What is Tooth Whitening?
Tooth whitening, also known as teeth bleaching or tooth brightening, is a cosmetic dental procedure used to lighten the color of the teeth and remove stains.
The whitening process typically involves the use of a whitening agent, such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide which breaks down and removes stains and discoloration on teeth’s enamel layer. There are two primary methods for tooth whitening:
In-Office Whitening
The procedure is performed by a dental professional in a dental clinic. It involves the application of a high-concentration whitening gel to the teeth, often in combination with special lights or lasers that activate the process. A single in-office whitening session can produce results that last for years.
At-Home Whitening
This at-home tooth whitening approach calls for custom-made mouthpieces and a lower concentration of whitening gel to be used at home by the patient as guided by the dentist. The treatment plan may last from two weeks up to several months as desired results are gradually achieved.
Tooth-whitening treatments can effectively remove common stains caused by things like coffee, tea, and red wine. They may or may not help with other discoloration types like those caused by injury or medication.
At Dr Shashi’s Dental Studio, our expert dentists, specializing in Tooth Whitening, collaborate closely with patients to comprehend their desired outcomes and tailor a treatment plan that prioritizes overall dental health. It’s crucial to consult a dentist for a thorough examination and an honest evaluation of your dental condition.

Ideal Candidates for Tooth Whitening
People who are unhappy with the color or sparkle of their teeth most often want to have dental bleaching or teeth whitening done. Teeth bleaching products containing peroxide are safe and effective when used under the supervision of a dentist, who can ensure that they’re being applied properly.
The tooth bleaching process should only be performed by a dentist, not someone who is not trained as an oral health care provider.
The long-term effects of high concentrations (greater than 6%) of bleaching agents on tooth structures such as the dental pulp, dentine, enamel, and oral soft tissues are not completely understood by a nonpractitioner.
Because of the potential health risks involved, it is recommended that patients talk to their dentists before attempting home bleaching with over-the-counter products.
Ideal candidates for Tooth Whitening are –
Desire to have Healthy Teeth: Candidates should have healthy teeth with no active dental issues, such as cavities or gum disease, as these conditions should be addressed before whitening.
Desire Whiter Teeth: Individuals who are dissatisfied with the color of their teeth and wish to lighten them for a brighter and more aesthetically pleasing smile.
Non-Smokers or Willing to Quit: Non-smokers are better candidates, as smoking can contribute to tooth staining. However, candidates willing to quit or reduce smoking can also benefit from whitening.
Minimal Restorations: Candidates with minimal dental restorations like fillings and crowns in visible areas of their smile, as whitening agents may not significantly impact the color of restorations.
Realistic Expectations: Those who have realistic expectations about the outcome of the whitening procedure and understand its limitations. Whitening may not dramatically change the color of severely discolored teeth.
Commit to Aftercare: Candidates willing to follow post-whitening aftercare recommendations to maintain the results, such as good oral hygiene practices and avoiding staining foods and drinks.
No Allergies or Sensitivities: Individuals without known allergies or sensitivities to the whitening products or their components.
Consultation with a Dentist: It is advisable to consult with a dentist or dental professional to evaluate your specific dental condition and discuss the most suitable whitening options.

What are the major factors causing tooth discolouration?
From the everyday habits we form, our teeth can easily become discolored and stained. This leads to aesthetic issues as well as inadequate dental hygiene that could potentially lead to more serious health concerns later in life if untreated. Here are some major factors that cause tooth discoloring –
Smoking habits/Tobacco intake
Extrinsic stains
Frequent consumption of tea, coffee, wine, and cold drinks(cola)
High consumption of fluoride during childhood
Teeth damage due to trauma or accident
The shade of the dentin which depends on genetics
Pharmacological Influences such as tetracycline, Minocycline, iron supplement stains
Systemic, congenital or metabolic conditions such as erythroblastosis fetalis, fluorosis, enamel defects
Advantages of Tooth Whitening

It help to conceal the signs of aging and maintain a more youthful appearance.
It can easily restore the natural color of teeth that have yellowed over time.
Tooth whitening procedures, when performed by dental professionals or using dentist-recommended products, are safe and reliable.
