How to whiten the teeth ?
The dentist begins by covering the
patient's lips and gums to ensure that only the teeth are exposed to light. He also places
cheek spacers and cotton balls inside the mouth cavity to keep it open. He then applies a
hydrogen peroxide gel to the surface of the teeth and the exclusive lamp is activated with
its light directed at the teeth.
The light emitted by the lamp acts on the hydrogen peroxide gel to break it down. The thin
layer covering the teeth called the pellicle is also dissolved. The oxygen is then released
and penetrates the enamel and the underlying dentin layer of the teeth to whiten the dyes
and the teeth.
This process lasts about 15 minutes and the lamp is turned off. The dentist then removes the
gel cover and applies a new layer of hydrogen peroxide gel. The light is redirected to the
teeth to continue the whitening process.
Finalement, le dentiste applique un gel spécial au fluorure sur les dents pour minimiser la
sensibilité.
Finally, the dentist applies a special fluoride gel to the teeth to minimize sensitivity.
