Teeth Whitening in Tenerife

What is Professional Teeth Whitening in Tenerife?

Professional teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment designed to whiten and brighten your teeth by several shades. It removes stains and discoloration caused by food, drinks, tobacco, or aging. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional whitening is done under the supervision of a qualified dentist, which means safer application and better, longer-lasting results.

We do not offer take-home whitening kits, because we believe in the superior effectiveness of in-clinic procedures. Home kits can be unpredictable and usually contain lower concentrations of whitening agents. Without a dental assessment, they may even damage your gums or enamel. At Clínica Dental Raíces, we use a powerful LED-activated whitening system to deliver up to 8 shades lighter in a single session, safely, comfortably, and with impressive results.

What Is Our LED Teeth Whitening Procedure Like?

We are proud to use advanced LED whitening technology in our clinic. This modern method accelerates the whitening process while minimizing tooth sensitivity. Here’s what your appointment will look like:

1. Initial consultation and assessment: We begin with a complete oral health check. Dr. Alaa ensures your teeth and gums are healthy before starting. If any issues like cavities or gum problems are found, we’ll treat them first. We also determine your current tooth shade and discuss your whitening goals.

2. Professional cleaning: We perform a hygiene cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, which helps the whitening gel work more evenly.

3. Gum protection: Your gums, lips, and cheeks are protected using dental barriers and a special gel to isolate the teeth.

4. Application of whitening gel: We apply a safe, clinically tested hydrogen peroxide or carbamide gel to your teeth.

5. LED light activation: Our high-intensity LED lamp is positioned over your teeth to activate and accelerate the gel. Each cycle lasts 15–20 minutes, and typically one or two cycles are enough for great results.

6. Final results and aftercare: Once the treatment is complete, we compare the results and give you personalized aftercare instructions—like avoiding certain foods or drinks for 48 hours and using desensitizing toothpaste if needed.
   

Throughout the entire procedure, your comfort is our priority. Most patients describe it as painless and surprisingly relaxing. The LED light produces no heat, significantly reducing the risk of sensitivity.

FAQs: Teeth Whitening at Clínica Dental Raíces

Does teeth whitening hurt or cause sensitivity?

Most patients don’t feel pain, but some may experience mild sensitivity during or after treatment. It’s temporary and usually goes away within 24–48 hours. We can also recommend desensitizing toothpaste if needed.

How long do the results last?

Results can last from 1 to 3 years, depending on your diet and habits. Taking care of your teeth and avoiding coffee, red wine, and tobacco will help your smile stay whiter for longer.

Will it damage my enamel?

No. Our professional whitening is safe and doesn’t damage your enamel or weaken your teeth. We use high-quality gels with remineralizing agents, and the treatment is fully supervised by a qualified dentist.

How should I care for my teeth afterward?

For the first 48 hours, follow a “white diet” (light-colored foods and drinks). Avoid coffee, tea, wine, curry, and smoking during this period. Brush regularly and visit us for check-ups to keep your smile bright.

Can I whiten my teeth if I have crowns, veneers, or fillings?

Whitening gels only work on natural tooth enamel. Crowns, veneers, and fillings will not change color. If you have visible restorations, we’ll discuss how they’ll look after whitening and whether any replacements are recommended.

How much does it cost?

The cost depends on your starting shade and if any treatment (like cleaning or fillings) is needed first. We offer fair pricing and can provide a full quote after a no-obligation consultation.
