Having a bright smile is what most people want, which is why teeth whitening treatment has become increasingly popular in recent years.
It is fair to know that normally the white color of teeth tends to shades of yellow or gray, and each tooth has its own peculiar shade that characterizes it. There are several reasons, which we will discuss later, that lead to noticeable darkening of the smile or the formation of spots and blemishes, therefore, whitening can become really essential to regain a fresh and youthful appearance.

The color of teeth is determined by physiological reasons, thus, by the substances of which they are composed. The coloration depends on the inner tissue of the tooth, namely dentin, and the brightness is due to the most superficial and transparent layer, the enamel.
Genetics is the primary factor on which everyone’s tooth color depends, but over the course of a lifetime there are manycauses that change this specific white hue that fades more or less decisively toward yellow or gray.
Aging and habits can definitely change the appearance of the mouth. The passage of time certainly influences yellowing of teeth, but they can be stained by various substances that you take in on a daily basis.
The foods and drinks that most commonly generate stains on teeth are coffee, tea, chocolate, and licorice. Of course, smoking cigarettes and cigars also permanently soils teeth, in addition to being harmful in a general sense to the human organism.
Taking certain medications and drugs can also alter the color of teeth resulting in unsightly local discolorations tending to gray, brown, and black.
When stains or tooth color change are encountered, it is necessary to see a dentist to get a quick and safe stain removal and whitening.
Laser and LED teeth whitening
A practitioner before beginning any treatment must check the condition of the area on which he or she is to operate. The dentist proceeds with a general check of the teeth and, if necessary, performs a deep cleaning (scaling) to ensure perfect hygiene of the teeth and gums.
Having established the healthiness of the patient’s mouth, we move on to bleaching, the professional whitening that is done in a dental office with chemicals and light sources (LED lamps or lasers).
Power Bleaching
Home Bleaching
Power Bleaching + Home Bleaching
During the session, the professional dental hygienist provides gum and mucosal protection, then applies whitening gel to the teeth and administers LED or laser light or uses the thermo-catalytic method.
Home whitening in Castel Maggiore, Bologna, the second mentioned, involves the dentist making custom-made templates that perfectly encapsulate the dental arches, within which a whitening gel is to be dispensed.
Once the patient goes home, he or she should apply masks and gels according to the directions given by the dentist, respecting the timing and frequency of treatment.
Both methods can be employed to achieve excellent results. First the dental hygienist performs Power Bleaching, after which she sets up all the equipment for Home Bleaching and instructs the patient to continue the treatment in their own home.
