How does teeth whitening work?
A whitening gel contains hydrogen/carbamide peroxide. By penetrating deep into the enamel and dentin, these substances disintegrate, releasing atomic oxygen, which destroys the pigments that have changed the color of the teeth at the molecular level. As a result, the teeth brighten by 6 to 8 shades or even more.
Indications
Yellow or dark stains on enamel
Age-related discoloration of teeth
Fluorosis
Tetracycline stains.
Contraindications
Absolute (can’t be performed)
Hypersensitivity of teeth
Individual intolerance to the components of the whitening gel.
Relative (requires preliminary treatment)
Tooth decay
Pulpitis
Periodontitis
Cracks or chips.
What methods of professional whitening are used at our clinic?
We use the best whitening technologies to achieve a snow-white smile without harming the health of your enamel.
Opalescence Go
A set of UltraFit (melon and mint flavored) home-ready mouthguards filled with a whitening gel. In addition to 6% hydrogen peroxide, the gel contains sodium fluoride and potassium nitrate to reduce the sensitivity of enamel. The mouthguards should be used for 60-90 minutes a day. The whitening course takes up to 10 days.
Zoom 4
An optimal choice for patients who want to whiten their teeth up to 8 shades in one visit and preserve the results for up to 5 years. A patented whitening gel with 25% hydrogen peroxide is applied to the cleaned enamel surface. It is activated by a special Zoom WhiteSpeed lamp, which accelerates the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into free radicals. The duration of the procedure is up to 1.5 hours.
KöR
An innovative technology for deep teeth whitening. Initially, the patient wears day or night mouthguards with a whitening gel – with hydrogen/carbamide peroxide as an active ingredient – for 14-21 days. Then, they undergo a one-hour hydrogen peroxide whitening treatment at a dentist’s office.

What whitening method to choose?
“It all depends on the clinical situation and the patient’s wishes. E.g., only KöR Whitening can whiten tetracycline teeth – dark gray and brown vertical or horizontal lines. And if the patient needs to get a beautiful smile as quickly as possible, it is better to choose Zoom 4.”
Teeth whitening alternatives
Veneers
For numerous yellowed or darkened fillings on the front teeth, it is better to place ceramic veneers. These thin (0.3-0.5 mm), highly aesthetic overlays will create a perfect smile for years to come. Before bonding to the front surface of the teeth, the enamel layer must be resurfaced to the thickness of the veneer.
Lumineers
Ultra-thin overlays (up to 0.3 mm) made of pressed E-max ceramics. In most cases, can be placed without preparing the tooth. They cost a little bit more.

Yes, some home teeth whitening products can achieve good results. But clinical whitening has several advantages:
- Predictability of the result. Every smile is unique. Clinical whitening takes into account the individual needs of the patient, giving results not only effectively but also safely.
- Effectiveness. Home whitening options are limited. Only professional clinical whitening can make your smile whiter in complicated clinical cases.
- Safety. Home enamel whitening runs a high risk of chemical burns to the mucosa. There is always a chance to use the purchased product incorrectly or not take into account any contraindications.
