Laser-Accelerated Teeth Whitening

Professional in-office tooth whitening in which a whitening gel is applied and activated with a laser to lighten the natural teeth in a single appointment. Centrum ELLMED also offers an LED-lamp version and custom take-home trays with gel. It suits patients wanting to brighten teeth that have darkened or stained over time, carried out under dental supervision.

Professional whitening lightens the natural shade of the teeth using a peroxide-based gel; an in-office system activates the gel with a light or laser source to work through the appointment, while take-home trays let patients top up the effect gradually at home. It is used to brighten teeth that have yellowed or stained over the years from food, drinks, tobacco or simply age, and being carried out under dental supervision allows the gums to be protected and the right concentration to be chosen. At Centrum ELLMED the laser-accelerated option is completed in a single visit for 1,400 zł: the teeth are cleaned and isolated, the gums are protected, and the whitening gel is applied and activated to lift the shade in one session. An LED-lamp single-visit alternative is offered at 1,000 zł, and custom-made trays supplied with whitening gel are available for home use at 750 zł for both arches or 450 zł for a single arch, which some patients combine with an in-office session for a longer-lasting result. The clinic advises a check-up and a clean beforehand so whitening is applied to healthy teeth and gums, and explains that existing fillings, crowns or veneers do not change colour. Temporary sensitivity can occur and usually settles quickly. The brightness achieved varies between individuals and is associated with the starting shade and with avoiding strongly staining habits afterwards.
