Bleaching – teeth whitening
Millions of people suffer from dental discoloration to varying degrees. Even those who brush, floss, and visit the dentist regularly may find that food, environmental factors, and the passage of time will eventually take their toll on the natural radiance of their teeth. Fortunately, professional teeth whitening is an incredibly effective way to lighten or altogether eliminate stains and achieve a naturally white smile.
Teeth Whitening or teeth bleaching is a treatment process that restores stained or discoloured teeth or single tooth to a healthy, natural color. Dr. Meera’s superspeciality Dental Clinic centre is equipped with ZOOM-ADVANCED POWER-the world’s no1 teeth whitening system. It is the most powerful and safest bleaching system which uses a sodium arc bulb for the process. Another light source used at Dr. Meera’s superspeciality Dental Clinic centre for teeth whitening is a high powered LED LAMP. It is relatively less powerful bleaching system but is comparatively inexpensive.
What causes tooth or teeth discolouration?
- Frequently drinking coffee, tea, or colas causes teeth discoloration.
- Some antibiotics may darken developing teeth in children.
- Aging – The dentin underneath the enamel of a tooth gradually darkens with age causing teeth coloration.
- Use of tobacco products also causes generalized teeth discoloration.
- Accidents – If a tooth has been traumatized, sometimes the nerve will gradually “die,” and the tooth becomes dark causing tooth discoloration.
- After Root Canal Therapy, a tooth will generally darken because of loos of nerve supply causing tooth discoloration.
