Discoloured teeth can be lightened gently. We first check where the discolouration comes from — because not every discolouration should be bleached; some have a treatable cause.
Teeth discolour from coffee, tea, red wine or simply over the years. Before we whiten, we clarify whether the discolouration is superficial or has another cause — such as a dead tooth or an old filling. This keeps the result natural and honest.
Bleaching is usually preceded by a professional dental cleaning so the whitening works evenly. We then lighten with well-tolerated agents — in the practice or with custom-made trays for home.
Does bleaching harm the tooth?
Used professionally it is considered gentle. We check dental health beforehand.
How long does the result last?
It varies with diet and habits — usually a few months to years.
Do fillings also get lighter?
No. Tooth-coloured fillings and crowns stay as they are — we discuss this beforehand.
We don't promise a dazzling white Hollywood smile at any price. We aim for a brighter, fresh result that suits you — and only when the teeth are healthy.
Is bleaching suitable for everyone?
Not always. With caries, leaking fillings or exposed tooth necks we clarify that first. Healthy teeth are the prerequisite.
Does whitening hurt?
Some patients feel temporarily more sensitive teeth. This usually subsides quickly.
Does insurance cover the costs?
Bleaching is an aesthetic service and therefore usually paid privately. We inform you transparently in advance.
We look at your teeth calmly and say honestly whether and how bleaching makes sense.
