Why do we Need: A Beautiful Smile and Beautiful Teeth?
Pristine white teeth are a dream of many people. And the most effective way to achieve this is to go to a dental clinic for laser or photobleaching. However, often people are looking for excuses to avoid visiting the doctors. And one of the most effective treatments that will not require you to spend hours in the dentist’s office is to use Teeth Whitening Strips in Dubai, Abu Dhabi & Sharjah.
What are Whitening Strips?
These are thin elastic plates on which a healing gel is applied. The plates are superimposed on the teeth; the composition of the gel reacts with the enamel and makes it lighter.
The principle of operation is similar to the Zoom Whitening System.
The composition of the gel includes peroxides, which in the open-air begin to release oxygen ions actively. They, in turn, interact with the pigments on the surface of the teeth and destroy them.
Quick Tip! Professional dentistry also uses similar substances, but the concentration of active substances is higher.
Are they Effective?
Yes, they have a particular effect. They use the same components as the ones used in professional whitening, just in lower concentrations. They can whiten teeth by 1 to 4 tones, and a professional whitening will make teeth whiter by 8 to 12 tones.
They can be used to eliminate the slight pigmentation. The yellow pigment caused due to coffee, tea, and cigarettes can also be effectively removed. These strips are also popularly used to get rid of residual age spots after removing braces.
Results:
The significant outcome of the treatment is the removal of stains caused due to drinks like coffee and tea. They can also remove age spots and will whiten the enamel by 1 to 4 shades.
Why is a Dental Consultation Essential Before Use?
The doctor evaluates the condition of the teeth and concludes whether the strips can be used in each individual case. Enamel, like the structure of teeth, enamel differs in thickness and transparency in all people.
So, for example, if a patient with increased transparency of the enamel decides to whiten with strips without consulting a doctor, the enamel may become even whiter and even more transparent, and the teeth will appear gray.
If the patient has enamel that is too thin, teeth sensitivity may increase after the treatment. Some cracks can appear, which will darken over time.
How to Use Them?
The procedure should be carried out 1 to 2 times a day. It is important to note that the strips for the upper and lower teeth differ from each other.
The duration of the treatment depends on the type of strips chosen; information about this should be sought in the instructions, usually from 5 to 30 minutes. It is impossible to exceed the specified time not to damage the enamel.
After removing the strips, brush your teeth with a soft brush and rinse your mouth. The strips must be reused. The whitening takes 2 to 4 weeks. For the entire duration of treatment, it is necessary to refuse any foods that have a tendency to stain your teeth.
How Long do Strips on Teeth?
Depending on the manufacturer and composition of the product, the teeth whitening strips must be kept for 5 to 30 minutes. At this time, in no case should you smoke, eat, drink and even sleep with stripes on your teeth. During the entire whitening course, it is not recommended to eat foods that contribute to enamel staining.
