Bleaching, often known as teeth whitening, is an easy, non-invasive dental procedure that is used to alter the shade of natural tooth enamel and is a great way to enhance the look of your teeth.

There are several techniques to whiten teeth because this is now one of the most common cosmetic concern among patients. The most commonly used technique is employing a home teeth-whitening equipment which will significantly whiten teeth. The replacement of any outdated fillings, crowns, etc. should be carefully considered because tooth whitening only works on natural tooth enamel. Any restorations that need to be replaced after bleaching will be done so they match the freshly bleached teeth.

Teeth whitening is not a long-term solution. If you smoke, consume coffee, tea, or alcohol, you will need a touch-up every few years.
