A Journey to Your Perfect Smile

What is Tooth Whitening?

Tooth whitening, also known as teeth whitening, is an essential part of aesthetic dentistry. It is a process where discolourations and tooth stains are effectively treated to give you a whiter smile. Our experts employ advanced techniques to ensure you achieve the desired result. These methods are designed not only to visibly lighten your teeth but also to enhance the health and aesthetics of your smile. By combining state-of-the-art technology and professional expertise, we offer you a treatment tailored to your individual needs.

The science behind a white smile

During tooth whitening, bleaching agents are applied to the tooth surface, penetrating deep into the enamel to dissolve colour pigments caused by food, drinks or tobacco. These treatments can be carried out both in our studios in Lucerne, Zurich or Aarau and conveniently from home. We always ensure to protect your gums and tooth substance.

Our Whitening Methods: Safe and Effective

At ALPINE WHITE we offer a range of teeth whitening options tailored to your individual needs and desires:

In-Office Whitening

In-Office Whitening is performed directly in our studio and delivers fast and impressive results. You can expect your teeth to lighten in just one session.

Scientific studies from the Fraunhofer Institute in 2023 underscore the effectiveness and safety of our ALPINE WHITE bleaching gel for teeth whitening. Our innovative whitening treatment proves to be as effective as traditional methods using hydrogen peroxide. Remarkably, our method does not cause significant changes to the enamel, an important aspect for long-term dental health.

However, it is important to note that fillings cannot be lightened by the bleaching gel. This ensures that the natural tooth colour is enhanced without compromising oral hygiene or the integrity of the tooth necks. These research results confirm the reliability of our bleaching treatment, which is a key element for years of bright and healthy teeth.

The difference with power bleaching

Power bleaching is considered a more intensive method of whitening teeth, effectively treating particularly stubborn stains. This technique uses more aggressive whitening agents along with special light technology to achieve optimal results in just one session. In contrast, our ALPINE WHITE bleaching treatment relies on a gentler whitening of the teeth, avoiding the use of intense light or strong chemicals. Our approach aims to gradually and safely restore the natural whiteness of the teeth, prioritising the protection of the tooth necks and oral hygiene. Thus, we offer an effective alternative that preserves the long-term health of your teeth and gums.

Internal bleaching

Internal bleaching is a specialised tooth whitening method primarily used for devitalised teeth, meaning teeth that are no longer supplied with blood due to a root canal treatment and therefore can lose their natural colour. This procedure aims to improve the tooth colour from within by applying a bleaching agent directly into the interior of the tooth, in the chamber where the nerve tissue used to be. However, internal bleaching is not offered by us.

Process of internal bleaching

The process begins with the careful removal of all filling materials from the tooth crown or access channel that were placed during the root canal treatment. Subsequently, the bleaching gel is introduced into the cavity of the tooth and the access is securely sealed with a temporary closure. The bleaching agent remains in the tooth for a certain period to lighten the dark discolourations coming from within. This treatment can be repeated several times as needed, depending on the severity of the discolouration until the desired result is achieved.

Advantages of internal bleaching

One of the main advantages of internal bleaching is its ability to treat specific and isolated discolourations that external bleaching methods cannot reach. Since the bleaching agent is applied directly to the site of the discolouration, the results are often very effective and can significantly improve the aesthetics of the tooth.

Considerations for dental health

Although internal bleaching is an effective method for whitening devitalised teeth, it should only be performed under the supervision of a qualified dentist to protect the integrity of the tooth and surrounding tissue. It is important that the treatment is carefully planned and carried out to minimise potential risks such as further weakening of the tooth or irritation of the surrounding gums.

Internal bleaching offers many clients a valuable opportunity to improve the appearance of their teeth after a root canal treatment and to boost their confidence with a brighter smile.

Home bleaching

For those who prefer to do the whitening at their own pace, we offer home bleaching. With our products, which you can use at home, you have the flexibility to whiten your teeth according to your own schedule.

