Tired of stains from coffee, wine, or smoking dulling your smile? Teeth whitening uses professional-grade bleaching agents activated by laser or air polishing to remove surface and deep stains, lifting tooth color several shades brighter. Laser accelerates the gel for faster results, while air polishing gently blasts away buildup with fine particles – delivering a natural, even whiteness without sensitivity for most patients.
Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening?
In-office treatments are stronger and safer than over-the-counter kits, providing immediate, long-lasting results with customized trays or gels. Laser and air polishing minimize enamel damage, target stubborn stains effectively, and include protective measures – outperforming home methods by avoiding uneven tones or gum irritation.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Whitening?
Adults with healthy teeth and gums, free of untreated decay or fillings in front teeth, qualify best; those with intrinsic stains may need multiple sessions. Smokers or heavy stainers benefit greatly. During your consultation at OxyDental Noho, we’ll assess enamel strength and shade goals to ensure safe, optimal whitening.
The Teeth Whitening Procedure Step by Step
We protect gums with a barrier, apply the whitening gel, and activate with laser for 15-30 minutes per cycle (1-3 cycles) or use air polishing for initial stain removal. The session lasts 45-90 minutes – comfortable under optional numbing, with instant visible brightening.
What to Expect During Recovery
Mild sensitivity may occur for 24-48 hours, eased with desensitizing toothpaste; avoid staining foods/drinks for 48 hours. Results peak in days, lasting 1-3 years with touch-ups – no downtime, just a brighter smile right away.
Benefits Beyond a Whiter Smile
Whitening boosts confidence in photos and meetings, encourages better hygiene habits, and complements other cosmetics like veneers. Patients report feeling younger and more approachable – a simple enhancement for everyday radiance.
