A brighter smile, with professional supervision

Teeth whitening is one of the most sought-after cosmetic dental treatments by patients who want to improve the color of their smile without changing the shape of their teeth.

However, not all teeth respond the same way, nor do all patients require the same treatment plan. That's why at Doctor Dent Sitges, we conduct a preliminary assessment to check the condition of the enamel, gums, existing restorations, and the type of tooth staining before recommending any treatment.

Our goal is not to achieve an artificial white, but to lighten the tone of your teeth in a balanced way, respecting your oral health and seeking a natural result.

When might teeth whitening be indicated?

We can assess teeth whitening if you want to improve:

  • Teeth that have yellowed or darkened over time.

  • External stains caused by coffee, tea, red wine or tobacco.

  • A dull or lackluster smile.

  • The color of your teeth before a cosmetic treatment.

  • The final result after orthodontics.

  • The overall harmony of the smile without resorting to more invasive treatments.

Teeth whitening does not change the shape, size, or position of your teeth. If, in addition to color, you want to improve proportions, wear, gaps, or tooth shape, it may be necessary to consider other cosmetic dental treatments, such as dental veneers or digital smile design.

How we perform teeth whitening at Doctor Dent Sitges

Each treatment begins with a dental examination and an aesthetic assessment of your smile. We analyze the initial color, the condition of the enamel and gums, and the presence of restorations to determine if whitening is a suitable option.

Next, we explain what results you can expect in your case, what care you should follow, and whether it is advisable to perform a prior dental hygiene to improve the surface on which the treatment will act.

The process can be adapted to the patient's needs, always with professional supervision and clear guidelines to reduce risks, control sensitivity and maintain the result for longer.

What results can be achieved?

The result of teeth whitening depends on the initial color of the teeth, the type of stains, the patient's habits, and the individual response of the enamel.

In many cases, the treatment results in a brighter, cleaner, and more radiant smile. However, it's important to understand that the goal should be a natural result that complements each patient's smile, not an extreme or artificial white.

It's also important to keep in mind that fillings, crowns, veneers, or old restorations don't whiten in the same way as natural teeth. Therefore, if there are any visible restorations, the dentist should assess whether they will need to be adjusted or replaced after treatment.

Can it cause tooth sensitivity?

Tooth sensitivity can occur temporarily after whitening, especially in patients with more sensitive enamel, receding gums, or a history of previous sensitivity.

For this reason, at Doctor Dent Sitges we assess each case before starting treatment and explain the necessary measures to reduce discomfort. In some patients, it may be advisable to prepare the mouth beforehand, adjust the treatment protocol, or use specific products to control sensitivity.

If you have regular tooth sensitivity, it doesn't necessarily mean you can't have your teeth whitened, but you do need a more thorough evaluation before starting.

Care after teeth whitening

After treatment, it is important to follow the clinical team's instructions to protect the result and avoid further staining during the first few days.

We recommend maintaining careful oral hygiene, avoiding tobacco, and temporarily reducing the consumption of highly pigmented foods and beverages, such as coffee, tea, red wine, red fruits, dark sauces, or colored carbonated drinks.

In the medium and long term, the duration of the result will depend on your habits, your oral hygiene, your regular check-ups and the maintenance recommended by the dentist.

Brighten your smile with a professional, safe, and personalized teeth whitening treatment.
