Several factors such as smoking, high consumption of tea, coffee and other colored products can lead to darkening of teeth. Teeth whitening can be done to remove stains and restore the natural shade of teeth. In addition, discoloration acquired during the aging process can also be reversed with this treatment, providing rejuvenation of the smile and face.

Whitening can be done with a laser (in the office), assisted (at home) or combined (in the office and at home). The best method is chosen after an assessment of the condition of the teeth and what the patient expects the result to be.
