Is teeth whitening good? Several methods need to be paid attention to

Everyone wants to have white teeth, especially those with yellow or black teeth. Now there are more and more technologies for teeth whitening, but everyone must be careful when choosing. Although it can have a good effect of whitening teeth, it also has some side effects.

1. Laser Teeth Whitening

Laser teeth whitening is a method of using the high energy of laser to catalyze hydrogen peroxide and utilize the oxidation principle to effectively remove pigments from the surface of teeth. Its indications include those with moderate tetracycline teeth, drug-induced discolored teeth, dental fluorosis, and those who want to whiten their teeth in a short period of time and who do not have periodontal disease or tooth decay.

We need to remind everyone that the biggest advantage of this teeth whitening program is that the treatment time is short and the whitening effect is excellent. However, you must seek professional evaluation before the operation to avoid varying degrees of sensitivity symptoms after treatment.

2. Toothpaste whitens teeth

Tooth cleaning powder can whiten and remove scale, inhibit dental plaque, prevent periodontal disease, etc., but it cannot be used for a long time because what is washed away is the enamel. Compared with ordinary whitening toothpaste, the concentration of bleaching ingredients in tooth cleaning powder is relatively high, so the effect is instantly obvious. However, too high a concentration will affect the structure of the teeth, causing decalcification and causing great damage to the teeth.

3. Beauty Porcelain Stickers

The whitening principle of cosmetic porcelain stickers is to first grind off a thin layer on the surface of the teeth, and then stick a thin porcelain piece with a thickness of only about 0.2mm on the surface of the teeth to achieve the purpose of whitening the teeth. It can effectively remove the unevenness or traces of repairs on the tooth surface, and also has a certain effect on correcting teeth.

However, it is worth noting that veneers are shaped using solid materials and then pasted on the teeth. There are problems such as strong toxicity of adhesives, excessive metal content, aging and falling off, all of which are harmful to teeth and even the body. Therefore, you must be careful in choosing the quality of the materials and must choose regular and qualified veneer materials. Secondly, if you press the patches close together and against your gums to avoid unsightly black lines between them, this may cause swollen and painful gums, or even damage the tooth roots, leading to gum atrophy, loose teeth, etc. Instead of whitening your teeth, this may cause damage.
