Your Dentist for Teeth whitening

Your Dentist for Teeth whitening

home

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure aimed at brightening your smile by removing stains from the tooth enamel. This treatment involves the use of chemical agents like hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which effectively lighten the color of the teeth.

During the teeth whitening procedure, a gel containing a bleaching substance is applied to the teeth, left to act briefly, and then removed again, while the gums are carefully protected.

Key Benefits and Uses of Teeth Whitening

  • Whitens teeth in a targeted manner, enhancing their appearance for a brighter smile

  • Relatively simple and painless treatment process

  • Useful for naturally darker teeth

  • Effective in treating discoloration caused by food, drinks, or habits such as smoking

In-Office teeth whitening

The clinic team performs in-office whitening right at the practice by applying a gel to the teeth and using a specialized light source to accelerate the process. The treatment usually lasts around 90 minutes.

At-Home teeth whitening

Home bleaching is carried out at home. The patient receives a fitted splint from his dentist into which the gel is filled. The patient then wears the splint for several hours a day.

Teeth whitening treatment steps

Certain groups of people and dental conditions necessitate special caution and attention. It is crucial to receive personalized advice and undergo suitability testing by a dentist to accurately evaluate these factors. For instance, if you have sensitive teeth with exposed roots, visible dental work, or extensive fillings, you may not be a good candidate for whitening. Teeth whitening is not recommended for children under 18, pregnant women, or breastfeeding patients. We would be pleased to provide you with advice on this matter!

Before Treatment

Before Treatment

Initially, the dentist advises the patient about the treatment and informs them about possible risks and side effects, taking the patient's medical history and examining the teeth and gums. If necessary, an X-ray of the teeth and jaw is taken, and a professional teeth cleaning is performed.

In-Office Teeth Whitening

In-Office Teeth Whitening

If the option of in-office teeth whitening was selected by the patient together with the doctor, then the dentist applies the whitening gel to the teeth and a special gum protector. The gel is activated with a special light source. This usually takes around 30' per jaw.

At-Home Teeth Whitening

At-Home Teeth Whitening

If the option of at-home teeth whitening was selected by the patient together with the doctor, then the dentist does a scan or takes an impression to order a customized splint from a dental lab. At home, the patient applies a modest quantity of bleaching gel into the splint, which is then worn for several hours a day for one to two weeks. During this time, the gel will efficiently whiten the exterior of the teeth.

After Treatment

After Treatment

After the procedure, the teeth should be cared for particularly carefully. This includes regular brushing, flossing, and mouthwash. Patients should avoid smoking, or drinking coffee, tea, or red wine after treatment, to protect the teeth from further discoloration.

Was passiert bei einer In-Office Bleaching-Behandlung?

chevron down

Zu Beginn der Zahnbleaching-Behandlung wird besprochen, welchen Farbton Sie anstreben. Anschließend werden die Zähne gesäubert und das Zahnfleisch abgedeckt, um es vor dem Bleichmittel-Gel zu schützen. Es wird dann ein besonders sanftes Gel auf die Zähne aufgetragen und mittels Plasma-Beleuchtung aktiviert. Dabei entstehen sogenannte Sauerstoff-Radikale, welche die Verfärbungen in den Zähnen auflösen. Das Ergebnis ist eine nachhaltige Zahnaufhellung und hält bis zu 4 Jahren!

Wieviel kostet die Bleaching-Behandlung?

chevron down

Ein professionelles Zahnbleaching ist eine reine Privatleistung, da keine medizinische Notwendigkeit vorliegt. Diese Leistung der ästhetischen Zahnmedizin wird nicht von der gesetzlichen Krankenkasse übernommen. Die Kosten für Privat- und gesetzlich Krankenversicherte belaufen sich auf circa 399€ für eine Zahnbleaching Behandlung. Bitte denken Sie daran, dass bevor wir ein Bleaching Ihrer Zähne durchführen können, eine Kontrolluntersuchung durch einen unserer Zahnärzte erfolgen muss.

Ist Bleaching schmerzhaft?

chevron down

Die Bleaching Behandlung ist komplett schmerzfrei. Die Wärme der UV-Lampe wird teilweise sogar als angenehm bezeichnet. Nach dem Zähne bleachen kann es für ca. 12 bis 24 Stunden zu einem kaum wahrnehmbaren Kribbeln durch das Aufhellungsgel kommen. Es handelt sich dabei um eine Überempfindlichkeit der Zähne.

Wie lange dauert eine Bleaching-Sitzung?

chevron down

Das Zahnbleaching ist in der Regel nach nur einem einzigen Zahnarztbesuch abgeschlossen. Die Behandlung dauert etwa 1,5 bis 2 Stunden. Bei besonders starken Verfärbungen der Zähne, kann selbstverständlich ein zusätzlicher Termin gebucht werden, um den gewünschten Farbton zu erreichen. Die Zahnbleaching Behandlung wird für circa 399€ angeboten. Bitte denken Sie daran, dass bevor wir ein Bleaching Ihrer Zähne durchführen können, eine Kontrolluntersuchung durch einen unserer Zahnärzte erfolgen muss.

Was sollte ich nach dem Bleaching beachten?

chevron down

Nach dem Bleaching ist es wichtig, die Zähne ausreichend feucht zu halten. Daher sollten Sie viel Flüssigkeit zu sich nehmen. Besonders gut geeignet sind Wasser oder Milch. Auf andere Getränke wie Kaffee, Tee oder Rotwein sollten sie mindestens 48 Stunden nach der Behandlung verzichten. Weiterhin sollten sie 2 Tage auf bekannte, färbende Lebensmittel (z.B. Rote Beete, Kurkuma, Möhren, Cola etc.) verzichten. Auch Produkte wie gefärbte Zahnpasta, Mundspülungen oder Lippenstift können das Ergebnis der Zahnaufhellung negativ beeinflussen.

Ist Bleaching schädlich für die Zähne?

chevron down

Das Zahnbleaching verursacht keine Schäden am Zahn oder dem Zahnfleisch und ist medizinisch unbedenklich. Es ist jedoch wichtig, dass die Bleaching-Behandlung durch ein geschultes Fachpersonal vorgenommen wird. Nur dann kann sichergestellt werden, dass keine Vorerkrankung der Zähne vorliegt und alle Prozessschritte korrekt und sauber durchgeführt werden.

Was muss ich vor der ersten Bleaching-Behandlung beachten?

chevron down

Bevor wir bei Ihnen eine Bleaching Behandlung durchführen können, muss eine Kontrolluntersuchung von einem unserer Zahnärzte erfolgen. Vor dem Zahnbleaching muss geprüft werden, ob Karies oder unzureichende Restaurationen vorhanden sind. Auch bei einer Entzündung des Zahnfleisches ist ein Bleaching nicht geeignet. Außerdem ist oftmals eine professionelle Zahnreinigung notwendig, da sich durch Plaque verfärbte Zahnbereiche nicht aufhellen lassen.
