Modern dentistry has
many tools to restore teeth in a natural looking, more
beautiful fashion. The combination of sophisticated bonding
technology along with the development of durable, enamel
like restorative materials is making silver fillings
rapidly become a thing of the past.
WHITENING
OF TEETH
Teeth’s whitening is a new trend in dentistry.
Teeth can become stained from tobacco, coffee, antibiotics
or from foods and beverage with artificial colours.
There are different procedures
for whitening teeth: using gels or even laser treatment.
We use a 16% karbamid peroxide gel. The procedure is
very simple and with no side affects. The patient carry’s
a plastic bleaching tray 4 – 8 hours for a minimum
of 8 days. The gel changes the colour of the teeth
by entering the enamel and dentin. The whitened teeth
last for 3-4 years, after when the procedure can be
renewed. Whitening of teeth is successful for less
discoloration, but for very dark teeth you should use
other systems like veneers or crowns.
