Teeth whitening in Lutsk

Whitening changes the colour of the tooth itself, while cleaning only restores its natural shade. Here's when whitening makes sense and where to start.

Cleaning and whitening are different procedures

AirFlow and comprehensive cleaning remove plaque and stains from the tooth surface. Teeth become lighter, but only up to their natural shade.

Whitening works differently: a special gel lightens pigments inside the enamel and dentin. So it can make teeth lighter than their natural colour. By how much, nobody can say in advance — it depends on the individual's teeth.

Where to start

  1. Check-up. The dentist checks for decay, cracks, gum inflammation and sensitivity.
  2. Professional hygiene. The gel needs to touch clean enamel, so whitening comes after cleaning.
  3. Choosing the method. In-office whitening or at-home whitening with custom trays — the dentist will advise.

Good to know

  • Fillings, crowns and veneers don't whiten. If you have them on your front teeth, they may need replacing after whitening.
  • Temporary sensitivity after the procedure is a common reaction.
  • Results aren't permanent: coffee, tea and smoking gradually bring stains back.
  • There are contraindications: pregnancy and breastfeeding, untreated decay, gum disease and others — the dentist will check.

Frequently asked questions

Can AirFlow whiten my teeth?

No. AirFlow removes plaque and stains, so teeth become lighter up to their natural colour. Only whitening can change the colour of the tooth itself.

Does whitening damage enamel?

When indicated and supervised by a dentist, whitening is considered safe. The most common side effect is temporary sensitivity.
