This discoloration happens within the tooth, and this is caused due to medication, illness, tooth trauma, infections or aging.

Then they employ a special heating lamp on the teeth for 3 to 20 minutes and reapply this gel at regular intervals. Some dentists even use lasers instead of heating lamps. This activates the whitening procedure. When dentists perform this procedure, they use a protective barrier to protect the lips, tongue and gums. Also, they help to manage tooth sensitivity or other issues during the treatment.
Dentists also advise the use of at-home bleaching products with custom-fitted tooth trays. This tray accommodates 10% carbamide peroxide. It can be employed for fourteen days and for eight hours every single night. Dentists recommend the appropriate treatment plan that best suits your needs. Teeth get whitened up to 10 shades lighter in just one hour.
