Making White Teeth Easy

What is teeth whitening and how does it work?

Teeth whitening is a method to lighten the natural colour of teeth and remove unattractive stains. Over the years, stains can develop from consumables like coffee, tea, red wine or nicotine. The natural aging process also leads to teeth becoming darker. This is where tooth bleaching comes into play.

The most common method for teeth bleaching is the use of a bleaching agent. Often, hydrogen peroxide is used, which is contained in various bleaching products like bleaching gel or toothpastes. In a dental practice, this process is called power bleaching or in-office bleaching, as highly concentrated bleaching agents are used in a short time to achieve immediately visible results. Not so with ALPINE WHITE - our products are free of aggressive ingredients.

Home Teeth Whitening vs Professional Bleaching

You have various options for whitening your stained teeth. There are home bleaching sets that you can conveniently use at home. These often include mouth trays and a bleaching gel that you apply to your teeth for a specified period. Such sets, available at the pharmacy or from the dentist, are less intensive than professional bleaching at the dentist, but with multiple applications, you can still achieve noticeable results.

In our ALPINE WHITE Studios we offer you the best of both worlds. Our In-Office-Bleaching treatment ensures that you can safely and effectively lighten your tooth colour in a short time while you relax. Our team consists of experienced dental hygienists who know exactly how to achieve the optimal level of whitening without damaging the tooth enamel. We do not use aggressive bleaching agents and rely on gentle but effective products that protect your gums and tooth substance. We also offer products that do not use peroxides, such as our Whitening Strips or the Whitening Kit.

Dental health during tooth whitening

Bleaching is only useful if your dental health is also in good condition. Cavities, gum inflammation, or sensitive necks of the teeth should always be clarified before a tooth bleaching treatment. Regular visits to the ALPINE WHITE Studio, especially for a professional dental cleaning, are important to ensure that your teeth are healthy enough for whitening.

Professional dental cleaning removes tartar, discolouration and deposits on the surface of the teeth, which also improves the result of teeth whitening. Thorough oral hygiene at home is also essential. Use gentle toothpastes that whiten but do not attack the enamel. Here at ALPINE WHITE, we offer dental care products that are specially developed for use after a tooth bleaching treatment. Our toothpaste protects your teeth from further discolouration, while being gentle on your tooth enamel.

Risks and side effects of tooth whitening

Even though modern methods such as In-Office Bleaching are safe and effective, side effects can occur in some cases. Hypersensitivity of the teeth and gums is a common reaction, but it is usually only temporary. If you experience pain or persistent irritation after a bleaching treatment, it is advisable to have your teeth examined at a dental practice or at the ALPINE WHITE Studio.

Bleaching also cannot brighten existing fillings, veneers or dentures. Therefore, it should be clarified before treatment whether your smile will remain aesthetically even. If you have sensitive teeth or dental problems such as periodontitis, it is essential to consult with a dr. med dentist or at the ALPINE WHITE Studios beforehand.

Long-term success for radiantly white teeth

The aim of every teeth whitening is to give you brilliantly white teeth that make your smile shine. But how do you maintain the result over a long period? Here you will learn how to properly care for your whitened teeth and what you should consider to preserve a permanently radiant smile.

Avoid discolouration from stimulants

After teeth whitening, it is crucial to pay attention to certain stimulants that could discolour your teeth again. Coffee, tea, red wine, and acidic foods can deposit colour pigments in the fine grooves of your tooth surface, causing the white result to fade gradually. Smoking, in particular, promotes tooth discolouration and should be avoided as much as possible to protect the radiant whiteness of your teeth. If you want to keep your teeth white in the long term, it is advisable to reduce the consumption of such substances.

Thorough dental care for long-lasting brightness

Regular and thorough oral hygiene is the key to a permanently white smile. This includes daily brushing with a gentle yet effective toothpaste specifically designed for whitened teeth. Additionally, dental floss should be used to remove plaque and deposits between the teeth. Antibacterial mouthwashes also help keep the oral flora in balance and prevent new discolouration. Use our products for this purpose.

Professional teeth cleaning: Your everyday helper

Even with the best dental care, stubborn deposits and discolourations can form that you cannot remove at home. Therefore, it is advisable to have a professional tooth cleaning performed regularly. This not only ensures optimal dental health but also refreshes the whitened shade of your teeth and removes fine discolourations before they can become permanently established.

Aftercare programs at ALPINE WHITE

In our ALPINE WHITE studios in Zurich and Lucerne, you can regularly repeat your bleaching. With regular appointments, you can check your teeth for potential discolourations and, if necessary, have a gentle follow-up treatment performed. This way, your tooth colour stays bright and fresh in the long term.

Tooth-friendly diet and tips for everyday life

In addition to the right dental care, a tooth-friendly diet also plays an important role in maintaining the result of teeth whitening for a long time. In our studios, you will receive valuable tips on which foods to avoid and which care products are best suited to protect your teeth. Our experts will advise you individually and help you find the best care routine for you.
