TOOTH/TEETH
WHITENING (with Safe Cool Light System)
Most of us start out with sparkling white
teeth, thanks to their porcelain-like enamel surface. Composed of
microscopic crystalline rods, tooth enamel is designed to protect
the teeth from the effects of chewing, gnashing, trauma and acid
attacks caused by sugar. But over the years enamel is worn down,
becoming more transparent and permitting the yellow color of
dentin — the tooth’s core material — to show through.
During routine chewing, dentin remains
intact while millions of micro-cracks occur in the enamel. It is
these cracks, as well as the spaces between the crystalline enamel
rods, that gradually fill up with stains and debris. As a result,
the teeth eventually develop a dull, lackluster appearance.
Tooth whitening removes the stains
and debris, leaving the enamel cracks open and exposed. Some of
the cracks are quickly re-mineralized by saliva, while others are
filled up again with organic debris.

TOOTH WHITENING OPTIONS
Two major tooth whitening options are
available. All two rely on varying concentrations of peroxide and
varying application times.

Significant color change
in a short period of time is the major benefit of in-office
whitening. The activated light color of Plasma Cool-light system
is blue light which emits less heat than the red light of
laser system. This procedure involves the carefully controlled use of
a relatively high-concentration peroxide gel, applied to the teeth
by the dentist or trained technician after the gums have been
protected with a paint-on rubber dam. Generally, the peroxide
remains on the teeth for several 15 to 20 minute intervals that
add up to an hour (at most). Those with particularly stubborn
staining may be advised to return for one or more additional
bleaching sessions, or may be asked to continue with a home-use
whitening system.
Laser Tooth Whitening system is no longer used at Thantakit
because it is old-fashioned and risky. The laser produces
relatively high amount of heat compared to cool and blue
light system. The heat can damage your teeth and tissue.

Home Bleaching
Many dentists are of the opinion that professionally dispensed
take-home whitening kits can produce the best results over the
long haul. Take-home kits incorporate an easy-to-use
lower-concentration peroxide gel that remains on the teeth for an
hour or longer (sometimes overnight). The lower the peroxide
percentage, the longer it may safely remain on the teeth. The gel
is applied to the teeth using custom-made bleaching trays that
resemble mouth guards.

used. Some people respond very well to teeth whitening and have
