Discoloration of teeth over time can negatively affect a person&#8217;s self-confidence. Today, teeth whitening applications have become one of the most popular ways to have a more aesthetic and healthy smile.<\/p><h3>Causes of Discoloration of Teeth<\/h3><p>There are many reasons why the natural color of the teeth may change:<\/p><p>Food and drink consumption: Products such as coffee, tea, red wine and cigarettes cause staining of the enamel.<\/p><p>Aging: Over time, the enamel layer becomes thinner and the color of the dentin becomes more pronounced.<\/p><p>Medication use: Permanent discoloration of teeth can occur, especially during antibiotics or certain treatments.<\/p><p>Inadequate oral care: Plaque accumulation on teeth that are not brushed and flossed regularly increases staining.<\/p><h3>Teeth Whitening Methods<br \/>1. Office Type (Clinic Environment) Teeth Whitening<\/h3><p>Professional equipment and special whitening gels are used.<\/p><p>A visible whitening is usually achieved in one session.<\/p><p>Ideal for people who want faster and more durable results.<\/p><h3>2. Home Teeth Whitening<\/h3><p>A whitening gel is applied into the transparent trays prepared individually by the physician.<\/p><p>The patient uses the trays at home for a certain period of time.<\/p><p>Results appear within a few weeks.<\/p><h3>3. Combined Method<\/h3><p>It is both applied in the clinic, which provides a fast effect, and supported by plaques used at home.<\/p><p>It is preferred for a longer lasting and effective result.<\/p><h3>Is Teeth Whitening Safe?<\/h3><p>Teeth whitening procedures applied under expert control are safe and effective. Wrong products or unconscious applications can damage tooth enamel. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to get professional support.<\/p><h3>Who is not suitable for?<\/h3><p>Individuals under 16 years of age<\/p><p>Pregnant and lactating women<\/p><p>Patients with caries, advanced gum disease or enamel cracks<\/p><p>The procedure may not be suitable for these people and the necessary treatments should be done first.<\/p><p>Things to Consider After Whitening<\/p><p>Avoid colored foods (tea, coffee, red wine, cigarettes, etc.) for the first 48 hours.<\/p><p>Regular brushing and flossing should become a habit.<\/p><h3>Dentist checks should be made at regular intervals.<\/h3><p>Teeth whitening is an application that aesthetically strengthens one&#8217;s smile, increases self-confidence and is safe when done professionally. For a healthier and whiter smile, it will always be the best choice to get the support of a specialist.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Smile is one of the most important elements that make a person stand out in both aesthetic and social life.
