A Smile Expert’s Deep Dive into Teeth Whitening in Andheri West 🦷 H1 A Smile Expert’s Deep Dive into Teeth Whitening in Andheri West Thinking of getting whiter teeth Think your smile is dull Well you are not alone, As Smile experts in Andheri West, we regularly get patients with such concerns. If you are thinking of getting teeth whitening, this blog is all you need to read before consulting or planning your teeth whitening. In this blog, our experts will dive into the details and FAQs about teeth whitening! H2 What Is Teeth Whitening and Why Is It So Popular Teeth Whitening is a procedure, in which the shade of the tooth is changed to give a lighter, brighter appearance. This is most commonly achieved with 2 technologies- Whitening gel and UV light. We use a whitening gel on your tooth enamel and activate it with the help of a UV light to oxidize the yellow colour to a whiter colour. With so many trends of teeth whitening, let's take a deep dive into understanding it better from a professional’s point of view. H2 Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments Available There are 2 main ways to get Teeth Whitening done- In Clinic Professional Teeth Whitening & At Home Teeth Whitening. When your dentist does a session of teeth whitening- this is called IN CLINIC PROFESSIONAL TEETH WHITENING. It is done with the help of Whitening Gels which are applied onto your teeth and activated with UV light. This is best done under a doctor's supervision and usually delivers predictable, safe results. At Plexus Dental Studio, we swear by the World’s best Teeth whitening technology- Phillips Zoom Whitening. It is designed with the patient's comfort in mind to achieve good results while causing the least amount of sensitivity and is generally considered very safe. On the other hand, if you are unable to get to the dentist for a whitening session, you can also do an AT HOME WHITENING Therapy. This involves applying the whitening gel into a custom made tray for your teeth and wearing it for 15 minutes, at least 3-4 times day for 2-3 days. H3 In-Clinic Professional Teeth Whitening What to expect during your In- Clinic Teeth Whitening session If you’re worried that this is going to be like your regular dental visit with the drills and the machines, you’re in for a treat! AtPDS, we consider your teeth whitening session as a Dental Spa, where you can pamper yourself while enjoying a relaxing session and walk out with a million dollar smile! Here are the steps for your in clinic whitening session 1. Starting with some photographs of your teeth, we do a thorough cleaning and polishing to remove any external stains. 2. We apply an ANTI SENSITIVITY paste on your enamel and put lots of cotton and petroleum jelly to ensure the whitening gel doesn't accidentally spill onto your gums cheeks. 3. We apply the WHITENING GEL on all your front teeth and start the 15 minute Zoom Whitening cycle, which activates the gel and oxidizes the internal staining of your teeth. 4. We can achieve up to 4 shades of lightness with every 15 minute cycle. And we would recommend at least 3 cycles of 15 minutes in one session to observe visible changes. 5. Once the cycles are complete, we apply a final layer of ANTI SENSITIVITY paste and take photographs so you can actually appreciate the difference. H3 At-Home Whitening Kits and Remedies For home whitening kits, we make a custom transparent tray which fits on your teeth. These trays are re-usable and can be worn and removed comfortably by you. Inside these trays, you can place a small pea-sized amount of whitening gel- each on the area of a tooth- and wear the tray on brushed, clean teeth. This tray has to be worn for approx. 15-20 minutes after which you can remove and rinse. This “cycle” can be repeated a few times a day over 2-3 days to gradually and gently whitening your teeth at home. These gels are usually milder than the one’s dentists use in their office, and also do not involve any UV light activation. This is why the whitening occurs gradually and the results may be less dramatic than the ones done with Professional methods. H3 Natural Teeth Whitening Remedies – Do They Really Work I’m sure you might think that instead of all this hassle, why dont i just try the viral hack for teeth whitening i saw the other day on Instagram There are some natural ingredients like “ Lemon + Vinegar” or “ Baking Soda” which the internet claims can whiten teeth at home. However, are these natural ingredients safe While these ingredients may be natural and safe to use in the foods, they might not necessarily be safe when applied repeatedly on your teeth. In our experience, recurrent direct use of lemon juice on teeth can lead to wearing away of your healthy enamel and making your teeth very sensitive and in turn more yellow. Baking soda has a lot of abrasive effects on your tooth enamel and might not be safe for regular use. While these hacks might