ENWhat whitening can and cannot do
Whitening aims to lighten natural teeth. Results vary with the original shade, the cause of discolouration and tooth sensitivity. DENTAURUM offers whitening among its dental services; the protocol is discussed after assessment.
Before treatment, your dentist checks tooth and gum health, cavities, existing restorations and any sensitive areas. Professional cleaning or treatment of a dental problem may be needed first. Whitening intensity is not chosen from a photograph alone.

Comfort and health come first
Temporary sensitivity or gum irritation may occur. Tell your dentist if these bother you and follow advice about continuing treatment. The result is not permanent: cleaning, smoking and dietary habits may affect how long the shade lasts.
Frequently asked questions
Will crowns whiten too?
No. Restoration materials do not respond like natural tooth tissue. Your dentist will explain which colour differences may remain.
Can I have whitening if I have cavities?
Cavities and gum problems need assessment and treatment first, as advised by your dentist. Whitening does not replace their treatment.
When can I repeat the procedure?
Repeating treatment is decided after assessing oral health and sensitivity. Avoid repeated courses on your own and ask for an individual protocol.
