What is Professional Teeth Whitening Procedure?
First of all, your dentist will make a record of the current shade of your teeth. Then, your teeth would be polished with pumice, a grainy material used to remove any plaque on the surface.
After that, your mouth will be isolated with gauze to keep your teeth dry. Retractors may be used to keep your cheeks, lips, and tongue well away from the whitening solution. Then a barrier would next be placed along the gum line to further protect it from exposure to the solution.
Next, your teeth would be coated with a whitening solution on the front surface only. The solution typically includes either hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide as the bleaching agent.
Many whitening products require a curing light or laser to activate the peroxide. Once applied, the solution would be left on the teeth for 30 to 60 minutes, or reapplied occasionally, depending on the brand.
Once the optimum shade has been reached (or the maximum time has passed), the teeth would be rinsed. A fluoride application may be used to help ease any tooth sensitivity.
