What are home whitening and office whitening?

How successful is teeth whitening?

Some factors are important in the success of teeth whitening procedures and the continuity of whiteness. Effective results can be achieved with teeth whitening methods for color changes caused by tea, coffee and cigarettes.

Similarly, color changes that occur due to advancing age also achieve successful results with teeth whitening methods. In such patients, 96 percent satisfaction is observed after the procedures performed. However, in addition to these patients, it is a bit difficult to achieve the desired results in colorations that occur due to various medications or excessive weight gain.


On the other hand, the primary colors of the patient's teeth also play an important role in achieving successful results. To explain this with an example; if the patient's teeth are naturally yellow, teeth whitening provides very successful results. However, teeth with brown and gray tones may not whiten completely. In addition, teeth whitening procedures do not change the colors of old filling and coatings in the mouth in any way.

How long does teeth whitening last?

The lifespan of teeth whitened with one of the teeth whitening methods generally varies from person to person. While the whiteness of teeth can last up to 3 months, this whiteness can last up to 3-4 years.

However, the lifespan of whiteness is longer in people who consume cigarettes, tea and coffee to a minimum. The loss of whiteness in these people is around 10-20 percent. In order for the teeth not to easily return to their old appearance, the whitening process can be repeated every 6 months or once a year.