seem easy to do, the effects are not long- lasting and definitive. H2 Is Teeth Whitening Safe What Experts in Andheri West Say Professional teeth whitening is definitely safer than using at home hacks to whiten your teeth. Teeth whitening using either Hydrogen Peroxide or Carbamide Peroxide which penetrates your teeth and combines with the internal stains to oxidize them, thereby lightening your teeth. These agents are very safe to use on healthy enamel and do not cause any lasting damage.While using OTC whitening methods for Home whitening, it is better to use dentist-approved whitening systems to ensure safety. H3 Side Effects and How to Avoid Them Here are some common side effects of teeth whitening and how you can manage them Side Effects What to expect How to manage How long does it last Temporary teeth sensitivity Teeth may feel sensitive for up to 24 hours. Can also cause mild pain- called “ zingers” which lasts for a few hours after whitening Apply anti- sensitivity paste before and after whitening Take a mild prescribed pain killer on the day of the procedure. Up to 24-48 hours at max. Sore Gums Lips Small area on the gums cheeks can become red swollen and painful Apply vit. E oil petroleum jelly for a few days to ease out the discomfort. Up to 3-4 days. H2 Teeth Whitening Price in Mumbai What to Expect While most people think that a professional teeth whitening session might cost them an arm and a leg, they might not be completely off the mark! The general cost in India for teeth whitening can vary starting from Rs.10,000- onwards for one cycle. Teeth whitening prices depend on the whitening system, and the number of cycles you need. The cost of Teeth Whitening in Mumbai can range anywhere between Rs.15,000- 30,000- . Home Whitening systems are more cose effective than In OFFICE Systems, and can range from Rs. 5,000 onwards. H2 Choosing the Right Whitening Option What Your Smile Deserves When choosing which whitening treatment is better for you- it's a good idea to understand your requirements and budget. For example, if you are looking for a quick whitening session - in one day which gives faster results- it's advisable to go for the professional In clinic whitening session. However, if your teeth are not too yellow and you just want a touch up, you can go for the gradual HOME WHITENING Kit. So it's a good idea to plan your Dental visit first and speak to a professional about your teeth whitening goals, and they can advise the right type of whitening for you. H3 Factors to Consider Before Whitening Here are a few things to consider before you visit the dentist for your whitening session Some of the factors to look out for are 1. Daily habit of drinking tea coffee ( more than 2 cups a day) 2. Smoking 3. Existing Teeth Sensitivity 4. Other Dental concerns- pain or cavities, or existing fillings caps in front teeth. H2 Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Whitening Some of the most common questions asked after whitening are - how long is this going to last Well, the answer mostly depends on your diet habits. IF you are someone who drinks a lot of tea coffee ( more than 2 cups a day), or someone who has a lot of colored food, you are likely to notice your teeth getting the stains faster. As Indian cuisine has a lot of spices- turmeric, red chilli- we need a whitening maintenance kit to prolong the results. - What to eat after the procedure it’s best to restrict your diet to White coloured foods for the initial 48 hours after the whitening session. - How to make my whitening last longer 1. Reducing food beverages which cause staining of teeth 2. Reducing smoking 3. Brushing and flossing regularly to ensure your daily stains are cleaned off. 4. Home maintenance kit of whitening to ensure the results last longer. H3 How long does teeth whitening last A routine teeth whitening should last you for a good year’s time. However, for most patients in India, in our experience the whitening subsides gradually after 6-8 months. This is due to our diet and maintenance habits. At PDS, we recommend our patients to come in for a follow up after their whitening within 6-8 months.This helps us evaluate if any touch up needs to be done in the office, or with a maintenance kit. This is also a budget friendly option as maintenance kits are more affordable and require less cycles after an initial In Clinic Whitening session. H3 How often should I whiten my teeth You can whiten your teeth as frequently as 3-6 months with your HOME Whitening KIT. However, for in-office professional whitening, it is recommended once a year. If you feel your whitening results can last longer, then you can even wait for a good 1.5 -2 years. As Smile Experts, we offer various smile makeover procedures which involve teeth whitening. We recommend that before proceeding with any whitening, it is advisable to consult your dentist and thoroughly understand the procedure.
