Home whitening

Home whitening is considered the safest teeth-whitening method in modern dentistry. The procedure received its name due to the nature of its application: all necessary steps are carried out at home.

At Avanta, for home whitening we use the Opalescence system, the best product that meets international standards and has undergone multiple tests.

It is a colorless gel based on different concentrations of carbamide and hydrogen peroxide (15% and 20%), as well as an individually made tray (a special protective mouthpiece).

The tray filled with gel should be placed on the teeth at home for 30 minutes to several hours, depending on the level of tooth sensitivity.

The duration of the home whitening course is 1-2 weeks.

The final result can be assessed after 2-3 weeks.

Advantages

Ease of use
Low dosage of active ingredients (ensures safe action)

Indications

Enamel discoloration
Age-related changes
Changes in enamel color caused by the use of “staining” products

Contraindications

Individual intolerance to components
Extensive caries
Tooth hypersensitivity
The presence of fillings and artificial crowns, especially on the front teeth, is considered a relative contraindication. The issue is that the whitening gel does not affect the color of fillings and crowns. After whitening, it may become necessary to replace them.
