What is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a safe aesthetic dental procedure that dissolves organic discolorations in the enamel and dentin layers using hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide gel that releases oxygen, lightening tone differences. In a clinical setting, light or laser-assisted power bleaching can be performed, as well as home-type treatments with custom trays.
At Dentasay Oral and Dental Health Clinic, teeth whitening is planned through a standardized process that includes digital color analysis, pre-treatment to reduce enamel sensitivity, gel application according to Opalescence or Philips Zoom protocols, and fluoride-assisted finishing stages.

Who can undergo teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is applied to adult patients with good basic oral health, limited restorations, and no cracks on the enamel surface; combined protocols may be considered for intrinsic discoloration due to antibiotics during childhood.
How is teeth whitening performed?
First, tartar cleaning is done, gums are isolated with a protective barrier, then whitening gel of selected concentration is applied and activated with LED/UV light for 3-4 cycles; after shade control, a gel containing fluoride or potassium nitrate is applied.
Does teeth whitening damage enamel?
No. Whitening gels applied with the correct concentration and under physician supervision do not disrupt the enamel crystal structure; fluoride and calcium phosphate content applied after the procedure strengthens the enamel again.
How long does teeth whitening last?
When the “white diet” is followed for the first 48 hours after the clinical session and smoking/consumption habits are controlled, the whiteness lasts 12-18 months; if necessary, a 15-minute reminder session once a year is recommended.
How long does teeth whitening take?
In-office teeth whitening basically takes 45-60 minutes; if tartar cleaning and sensitivity preparation are added beforehand, the total appointment time can extend to 90 minutes. An extra 1 day of laboratory time is planned for preparing home trays.
What are the advantages of teeth whitening?
- Rapid brightness increase and measurable shade difference
- Minimally invasive, needle-free, and painless procedure
- Sustainable results with home kits
- Confident smile, advantage in photo and video shoots
What should post-teeth whitening care be like?
Avoiding dark-colored foods and smoking for the first 48 hours, brushing twice a day with a sensitivity-reducing toothpaste, using a night guard if there is a teeth grinding habit, and coming for check-ups every 6 months increase the permanence of whiteness.
