Teeth Whitening – Easier than Ever!

There is nothing that displays self-confidence like a great smile. However, there are many who are a little hesitant to smile ‘completely’ in public due to teeth that are far from sparkling. However, the great news is that these are issues that can be easily and quickly resolved using the latest technologies in cosmetic dentistry employed by leading dental hospitals and dental clinics.

Why Discoloration Happens:

The darkening of teeth due to extrinsic stains (surface stains) can be due to many reasons like dental plaque, calculus, tobacco, paan-chewing, drinking coffee/tea, medications etc. Causes for intrinsic staining can be tooth decay, dental trauma, fluorosis, ageing etc. Various techniques are used by dental professionals for teeth whitening. Hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide is generally used during teeth whitening procedures.

The History of Teeth Whitening:

In cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening is the most requested procedure today. Interest in whiter teeth is not a new thing – people have been interested in gaining brighter smiles since ancient times. However, the teeth whitening methods recommended or adopted in the past, were nowhere close to the efficiency and speed of the teeth whitening methods available today. Historically, the teeth whitening methods were outright bizarre – for example, urine and goat milk was used by ancient Romans as teeth whitening agents! Things became a lot more scientific with time, with oxalic acid being proposed as a teeth whitening agent in1877. The first use of peroxide in teeth whitening was in 1884.
