Teeth Whitening Methods in Turkey:

1. Laser (In-office) Teeth Whitening

It usually takes about an hour and only needs one office visit for this process. The dentist may use a rubber barrier or a gel to protect your gums during treatment. The next step is to apply a teeth whitening bleach to the teeth. A blue light or laser will then be used by the dentist to activate the photoactive components in the chemical. The light accelerates the whitening product’s reaction and color change.

2. Internal Teeth Whitening 

It can be described as the process of using whitening gel to brighten the teeth from the inside out. This whitening gel generates free radicals that bond with interdental pigments, thus lightening tooth enamel. When the enamel on the outside of the teeth reflects lighter colors, the teeth look cleaner and brighter.

3. External Teeth Whitening 

This term refers to the process of lightening the teeth’s outer surface by removing maculation. Stains caused by smoking, drinking tea, or coffee are typically removed using this method. Bleaching from the outside helps to change the color of your teeth and make them whiter.

How is Teeth Whitening performed in Turkey? 

The dentist will first take a record of your teeth’s present shade. After that, the plaque on the surface of your teeth would be removed and then pumice, which is a grainy material, would be used to polish your teeth. To avoid getting your teeth wet, gauze will be used to isolate your mouth. The dentist can use retractors to keep your lips, gums, and tongue safely out of the whitening solution. The next step would be to apply a whitening solution to the front of the teeth. Hydrogen peroxide is the typical bleaching agent used in the solution. The peroxide in whitening products can only be activated by a curing light or laser. The solution would be put on the teeth and left there for 30 to 60 minutes. It could be repeated every so often. After the desired level of whiteness has been achieved, the teeth are rinsed.
