Preliminary oral check-up
Dental whitening
Le blanchiment des dents est un procédé qui vise à éclaircir les colorations de l’émail et de la dentine au moyen d’un gel à base de peroxyde d’hydrogène (eau oxygénée).
However, no whitening treatment should be carried out without a prior oral check-up, during which your dentist will make sure that there are no contraindications (untreated caries, devitalized teeth, weak enamel, gum irritation, etc.).
Chairside dental whitening
- The "in office" treatment, carried out in the office, consists of the application of a high concentration of gel on the teeth, which is also light activated; this method is fast and done under medical supervision.
- The "devitalized tooth" (gray) treatment is done from the inside of the tooth. The bleaching product is applied to the root area, and the tooth is whitened afterwards.
Important : Le blanchiment ne peut pas être effectué en présence de tartre et/ou de caries. Avant d’entreprendre un traitement de blanchiment, un examen complet et un nettoyage de vos dents sont obligatoires !

Dental whitening Chêne-Bourg : important information before making an appointment
Les résultats peuvent varier en fonction de la nature de mon émail et de mes habitudes d’hygiène buccale. Le blanchiment n’est pas destiné à éclaircir les couronnes, les facettes ou toutes autres restaurations dentaires, et par conséquent, ces restaurations pourraient présenter un décalage de teinte par rapport aux dents naturelles à la suite du blanchiment.
Pain - Sensitivity: Certain conditions can increase or prolong the sensitivity that normally occurs in the first 24 hours following the start of bleaching, including dentine hypersensitivity, gum recession, dental fissures, caries, and defective fillings.