In the field of dental care products, ALPINE WHITE has developed a range of innovative solutions that not only effectively whiten teeth but also support daily oral hygiene. Our range includes products that are all aimed at safely and gently improving your smile.

Whitening Kit

Our Whitening Kit is specially designed for thorough and even whitening of the teeth. It contains everything you need for professional tooth whitening at home, including a specially formulated bleaching gel that effectively tackles even stubborn discolourations without damaging the tooth substance.

Whitening Strips

ALPINE WHITE's Whitening Strips offer a convenient solution for tooth whitening. These easy-to-use strips are impregnated with an advanced bleaching gel that spreads evenly over your teeth, helping to remove discolourations and visibly brighten your tooth colour.

Whitening Foam

Our Whitening Foam is an innovative addition to your daily oral hygiene routine. The foam is easy to apply and is ideal for whitening between uses without irritating the necks of the teeth. It not only refreshes your breath but also helps to gently whiten teeth and reduce discolourations.

Sonic Toothbrush

In addition to these products, we have also developed a highly functional sonic toothbrush that is characterised by efficient energy transfer from the handle to the tips of the bristles. This toothbrush achieves up to 80,000 cleaning movements per minute and offers three times more effective care than conventional brush heads due to its compact, slightly angled head with equal length, soft, dense bristles. The antibacterial bristles and elegant Swiss design complete the profile of this toothbrush.

Three individual cleaning modes

Our sonic toothbrush offers three individual cleaning modes that allow you to tailor the tooth cleaning to your specific needs. Whether gentle care or intensive cleaning, you can choose the mode that best suits your oral hygiene.

Ease of use

The use of our sonic toothbrush is extremely simple and safe. The hollow one-piece brush neck enables efficient and even sound transmission. The modified bass brushing technique recommended by dental hygienists helps to effectively reduce plaque and discolouration without injuring the gums.

Whitening toothpastes from ALPINE WHITE: Tailored solutions for every need

At ALPINE WHITE, we understand that everyone has different needs when it comes to dental care. That's why we've developed three special variants of our whitening toothpaste to meet every need: Sensitivity Relief, Extra White and Anti Plaque. Each of these toothpastes is carefully formulated to not only whiten teeth but also address specific oral health issues.

Sensitivity Relief

The Sensitivity Relief Whitening Toothpaste is ideal for people with sensitive teeth. This specially formulated toothpaste helps to gently whiten teeth while counteracting the sensations of pain that can be caused by hot, cold, or sweet foods. Ingredients such as potassium nitrate minimize sensitivity by soothing the nerve endings in the teeth, and hydroxyapatite helps to remineralize and strengthen the enamel.

Extra White

For those who want to achieve a dazzling white smile, the Extra White variant is the perfect choice. This toothpaste maximizes teeth whitening with advanced bleaching agents that penetrate deep into the surface to remove stubborn stains. Additionally, the formula contains PPCA, which sustainably whitens teeth, and xylitol, which helps protect against cavities and provides extra cleaning.

Anti Plaque

The Anti Plaque Whitening Toothpaste is specially developed for those who are prone to plaque and tartar. This formula contains active ingredients that help reduce plaque and prevent the formation of tartar. With ingredients like activated charcoal, which binds dirt and bacteria, and an antioxidant herbal mix that has anti-inflammatory effects, this toothpaste not only promotes whiter teeth but also supports a healthy oral flora.

Common Features and Benefits

All three variants of our Whitening Toothpastes contain ingredients that not only promote teeth whitening but also improve overall oral health. Each toothpaste provides an immediate whitening effect through blue light filters, which visually enhance the natural whiteness of the teeth. The formulas are designed to be used daily without damaging the gums or enamel, making them an ideal choice for long-term dental care and aesthetics.

These special variants allow you to choose a toothpaste that is precisely tailored to your personal care needs while benefiting from a safer and effective bleaching effect. ALPINE WHITE supports your efforts for a healthier, brighter smile with products specifically designed for your individual needs.
