Our Techniques

What Do Our Teeth Cleaning and Whitening Services Include?

We offer a comprehensive range of safe, evidence-based treatments:

Deep Teeth Cleaning and Tartar Removal (Scaling & Polishing)

Professional scaling is performed with advanced ultrasonic instruments:

Removal of tartar (calculus) and plaque that cannot be eliminated with regular brushing
Polishing after scaling for a smooth surface and a natural shine
A comfortable procedure that typically takes 30 to 45 minutes

Advanced Teeth Whitening

We use modern cosmetic techniques to lighten tooth shade safely, with protocols designed to protect enamel and gum tissue:

A. Laser Teeth Whitening

A professional-grade whitening gel is applied and activated with laser light for enhanced effectiveness
Visible results in a single in-office session lasting 30 to 60 minutes
A safe procedure for teeth and gums when performed by qualified dental professionals

B. Plasma Whitening Technology

Plasma light gently activates the whitening gel
Delivers a natural-looking brightness that lasts
A gentler option on enamel, well suited to patients with mild tooth sensitivity

C. At-Home Whitening Under Dental Supervision

Custom-fitted whitening trays for even gel distribution
Gradual results with regular clinical follow-up to ensure optimal outcomes

The Difference Between Teeth Cleaning and Teeth Whitening

Teeth Cleaning and Polishing

A therapeutic procedure that removes tartar and deposits to improve tooth and gum health. It does not change the natural shade of the teeth.

Teeth Whitening

A cosmetic procedure that lightens tooth shade and reduces deep intrinsic stains. For patients with both tartar and discoloration, combining the two is often the ideal approach.

Indications & Contraindications

Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening, and Who Should Avoid It?

Ideal candidates for teeth whitening:

Yellowing of the teeth due to natural aging
Stains caused by smoking or by drinking coffee and tea
Discoloration related to excess fluoride exposure or certain medications
Patients who want to enhance their smile before an important occasion

When teeth whitening is not recommended:

Pregnant women and children under 16 years of age
Patients with untreated cavities or gum disease, which must be treated first
Patients with crowns, veneers or tooth-colored fillings, as whitening does not change the shade of restorative materials

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Cleaning and Whitening

Does teeth whitening cause sensitivity?

Some patients may experience mild, temporary sensitivity after whitening. Plasma whitening is a gentler option on enamel and is well suited to patients prone to sensitivity. Your dentist will assess your teeth and recommend the most appropriate technique.

Can I whiten my teeth right after a professional cleaning?

Yes. In many cases, combining scaling and whitening in the same visit gives stronger, more even results, since the whitening gel works on a clean enamel surface.

How often can teeth whitening be repeated?

Whitening can generally be repeated every 6 months to 2 years, depending on the individual case or as advised by your dentist after evaluating your teeth.

How long does a teeth cleaning session take?

A professional cleaning session usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the amount of tartar and deposits present.
