necessary.
Some people explore DIY or natural teeth whitening methods, such as baking soda or activated charcoal. While these options may be cost-effective, their effectiveness and safety can vary, and it’s essential to exercise caution.
