The procedure of teeth whitening Beyond method is extremely popular due to the fast visible results and safety.
Before whitening it is necessary to get your teeth thoroughly cleaned of any sediment. Then the dentist puts special protective gel on gums and strengthens it with UV lamp. Then the whitening formulation is applied to teeth and a fluorescent Beyond lamp is used.
The lampd used during the surgery has a very good filtration system. Irradiation takes about 15 minutes, but to get a more satisfactory result it is worth to repeat the whole cycle three times. The teeth are whiter immediately after treatment.
Overlay Teeth whitening
As in the previous method, it is necessary in advance to heal and clean the teeth. Then the dentist will take impressions of the patient’s teeth that are sent to the dental laboratory, where individually made are silicon overlays to fit the patient’s teeth.