Many tooth whitening methods provide rapid results, allowing you to achieve a whiter smile in a relatively short time.
Treatment plans can be tailored to your specific needs and preferences, providing a personalized approach to teeth whitening.
Tooth whitening is a non-invasive and relatively painless procedure that doesn't require altering the structure of the teeth.
Tooth whitening is often an affordable cosmetic dental option compared to more extensive procedures.
How To Prepare For Dental Bleaching Procedure?
Prior to your dental clinic appointment, ensure you brush your teeth thoroughly to remove any residual food particles and to maintain fresh breath.
Note - If you are dealing with health conditions such as hypertension, diabetes (which may affect blood clotting), or any other illnesses, be sure to communicate these to your dental healthcare provider.
There is no specific preparation needed for the dental bleaching procedure.
Note - If you have any allergies, particularly to medications, dental materials, or any other substances, please inform your dentist.
How Is Dental Bleaching Procedure Done?
The teeth whitening procedure commences by applying a whitening gel, typically containing 25% to 40% hydrogen peroxide, onto the teeth.
During the procedure, a specialized heating lamp is directed at the teeth, with intermittent reapplication of the whitening gel.
In some cases, our dental practitioners may opt for a laser whitening technique, which expedites and enhances the whitening process.
To ensure safety, a dental barrier is employed throughout the teeth whitening procedure, shielding your gums, lips, and tongue from exposure to the whitening gel.
What are the tooth whitening treatments we provides?
Light Activated System
Light-activated teeth whitening systems are a popular method for achieving quicker and often more dramatic teeth whitening results in dental offices or with at-home kits.
Application of Whitening Gel: A whitening gel containing a peroxide-based bleaching agent (usually hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide) is applied to the surface of your teeth. This gel is specially formulated to break down and remove stains and discoloration on the enamel.
Activation with Light: After applying the whitening gel, a specialized light source is directed to your teeth. It can be an LED (light-emitting diode) lamp or a halogen lamp. The light is often in the blue spectrum and is designed to activate and enhance the action of the whitening gel. It helps accelerate the chemical reaction that breaks down stains and lifts them from the tooth's surface.
Chemically Activated System (Opalescence Boost)
Opalescence Boost is an in-office, chemically activated whitening treatment that offers results in less than an hour. Opalescence Boost is an in-office, chemically activated whitening treatment that offers results in less than an hour.
Opalescence Boost uses a unique formula that, unlike other teeth-whitening systems, does not require soaking in chemicals or the use of ultraviolet light.
It also contains potassium nitrate and fluoride, which strengthen enamel and decrease sensitivity while increasing cavity prevention.
Opalescence Boosts offers a unique syringe-to-syringe mixing system that ensures freshness and equal distribution of product. Its distinct red color makes it easier to see when applying, so you get more even results.
Chemically Activated System (Home Bleaching)
Tooth whitening can be done at home and is highly convenient. The dentist prepares special bleaching trays for each patient based on the individual's needs and specifications. The patient then fills his or her mouth with a gel made from teeth-whitening chemicals that he or she can buy over-the-counter, puts the tray in place, and leaves it there until instructed otherwise by the dentist.
Laser Activated System (Laser Teeth Whitening)
Laser-activated teeth whitening is a dental procedure that combines a high-concentration whitening gel with laser or light energy to accelerate and enhance the teeth whitening process, producing quicker and more noticeable results than traditional methods. Consulting with a dentist is important to determine if it's suitable for your specific needs.
Instructions to follow
Before inserting the tray into your mouth, ensure that you have thoroughly brushed and flossed your teeth.
Apply a small drop of whitening gel to the tray at each tooth site that requires whitening.
Seat the tray firmly and completely onto your teeth.
Any excess gel can be wiped away using a toothbrush or a clean finger.
The trays should be worn overnight for the recommended duration.
Remember to remove the tray before eating.
Following the bleaching process, brush and rinse your teeth to remove any remaining gel.
You'll have enough bleaching material to treat both your upper and lower teeth for 1-2 weeks.
After removing the trays, rinse them with cool water to remove any remaining material, and store them in their case. It's important to keep the trays away from direct sunlight and heat, as excessive heat can cause them to melt. Avoid leaving them in your car, especially during warm summer months.
