Why have Teeth Whitening in Mexico City?

So, you can be certain that your laser whitening treatment inMexico City uses the same brands and materials as a dentist at home would, the only difference being the price.

Dental services in Mexico, providing you go to an established clinic, are generally very high. Dental tourism is popular here, which means clinics are continually improving to provide better services to attract more overseas patients. You will find clinics to be well-equipped and many of them far more modern than what you are used to at home. Contrary to popular myths the quality of care is excellent, and even with travel expenses the savings can still really make a trip abroad for your treatment worthwhile. 

How long does Teeth Whitening take in Mexico City?

Both laser whitening and at-home kits use a peroxide gel to whiten the teeth, but while the results of laser whitening are instantaneous, the at kits may take some time.

Laser Teeth Whitening

Before the start of the procedure your dentist will gauge the shade of your teeth using a shade chart. After thoroughly cleaning the teeth to remove stains and tartar your mouth will be prepared so that your lips, gums or cheeks are not exposed to the bleaching gel. Protective goggles will shield your eyes from the laser.

The gel is applied to your teeth and the whitening effect activated by the laser. After around quarter of an hour the gel is removed and the process repeated twice. After completion all traces of the gel are removed, your teeth cleaned and the shade chart used again to see how much whiter your teeth have become.

Professional Home Whitening Kits

This involves putting whitening gel into custom-made trays which fit over your teeth. The trays are usually worn overnight, or for a few hours a day, until you are satisfied with the results.

Your dentist will make impressions of your teeth and send them to the lab for the trays to be made. After a few days the trays will be ready and your dentist will give you the teeth whitening gel to use in combination with the trays.
