Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening lightens the natural shade of the teeth using a controlled peroxide gel. Stomatologia Słubice offers in-office whitening of all teeth with an activating lamp across two sessions, a take-home system using custom-made trays and gel, and internal whitening for a single darkened, root-treated tooth. Whitening is carried out under dental supervision after the teeth have been checked, for a safer and more even result than over-the-counter kits.

Professional whitening uses a peroxide-based gel to break down staining within the enamel and dentine and lift the overall shade of the teeth. Because it is carried out by a dental team, the gums and lips can be protected, the concentration controlled and the teeth assessed first for decay, exposed roots or restorations that will not change colour — all of which is associated with a safer, more even outcome than shop-bought strips or kits. At Stomatologia Słubice there are three routes. In-office whitening treats all the teeth using a whitening gel activated by a lamp over two sessions for a noticeable change in a short time. The take-home option uses custom trays made to fit your teeth, worn with professional gel over a series of applications at home, which many people like for gradual control and easy top-ups. For a single tooth that has darkened after root-canal treatment, internal (non-vital) whitening lightens it from the inside. A hygiene appointment or scaling beforehand helps the gel work evenly, and some short-lived sensitivity to cold can occur afterwards and usually settles within a day or two. Results last longer when staining foods, coffee, tea, red wine and smoking are moderated, and occasional tray top-ups can maintain the shade. Whitening lightens natural tooth structure only; crowns, veneers and fillings keep their original colour, so timing matters if new restorations are planned. The dentist advises on the best method and realistic shade change at consultation.
