A bright smile and white teeth are synonymous with self-confidence and good oral health. If your teeth have lost their shine due to time, diet, or other factors, Clinique Dentaire Chantepoulet in Geneva offers effective and safe solutions to restore a dazzling smile. We provide modern and personalized treatments tailored to the specific needs of each patient.
Why Do Teeth Turn Yellow?
Teeth discoloration can be caused by several factors:
- Diet: Coffee, tea, red wine, sodas, and certain foods rich in colorants can stain the enamel and alter the natural whiteness of teeth.
- Smoking: Nicotine and tar in tobacco cause persistent brownish stains and dull the enamel.
- Aging: Over time, enamel naturally wears down, revealing the dentin, which has a yellowish tint.
- Poor oral hygiene: Inadequate brushing leads to plaque and tartar buildup, contributing to discoloration.
- Medications and illnesses: Some medical treatments (such as antibiotics and chemotherapy) and certain health conditions can cause tooth discoloration.
It is essential to adopt good oral hygiene habits and consult a professional regularly to prevent and treat these issues.
Our Solutions for Effective Teeth Whitening
Our clinic offers various whitening options tailored to each individual’s needs and tooth sensitivity.
1. In-Office Teeth Whitening
Our dentists use hydrogen peroxide-based whitening gels, activated by LED light. This procedure allows for quick and effective brightening in a single session, with immediate visible results. It is ideal for individuals seeking deep teeth whitening and a radiant smile in a short time. During the consultation, the dentist will evaluate any potential contraindications to ensure a safe and suitable treatment.
2. At-Home Teeth Whitening
For those who prefer a gradual approach, we offer custom-made trays paired with a professional whitening gel. This at-home treatment allows for whitening at your own pace, while still being supervised by our specialists. Regular follow-ups ensure even and lasting results while minimizing the risk of tooth sensitivity.
3. Scaling and Polishing
Before undergoing whitening, it is recommended to get a professional dental cleaning, including scaling and polishing, to remove surface stains and enhance the effectiveness of whitening treatments. This deep cleaning helps restore the natural shade of your teeth and promotes better oral health.
Tips to Maintain White Teeth
To prolong the effects of your teeth whitening treatment and maintain a bright smile, follow these best practices:
- Limit consumption of coffee, tea, sodas, and red wine.
- Eat crunchy fruits and vegetables (apples, carrots, celery) to help naturally clean teeth.
- Quit smoking to prevent stains caused by nicotine and tar.
- Brush your teeth after every meal with a suitable toothpaste and use dental floss to remove food residues and prevent plaque buildup.
- Schedule regular dental visits for check-ups and professional cleanings to optimize the longevity of your whitening results.
