Your dentist will first examine your
teeth and gums and discuss the procedure best suited to your
individual needs. Any cavities or gum problems must be treated before
bleaching can begin.
The in-office method generally takes
one to three hours and results in an immediate noticeable change.
For the at-home method, special
molds will be made of your teeth, used to make custom-fitting flexible
trays holding the bleaching gel comfortably in your mouth.
When you get your bleaching trays,
you'll receive instructions about wearing them. These must be
carefully followed. Only the materials provided by the dentist can be
safely used.
After completing the treatment, your
teeth will be checked by your dental provider to discuss the results.
