Teeth whitening is a safe and effective way to brighten your smile and make it more aesthetically pleasing. Modern whitening techniques allow you to freshen the shade of your teeth by several shades while preserving the health and structure of your teeth.
Before any teeth whitening procedure, it is very important to make sure that it is safe and suitable for you. That’s why the first step is always a thorough examination of your teeth and gums.
What we assess at this stage:
Our aim is to ensure that the whitening process is effective, safe and tailored to your needs, while preserving the health of your teeth and gums.
For a smooth, effective and long-lasting teeth whitening result, it is very important to have professional dental hygiene before the procedure.
Why it’s important:
When to have a hygiene check-up
We recommend having a dental hygiene check-up 1-2 weeks before your whitening treatment to ensure that your mouth is fully prepared and healthy.
To make teeth whitening not only effective but also completely safe, it is very important to protect your gums and oral mucosa from direct contact with the whitening gel. Therefore, a special step is taken before applying the gel: applying a protective material to the gums.

Frequently asked questions
Yes, professional teeth whitening in our clinic is a safe procedure, carried out with proven materials and in strict compliance with the technology. We always carry out an initial examination to make sure the procedure is right for you.
Not if it’s done professionally. Modern whitening products are formulated to avoid damaging enamel. In addition, we offer remineralising products after the procedure to strengthen your teeth.
The result is individual, but usually 4-8 shades lighter. The final effect depends on the original colour and pigmentation of the teeth.
No, whitening gel only works on natural tooth enamel. Existing fillings, crowns or veneers will not change colour. If necessary, they can be replaced after the treatment to adjust the overall shade.
From the consultation to the final fitting, the whole process takes on average 3 to 6 months. This includes the healing period, during which the implant fuses with the bone. In more complex cases or if necessary, longer time may be required
The effect usually lasts 1-2 years, depending on diet, smoking habits and oral hygiene. For longer-lasting results, we recommend regular dental hygiene and avoiding pigmented products.
We recommend professional dental hygiene before the procedure to remove plaque and tartar. The doctor will also assess the condition of your teeth and gums and make sure there is no caries or inflammation.
Home whitening kits (individual caps with gel) are an effective solution, but should only be used after consultation with a dentist. Do-it-yourself treatment with unknown products can be dangerous for dental health.
The whitening procedure at the clinic lasts on average 60-90 minutes. The results are visible immediately after the visit.
Whitening is not recommended for pregnant women, people with active caries, inflamed gums or very thin enamel. We always carry out a thorough examination to assess suitability for the procedure.
