BLEACHING - TEETH WHITENING

Teeth Whitening or teeth bleaching is a treatment process that restores stained or discoloured teeth or single tooth to a healthy, natural color. Don't be misled by unproven and ineffective over-the-counter teeth whitening solutions. Agrawal's Multispeciality Dental Clinic centre is equipped with ZOOM-ADVANCED POWER-the world’s no1 teeth whitening system. The ZOOM –ADVANCED POWER is the most powerful and safest bleaching system which uses a sodium arc bulb for the process. The translucent bleaching gel is applied to the teeth and a special activating light source is used to activate the crystals to absorb the energy from the light and penetrate the teeth enamel to increase the lightening effect on the teeth. The length of time in the cosmetic dentist's chair depends on the degree of discoloration you have, but one hour is common. Another light source used at Agrawal's Multispeciality Dental Clinic centre for teeth whitening is a high powered LED LAMP. It is relatively less powerful bleaching system but is comparatively inexpensive.

• Frequently drinking coffee, tea, or colas causes teeth discoloration.
• Some antibiotics may darken developing teeth in children.
• Aging - The dentin underneath the enamel of a tooth gradually darkens with age causing teeth coloration.
• Use of tobacco products also causes generalized teeth discoloration.
• Accidents - If a tooth has been traumatized, sometimes the nerve will gradually "die," and the tooth becomes dark causing tooth discoloration.
• After Root Canal Therapy, a tooth will generally darken because of loos of nerve supply causing tooth discoloration.
