Teeth whitening is among the most sought-after cosmetic treatments today. Yet, many patients still wonder: is it truly safe for teeth and gums?
The answer is simple: yes, when the treatment is performed in a professional setting and according to a precise protocol.
Why does this question come up so often?
Between kits sold online, ‘home’ tricks, and unregulated products, it is normal to be wary. Some solutions are too abrasive or poorly dosed, and can cause sensitivity or irritation. This is what fuels the doubt.
What makes whitening safe
At our clinic, we have developed a strict protocol designed to protect enamel while ensuring visible results.
Our Signature Whitening is based on three pillars:
1. Comprehensive analysis of your dental health
Before any treatment, we check the condition of your gums, the absence of cavities or micro-cracks, and existing sensitivity.
2. A controlled medical gel adapted to your case
Each patient receives an adjusted concentration to ensure effectiveness and comfort.
3. Full protection of gums and soft tissues
We carefully isolate sensitive areas to prevent any contact with the active gel.
Is sensitivity normal?
Yes, slight sensitivity may appear after the session.
It is temporary, disappears within a few hours, and we use a progressive approach to minimize it.
Are the results long-lasting?
Yes. They last even longer if a few simple recommendations are followed after the treatment, particularly avoiding staining foods for 48 hours. We also offer personalized follow-up care to maintain whiteness in the long term.
Conclusion
Each situation requires a clear medical indication. Our team in Montreux can evaluate your case rigorously.
Oui, lorsqu’il est réalisé par un dentiste avec un produit contrôlé. Les gels utilisés en cabinet agissent uniquement sur les pigments internes des dents et n’altèrent pas la structure de l’émail. Le protocole professionnel protège les gencives, limite la sensibilité et garantit un résultat stable.
Yes, but it is temporary and usually disappears within 24 to 48 hours. With our signature protocol, desensitization is performed before and after the treatment, which greatly reduces this effect.
Pregnant women, minors, and people with untreated cavities, inflamed gums, or active hypersensitivity. The dentist always checks the oral condition before approving the treatment.
Il fonctionne sur les dents naturelles mais pas sur les couronnes, facettes ou composites. Le dentiste vérifie systématiquement les restaurations avant le traitement.
