Laser teeth whitening is one of the fastest procedures to beautify a smile. A beautiful smile gives confidence, improves the image and rejuvenates a person.
Laser teeth whitening is a quick, safe and effective dental aesthetic procedure.
When whitening teeth with a laser, a deep whitening effect is achieved – the laser-activated whitening agent reaches not only enamel, but also dentin.
During laser teeth whitening, gum protection is applied to prevent gum damage, and the teeth are covered with a special whitening gel, which is then activated with a laser.
The laser, acting as an activator, enhances the effect of the whitening tooth gel, as a result of which the maximum effect is obtained in a short time. Due to the relatively short time of the whitening gel application, the risk of damage to the tooth tissues is reduced. After the laser whitening procedure, the teeth may be a little more sensitive, but the increased sensitivity of the teeth passes after just a few days. The only inconvenience is that for some time after this procedure, colored and carbonated drinks, colored food, smoking should be avoided.

Teeth whitening does not harm the teeth, but all means must be used with moderation and in accordance with the doctor’s instructions.
