Teeth whitening (bleaching) First of all, your teeth are cleaned by your dentist. A plastic or rubber shield is used to keep your mouth open during the teeth whitening process. Then, a protective layer is applied to your gums to protect them from the bleaching gel. In this way, it helps to prevent gingival irritation and gingival burning. The whitening gel is applied to the teeth and left for about 20 minutes. Special UV goggles are put on and the whitening agent is activated by Laser or UV rays. After 20 minutes, gel is applied to the teeth again and left for 20 minutes. The teeth whitening process is completed.
In general, after about 3 to 4 years, the teeth will turn dark again. It’s about how you take care of your teeth. If you use color-containing beverages such as coffee and red wine, or if you smoke, a repeat teeth whitening session may be required after one year.
You can eat and drink again about 2 hours after teeth whitening. There may be tenderness for the first few days. Therefore, extremely cold or extremely hot foods and drinks should be avoided. It is necessary to stay away from tea, coffee, cigarettes, ketchup, red wine, acidic drinks and colored foods for 48 hours after teeth whitening. Even if the whitening gel stays on your teeth for a certain period of time, it will continue to be effective for the first 24 hours after application and the color tone will become a little more bitter. During this time, colorful foods and drinks should be avoided.
