It’s normal for your teeth to become discoloured or dull over time. Factors such as age, certain foods and drinks, smoking, health conditions and medications can all contribute to tooth stains. Because of this, professional teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic treatment.

However, did you know there are several teeth whitening methods? Keep reading to learn more about the benefits of laser teeth whitening compared to other methods.

The Laser Whitening Process

Our cosmetic dentists in Parramatta use laser teeth whitening to achieve amazing results in approximately 30 to 60 minutes; here’s what you can expect from the procedure:

  1. We’ll give you a pair of protective glasses to wear during the procedure.
  2. Then, we will apply peroxide gel to a mouthguard and place it in your mouth.
  3. Next, we direct a laser beam at your teeth; the laser heats the peroxide gel, causing it to activate the whitening properties as it penetrates your tooth enamel and breaks down the stains.
  4. This process is repeated until you achieve your desired results.
  5. Lastly, we will rinse the bleaching gel from your mouth and let you see the results.

To ensure your safety and oral health, it’s essential to have an experienced dental professional whiten your teeth.
