What is teeth whitening?

Dental whitening ranks among the top cosmetic procedures requested by our patients. Our approach involves a thorough diagnostic process, tailored treatment planning, and ongoing maintenance. By using minimally invasive techniques and materials, teeth whitening significantly enhances the aesthetic quality of our patients' smiles. Its widespread appeal is due to the remarkable results it provides, all at an accessible price.

How is teeth whitening performed with an LED lamp?

Before teeth whitening treatment, the specialist checks the health of your gums and detects any potential pathologies. It's important to ensure there are no hidden cavities and perform a complete professional dental cleaning.
Cold light or LED lamp whitening is an advanced technique used in dental offices. It involves applying a whitening gel containing 35%–40% hydrogen peroxide, depending on the brand, and activating the lamp to accelerate the process. This method is fast and effective, but more expensive than at-home whitening and is performed exclusively in the clinic under supervision.​

Types of teeth whitening

External whitening
  • The most common whitening procedure is performed in the clinic in a single session, applying whitening agents to the teeth and using a cold light or LED lamp.
  • It is a quick procedure but more expensive. There is also whitening with trays, which is done at home using custom trays filled with whitening gel, which can be worn during the day or at night depending on the concentration of the gel.
Internal whitening
  • Internal whitening is used for teeth with severe staining due to trauma or root canal treatments. Unlike external whitening, which works on all the teeth, internal whitening is applied to a single tooth and focuses on lightening the dentin in the pulp chamber.
  • This procedure requires that the tooth structure is in good condition.
