One of the most effective ways of teeth whitening is laser bleaching.
|
The most effective and popular methods of teeth whitening is laser bleaching. It was invented in the early 80’s and has become popular over the years. It is popular as it gives better and faster results than a bleach tray used at home. Though, there are some companies selling laser bleaching devices which can be used at home; it is advisable to get it done from a dentist. We need a bleaching gel and a laser beam for laser bleaching of teeth. Firstly, the teeth are exposed by placing retractors to pull away the cheek and the lips. This ensures that the teeth get maximum coverage of the light. Secondly, a protective casing is put over the cheeks and lips to protect it from the whitening agent. Thirdly, a coating is done on the gums to protect them from bleaching or else the gum gets irritated. The gel used in laser whitening is more viscous than the one used in tray bleaching. This gel is applied over the teeth to remove the discoloration. To energize the gel, a laser beam which is nothing but a ray of argon light is beamed over the coated teeth. This ray of light oxidizes the gel which works from the enamel to the inside of the teeth. The oxidized gel removes the stains from the teeth. Hence, we get shining white teeth within no time. The laser bleaching of teeth is more helpful in case of difficult stains which cannot be removed by tray bleaching. It is advisable to allow a dentist to perform the procedure of laser bleaching as he would be well equipped with the latest instruments and take necessary precautions. There are many advantages of laser bleaching. Firstly, it is a thorough and quick procedure. Secondly, it is convenient as it is performed in a dentist’s office under expert guidance and thus saves lot of effort and time. Thirdly, the effects are long lasting as compared to other treatments. Normally, laser bleaching of teeth takes a couple of sittings with the dentist to get good results. The cost of this procedure can be as high as $1000 which can vary from dentist to dentist. One should take care to follow up with the dentist once the procedure is completed. After the procedure is performed, the teeth may become sensitive for some period of time.
