How Do You Get Laser Tooth Bleaching?
Laser tooth bleaching is a relatively simple procedure. The gums are protected from the bleaching gel with a coating of sealing wax and cotton gauze. The gel is applied to the teeth and exposed to a laser light that activates the bleach. It then breaks down the molecules in the stain and allows it to be removed from the tooth. Consider laser tooth bleaching especially for stains that do not respond to regular whitening gel. These include stains that are gray or very dark, especially those caused by tetracycline and other medication. Receive laser tooth bleaching in the office from the dentist or hygienist rather than at home. This is a good method for patients who are not disciplined enough to apply bleaching gel at home each night. Achieve the final results in a single office visit rather than the three-week period that conventional bleaching normally requires. This makes laser bleaching a good choice for patients with limited time or patience. Keep your jaws closed for about 2 hours.
