Who doesn’t love a pearly white smile and bright white teeth? Many people spend heaps of money just to achieve white teeth. But now with Perfora teeth whitening is easy!
Teeth whitening is the process of removing dirt and discolouration from your teeth using teeth whitening products or procedures. As it makes the teeth appear better, it is one of the most used cosmetic dentistry operations. Mostly done by applying a carbamide peroxide- or hydrogen peroxide-based chemical to the surface of the teeth at Perfora you get the teeth whitening products that are peroxide free and are a safer better procedure than others. The content present in the products breaks stains into smaller pieces and makes the colour less concentrated, resulting in brighter teeth.
There are two types of teeth whitening procedures:
The most prevalent form of whitening is vital whitening. It is done by a professional dentist where in they use a powerful whitening gel in conjunction with specific light, allowing bleaching to occur more quickly. It is only done on teeth with active nerves and employs a gel that is applied to the surface of your tooth. The gel contains hydrogen peroxide which is a vital ingredient for teeth whitening.
Non-Vital Whitening: Non-vital whitening is used to remove intrinsic discolouration on teeth and is most typically performed on a tooth having a root canal treatment.
With all these teeth whitening procedures prevailing, it is still not possible that all teeth can be whitened as discolouration on crowns, caps, veneers, and fillings do not usually react well to whitening as well on brown, grey, or black teeth caused by injury or medication. Some tooth darkening is also an indication of a more serious disease and should be evaluated by your oral health practitioner.
Also as we get old our enamel thins and our dentin (The harder component of teeth and primary cause of tooth colour) darkens, making our teeth seem yellower. Yellow tooth discolouration, fortunately, usually responds favorably to teeth whitening solutions.
While using any teeth whitening products or teeth whitening treatments, there are things to consider
