Bleaching teeth by home method
Teeth bleaching is a branch of cosmetic dentistry, during which tooth discolouration and dark spots on the teeth that have developed over time are removed with a special bleaching agent. Various factors may affect teeth discoloration. Age, genetics, use of colored food, smoking and chemical drugs, etc.
One of the most important factors in the face is the beauty of the smile. You can whiten and shine your teeth with bleaching treatment.
Teeth whitening treatment methods
Teeth bleaching treatment is done in two ways: office bleaching and home bleaching. In both tooth bleaching methods, a substance called hydrogen peroxide is placed on the teeth and as soon as the light shines on the substance, it becomes active and causes the dark spots on the teeth to disappear and the teeth to whiten. The difference between bleaching office and bleaching home methods is in the type of substance used and its concentration. In bleaching office, the concentration of substances is stronger and the substance works faster, while in bleaching home, it takes a week to reach a conclusion.
