In-Office Teeth Whitening – Achieve a Radiant Smile Instantly
Would you like your teeth to be 7–8 shades whiter in just one hour? It’s possible with professional in-office teeth whitening at 360 Dental Clinic. This quick and safe treatment is carried out under the supervision of experienced professionals, ensuring no harm to your gums or teeth while delivering dazzling results.
Why Choose Teeth Whitening?
The color of your teeth is influenced by pigments in the enamel and dentin. Over time, these pigments can darken due to factors such as:
- Age-related discoloration
- Smoking
- Consumption of stain-causing foods and drinks (e.g., coffee, tea, red wine, beetroot, turmeric)
- Tartar or plaque build-up
Professional teeth whitening removes these stains effectively, restoring the natural brightness of your smile.
What Is In-Office Teeth Whitening?
In-office teeth whitening involves applying a professional-grade whitening gel or bleaching agent to the teeth and activating it using a special blue LED lamp (Beyond II Ultra). This process is not only quick but also gentle, achieving visible results up to 7–8 shades brighter teeth in just one session.
In-Office Whitening Process
-
Initial Consultation and Examination
- The dentist assesses the condition of your teeth and discusses your desired results. If necessary, tartar is removed during a dental cleaning before the treatment begins.
-
Gum Protection
- A special protective barrier is applied to shield the gums during the procedure.
-
Application of Whitening Gel
- A high-quality whitening gel is carefully applied to the teeth.
-
Activation with LED Lamp
- The gel is activated using the Beyond II Ultra blue LED light, which accelerates the whitening process by breaking down stain molecules.
-
Reviewing Results
- After treatment, the gel is removed, and the immediate results of your brighter, whiter smile are revealed.