Please note that home bleaching is a gradual process, and visible results may take 3-4 weeks to become noticeable. The degree of whitening achieved may be somewhat less than what can be achieved with office whitening systems.
What precautions to follow after having a tooth whitening procedure?
Avoid Staining Substances
After tooth whitening, we always advise our patients to avoid foods and beverages (staining substances) that can stain their teeth (e.g., coffee, tea, red wine) for a few days to maintain the whiteness of their teeth.
Maintaining Results
The duration of tooth whitening results can vary depending on your lifestyle and habits. Proper oral hygiene, including regular brushing and flossing, as well as avoiding stain-causing substances, can help prolong the effects.
Sensitivity
Some individuals may experience temporary tooth sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures immediately after the procedure. This sensitivity usually subsides within a day or two.
Dental Professional Guidance
If you experience any concerns or issues after the procedure, such as excessive sensitivity or uneven whitening, consult your dental professional for guidance and potential solutions.
What is the the recovery time for Tooth Whitening?
The recovery time for tooth whitening is typically very short, and many people experience little to no downtime. In most cases, there is no need for a specific recovery period.
Are there any side effects of tooth whitening?
Some patients may experience a mild sore throat or white patches on the gums after the treatment.
Most cases of sensitivity are only temporary and resolve themselves within a few days.
Some individuals may experience mild gum irritation or discomfort if the whitening gel comes into contact with the gums. Dental professionals take precautions to minimize this risk.
In some cases, teeth may whiten unevenly, resulting in areas that are brighter or less bright than others.
FAQ
Frequently Ask Questions
There are 2 types of tooth stains – 1. INTRINSIC STAINS 2. EXTRINSIC STAINS
INTRINSIC STAINS
Intrinsic stains are formed from within the tooth, so they can’t be removed by brushing or flossing. Sometimes bleaching may not work either. Some of the intrinsic causes for tooth discoloration are injury to teeth, taking certain medications during tooth formation (such as tetracycline) and ingesting too much fluoride.
EXTRINSIC STAINS
Extrinsic stains occur when a substance penetrates into the tooth enamel. Some sources of extrinsic stains are cigarettes, cigars, paan masala , coffee and tea. This type of staining may sometimes be removed by good brushing habits or professional oral prophylaxis (scaling).
Teeth whitening treatments do not harm tooth enamel, but it’s worth noting that the acidity of the materials used in teeth whitening can affect the teeth.
Teeth whitening is suitable for anyone. Opalescence whitening treatment effectively addresses tooth discoloration caused by factors such as aging, dietary choices, smoking, medications, or dental trauma.
The duration of teeth bleaching effects varies based on the method used. Most in-office treatments last from 6 months to up to 3 years, depending on an individual’s lifestyle. The effectiveness of the treatment can be compromised if you consume teeth-staining foods without proper oral hygiene.
At Dr, Shashi’s Dental Studio, we employ advanced technology and state-of-the-art equipment for teeth whitening treatments, which do not cause any short-term or long-term harm to the tooth, enamel, or dentin.
Generally no, but it can be uncomfortable for those with sensitive teeth. Some methods use peroxide, potentially causing bleaching sensitivity or enamel damage.
- In office bleaching
- Vital bleaching
- Non-Vital bleaching (Also known as walking bleach)
- At-home bleaching.
After the initial procedure, it’s typically recommended to undergo another tooth whitening session approximately every two years. Following the second procedure, the effects can last for up to seven years. Lifestyle and dietary adjustments, as mentioned earlier, can extend this timeframe.
While achieving teeth whitening solely through natural products can be challenging, maintaining professionally whitened teeth can benefit from dietary and lifestyle adjustments, such as:
- Using straws when consuming dark beverages like coffee, tea, colas, and red wine.
- Avoiding smoking.
- Consistent brushing and flossing.
- Including a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, particularly strawberries and pineapples.
- Abstaining from chewing tobacco and paan.
- Chewing xylitol-based gums to stimulate saliva flow and combat surface stains on teeth.
- Practicing oil pulling with extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil to help eliminate stains.
- Exploring the potential tooth-shade-enhancing effect of pomelo peels containing citric acid through gentle rubbing against tooth surfaces.”
