Teeth Whitening at the Face and Body Institute

Teeth whitening is performed using one of the most excellent and safest systems in the world, the Beyond WhiteSpa System.
Its innovation consists in using a cold blue light which activates the whitening gel. This solution allows us to reduce tooth sensitivity, often experienced by clients after whitening.
Step-by-step description of treatment:
First we check the condition of your teeth and ensure that they have recently been scaled and sanded and that there are no unfilled cavities. Whitening cannot be performed unless these conditions are met.
If there are no contraindications, the hygienist will place a cheek retractor in your mouth to help keep it open throughout the procedure.
When the retractor is in place, your gums are painted with a special liquid plastic that is hardened using a lamp. It is a completely safe substance that protects the gums from the effects of the whitening gel.
CAUTION! Some of the offices that offer very inexpensive teeth whitening treatments do not use the liquid dental dam, which causes gum erosion and pain.
After applying the liquid dam, preventing the teeth from uncontrolled contact, and coating the lips with a protective balm, an original whitening gel is applied to your teeth.
After the application of the gel, a lamp that activates the whitening agent is placed against the oral cavity.
The procedure is repeated three times, each session lasting 10-15 minutes.
Throughout the treatment, the hygienist uses a dental suction apparatus to allow you to breathe comfortably.
After the three sessions, the gel is wiped off your teeth, the liquid dam removed and your oral cavity thoroughly rinsed and cleaned.
The Beyond WhiteSpa System can make your teeth brighter by 4 to 9 points on the so-called VITA scale.
For 48 hours after the treatment, it is necessary to:
– maintain the so-called ‘white diet’ (eat non-coloured foods, e.g. cottage cheese, cauliflower, white meat, bananas; drink water, milk or white wine – avoid drinking coffee, tea, red wine and eating coloured fruit)
– abstain from smoking
– brush your teeth after every meal and snack
– use the toothpaste that supports the effect of Beyond White Spa
Depending on your diet and habits, the effects of the treatment will last for about 12 months or longer.
