A smile is happiness right under your nose

Each of us desires a beautiful, white, and radiant smile. It enhances our personality and helps us feel more confident. Today, technology allows us to achieve the perfect smile through laser teeth whitening with the Biolase Epic X.
Why choose teeth whitening?
Laser teeth whitening is the most painless, non-invasive, and fast cosmetic dental procedure that instantly gives you a brighter, more beautiful smile. Over time, teeth can undergo changes in their natural color due to factors such as aging, genetics, consumption of staining foods and drinks, dental trauma, certain medications, or smoking.
Using the Biolase Epic X laser, teeth whitening can be performed quickly. This advanced technology is one of the easiest and most effective ways to enhance the appearance of your smile. The procedure is also recommended for more serious aesthetic concerns, with visible results even in cases of heavily stained or yellowed teeth.
Steps of a Laser Teeth Whitening Treatment
Before starting the whitening procedure, the dentist will perform a specialized consultation to assess the condition of the teeth. Additionally, a professional cleaning is required beforehand to remove bacterial plaque. Only after this step can the actual treatment begin.
In the next stage, the gums are protected with a special resin applied over them. Then, a whitening gel containing 35% hydrogen peroxide is applied to the teeth. The final step involves using the laser, whose heat activates the substance in the gel and initiates the whitening process.
How long does laser teeth whitening take?
This procedure is incredibly fast and effective.The entire treatment takes about one hour, from the application of the protective resin to the completion of the procedure. The laser is used for about one minute on each dental arch.
What do you feel during the laser treatment?
During the procedure, the patient may feel the warmth produced by the laser, but it does not cause any pain or discomfort. After the treatment, a temporary increase in tooth sensitivity may occur, which varies from person to person. In such cases, the dentist may recommend a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory.
Contraindications for teeth whitening
Not everyone is a candidate for teeth whitening, regardless of the method used. Whitening is not recommended for patients with enamel defects, cracks, or dental abrasions. It is also not advised after prosthetic restorations or endodontic treatments, especially on front teeth.
Teeth whitening can be done through advanced laser treatment or with special whitening agents that can also be used at home. However, these should never be used without a dentist’s recommendation. Any whitening treatment used without professional guidance can lead to serious aesthetic issues and, later, higher costs to correct them.
What are the results of laser teeth whitening?
The Biolase Epic X laser treatment is incredibly effective, even in more challenging cases involving heavily yellowed or visibly stained teeth. After the whitening procedure, the new tooth color will stabilize within 48 hours to two weeks. That’s why it’s recommended to avoid foods and drinks that can stain the teeth during the first 48 hours post-treatment.
It’s worth noting that teeth whitening is not permanent. The bright appearance and beautiful color of the teeth must be maintained through a rigorous personal hygiene routine. To help patients maintain their radiant smile, they will receive whitening trays and gel to use at home, following the dentist’s instructions.
What do patients say about laser whitening?
“I was the most hesitant person when it came to teeth whitening, even though I had yellow teeth something I inherited genetically and also suffered from tooth sensitivity. That was until Dr. Alexandra Majorosi suggested I try laser teeth whitening, and I was pleasantly surprised by the immediate results. I experienced heightened sensitivity for one day, but it was totally worth it. After the whitening, I also followed a treatment for the sensitivity I had before, and now, one month later, my teeth feel better than they did before the procedure and much whiter.”
