Teeth whitening is a treatment which aims to turn dark teeth lighter, removing the pigmentation that exists in them through whitening agents in the form of gel.
It is an aesthetic treatment which offers a more harmonious smile quickly and without causing any damage to the teeth and without the need for surgery.
Through the use of a whitening gel composed of Hydrogen Peroxide or Carbamide Peroxide that comes into contact with the teeth surface, it is possible to carry out the whitening process.
Currently, teeth whitening is one of the most sought after treatments at Prime Dental Clinic. Our age and the routines we keep tend to cause our teeth to lose their natural color, but we can return it with this treatment!
This treatment can be performed:

The main reason our patients seek teeth whitening treatments is aesthetics.
At Prime Dental Clinic we believe that everyone deserves a confident smile and this treatment allows you to get one – quickly and comfortably!
Teeth whitening always brings results. There may be differences on the results depending on the patient’s teeth, diet, age and hygienic habits, but there will always be noticeable results.
When done at a Dental Clinic, accompanied by Dentists specialized in Teeth Whitening, the treatment has very little risk of bringing additional complications.
Our whitening equipment is Philips Zoom – a high-quality product that scrupulously complies with all European Union standards.
To make sure that the treatment has the best possible result, we start each consultation by analyzing the patient’s complete Oral Condition.
Depending on the patient’s condition and habits, the teeth whitening results can last up to 6 years without the need for additional visits to the dentist.
There are several types of teeth whitening treatments that can be used depending on the patients’ expectations, their present condition, and the dentist’s recommendations.
The treatments carried out in clinic allows the use of a more concentrated type of whitening agent, than the ones used at home.
We recommend this treatment for patients who have some difficulty using the molds at home due to strong vomit reflex, or patients looking for faster results.
The presence of a qualified professional is a requirement in these treatments. He or she will guarantee the complete isolation of all soft tissues such as lips and tongue.
The gel should only come into contact with the tooth’s surface. After an hour of treatment, the patient will immediately notice changes in the color of their smile.
Internal Whitening is another treatment carried out in a Clinic, on patients who have previously undergone an Endodontic treatment (devitalization) that has caused a darkening of the teeth.
Unlike other teeth whitening treatments, the Internal solution is applied in a unitary way – applied only to one tooth at the time. We place the whitening gel inside the tooth’s pulp chamber, and the results will be noticeable in the space of 2 to 3 days.
Because of the way the treatment is administered, this is the whitening solution with the longest lasting results.

This is the most common whitening treatment.
The Dentist, specialized in Teeth Whitening, will deliver 2 molds, uniquely designed for the patient, so that the treatment can be carried out at home.
In most cases we ask our patients to apply the gel over the drips overnight so that the treatment can be done while they sleep.
This treatment should be carried out between 2 and 3 weeks, at the end of which, the results will be clearly visible!
At our clinic,we make sure that there aren’t any pre-existing conditions which need to be treated before starting the aesthetic procedures. Each tooth will be examined by the dentist individually.
After this examination, the doctor responsible will decide whether there is the need for further testing and examination. This is a very important step, which guarantees that our treatments will have the longest possible longevity, and that they will not interfere with the comfort or well-being of the patient!
No. When performed under the recommended medical guidelines, this treatment is completely safe and will not bring future complications to our patients.
We always carry out an initial check-up to ensure that there are no pre-existing conditions which might affect the treatment, we make sure that all products and tools are applied correctly and that the patient is comfortable during the treatment.
Any tooth sensitivity that may exist in the first few days will not be permanent, and is solved with a desensitizing gel, which we’ll prescribe.
At Prime Dental Clinic we have renowned Dentists, with several years of experience, who ensure the comfort of our patients before starting any treatment.
If the more intense whitening gel that we apply in internal treatments touches the gums, it might cause a slight burning sensation, but the dental protections certify that this won’t happen.
In the 48 hours following the teeth whitening treatment, the pores that exist on the teeth surface will be more open, so we recommend that you do not ingest acidic foods or beverages, foods with too much pigment, or use tobacco products.
At Prime Dental Clinic, we want to offer all our patients the best possible treatment that suits their characteristics and goals. Therefore, we recommend different treatments to different patients, depending on what they want and their personal characteristics.
For example, in cases where the patient needs a faster treatment, the External Dental Whitening option in Clinic is the most suitable, but if the patient has undergone an Endodontic treatment, probably the most suitable treatment will be the Internal Teeth Whitening treatment in Clinic. For the longest lasting results we recommend a combination of treatments at home and in the office.
