Bleaching is the process of lightning the color of human teeth. Whitening is often desirable when teeth become yellowed over time for a number of reasons, and can be achieved by changing the intrinsic or extrinsic color of the tooth enamel. The chemical degradation of the chromogens within or on the tooth is termed as bleaching.
Bleaching may be the best option if you :
- Have mild to moderate tetracycline, fluoride, or trauma- related staining.
- Are on limited budget
- Are happy with the shape and proportion of your teeth
- Prefer a more conservative, non-invasive approach
