• Did you feel amazed at how every celebrity is able to get their teeth so whiter and brighter?
  • Did you know that cosmetic dentistry provides a solid option with teeth whitening/ bleaching procedures that helps improve the appearance of your smile?
  • Did you know many celebrities have a tooth-related secret: they cover their teeth with thin sheets of resin or porcelain called veneers?
  • Do you know that homemade products work well for everyday whitening, but achieving a red-carpet-ready shade of white requires professional whitening treatments?

The most frequently requested cosmetic dentistry procedure, teeth whitening helps achieve whiter, brighter teeth. Teeth whitening can be very effective in lightening the natural colour of your teeth without removing any tooth surfaces if the treatment follows the safety protocols. However, consulting only a board-certified cosmetic dentist with ample experience in teeth whitening/ bleaching treatment is inevitable.

We at Smilecare Kaesthetics in Bengaluru offer various teeth whitening options to ensure a quick, easy, safe, and effective treatment. As a result, we helped hundreds and hundreds of patients dealing with stained teeth, as having a clean bright smile makes you feel more confident and attractive at the same time.

What is Teeth Whitening / Teeth Bleaching?

You may wonder, looking at posters in malls, photos in magazines, or videos on social media, how celebrities are able to flaunt their whiter, brighter, and healthier teeth. Yes, it is pretty easy and accessible to commoners with teeth cleaning/ whitening treatments that we perform in office-based systems where products containing highly concentrated bleaching agents are applied under board-certified dentist supervision.

One must note that teeth whitening or bleaching can lighten your teeth’s existing colour/shade, but it cannot make a complete colour change. And this is the most significant aspect of the cosmetic whitening procedure, as it does not remove any of the tooth surfaces.

Key points to be noted about Teeth Whitening / Teeth Bleaching:

  • The teeth bleaching/ whitening procedure involves applying hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide-based gel on teeth surfaces.
  • Professional tooth whitening consists of strong bleaching agents and special UV lights to brighten teeth quickly and effectively.
  • When the manufacturer’s instructions are followed, there are no risks to your teeth or gums involved with the teeth whitening procedure.
  • Yellow teeth can be whitened entirely with teeth whitening technologies at the dental setup.
  • The dentist will advise and prescribe the appropriate teeth whitening method based on your extent of yellow teeth and treatment goals.

Causes of tooth discoloration:

Intrinsic stains: It is sometimes called internal staining that can be attributed to factors such as genetics, age, antibiotics, high levels of fluoride, and developmental disorders and can start before the tooth has erupted.

Extrinsic stains: Extrinsic or external stains can occur due to lifestyles or environmental factors, such as smoking, pigments in beverages and foods, antibiotics, and metals such as iron or copper.

Why would I need my Teeth Whitening?

Having a teeth whitening procedure requires when you mark your teeth as discoloured, stained, or yellowish. Several factors can cause stained teeth, and both intrinsic and extrinsic accelerators are considered while evaluating your stained tooth status. However, you must share every detail with your dentist during the introductory consultation to chalk out the best method to meet the desired white-teeth goal. Lifestyle factors, such as smoking, alcoholism, and eating food containing high sugar, turmeric or tea, coffee, red wine, also play a crucial role in staining teeth.

Calculus and tartar also cause stained teeth. In addition, some patients may have stained teeth caused by certain antibiotics, which may raise the request for teeth whitening procedures.

For celebrity-level whiteness, we at Dr. Karishma Aesthetics will usually employ one of three different procedures:
  1. Professional Whitening Treatments: If you want to achieve a red-carpet-ready shade of white, professional whitening treatment is an available option. Professional in-office whitening treatments use strong bleaches and special UV lights to brighten teeth quickly and effectively. It gives your teeth several shades whiter than any over-the-counter product can manage.
  2. Veneers:  Veneers covering the front surfaces of your teeth are an excellent way to get impressive, natural off-white teeth that look impeccably white. It is a layer of material placed over a tooth that improves the aesthetics of your smile. Our technicians use high-quality dental materials, like tooth-coloured composite or porcelain, to create them. Dental veneers are a cosmetic option that can conceal a wide range of aesthetic imperfections, including chips, cracks, gaps, tooth discoloration, etc. 
  3. Dental Crowns: A crown is a cap for damaged tooths. Professional teeth whitening and veneers produce excellent results, but only some patients are eligible candidates for them. However, a dental crown may be a better choice if your teeth are worn or cracked or your tooth may have a cavity too big for a filling. Your dentist recommends a crown as the best alternative to achieve brighter teeth because it covers the entire tooth surface above the gumline. 
How Much Does Tooth Whitening Cost in Bangalore?

Teeth whitening is wholly and solely a customized procedure, so that the cost may vary from patient to patient. Several factors are considered when putting the cost of a tooth whitening procedure. First, one must have a written cost estimate before proceeding with the treatment. The cost of teeth cleaning might be influenced by various factors such as the state of staining, the desired whitening goal, clinic location, the dentist’s expertise, and the technique/method used to perform the treatment. Laser whitening will be more expensive than professional bleaching/ cleaning in Bangalore.

Measures to Keep Teeth White:
  • Practice healthy dental care
  • Get teeth scaling once in 6-12 months
  • Avoiding foods/beverages that stain teeth, like black coffee/tea, and aerated drinks.
