What types of teeth whitening are there?
The teeth whitening procedure can be divided into types such as:
1. Professional teeth whitening. This type of whitening is carried out in a dental clinic by dentists using special preparations and special equipment.
2. Home teeth whitening. This type of whitening is done at home.
The most used home whitening products are:
- folk remedies that you can use only after consultation with a doctor;
- whitening toothpastes with small abrasive particles;
- chewing gum with abrasive particles, etc.
3. Combined teeth whitening. With this method of teeth whitening, the dentist performs the initial professional whitening in a dental clinic.
The patient then continues the whitening procedure at home. For this, the dentist prescribes the use of special individual mouth guards with whitening agents.
Dentists most often use the combined method of whitening, as it gives the best results.
Professional whitening allows you to get the best result, and home whitening allows you to fix the result, prolong its effect, and also strengthen the enamel. This is accomplished by using at-home dental trays with products that contain fluoride.
What professional teeth whitening methods are used by dentists in Turkey in 2022?
Professional dental whitening is divided into types according to the method of action on tooth enamel. These methods are divided into:
- mechanical method. With this whitening method, the dentist cleans the tooth enamel with a cleaning powder and air.
- ultrasonic method. With this whitening method, the dentist acts on the tooth enamel using ultrasound. This whitening method is more gentle compared to other methods. But at the same time it is more expensive. The price of ultrasound teeth whitening in Turkey can reach 170-200$.
- Chemical bleaching. With this method, dentists use various chemical compositions to affect tooth enamel. This method is considered one of the most effective. But due to the aggressive effect on tooth enamel, dentists use it only on absolutely healthy teeth.
- Laser whitening method. In this case, the dentist uses a device that affects tooth enamel using laser beams. This method, in addition to ultrasonic, is one of the very gentle and effective teeth whitening methods. But it also has a higher cost of the procedure. The price of laser teeth whitening in Turkey can reach 350-400$.
- Teeth whitening with LED light. Using this method of teeth whitening, the dentist applies the whitening agent to the tooth surface. Then place the cold light lamp. He does it 3 times, each stage lasting 15 minutes.
- This method includes the innovative Philips Zoom 4 system . In this case, as a whitening agent, the dentist uses a gel that contains hydrogen. Under the influence of ultraviolet radiation from the lamp, active oxygen is released, which deeply cleanses the tooth enamel.
- Another innovative teeth whitening machine that belongs to this method and is used by dentists in Turkey is Beyond . In this case, the activating agent is a gel with carbamide peroxide, which allows you to gently whiten your teeth up to 8 shades.
Which method is the best in each case the dentist decides after consultation with the patient. If you want to schedule an appointment, Bookimed's medical coordinator is at your disposal 24/7. Contact us without obligation. Our services are free to patients.

How is a LED light teeth whitening performed in Turkey step by step?
The LED light teeth whitening procedure (Zoom 4 and Beyond) is carried out in several stages:
1. Consult with a dentist. During the consultation, the doctor assesses the general condition of the teeth and oral cavity and makes the necessary diagnoses.
2. Hygienic cleaning. In most cases, the dentist will prescribe a hygienic cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, as well as prepare the tooth surface for subsequent application of the activating agent.
3. Dental treatment. If necessary, the dentist can prescribe caries treatment and replacement of old fillings before whitening.
4. Whitening.
- Anesthesia. If the patient does not like to feel the dentist's manipulations, the whitening procedure can be performed under local anesthesia. But most often whitening is done without anesthesia.
- Gum protection. The dentist applies a special protective gel to the gums so as not to damage them with active whitening gel.
- Application of the activating gel. The dentist applies a special gel that, under the action of ultraviolet rays, will release active oxygen and deeply clean the tooth enamel.
- Using an LED lamp. The dentist puts on the patient's glasses against ultraviolet radiation and turns on the lamp for 15 minutes. Depending on the condition of the patient's teeth and the degree of whitening desired, 3-4 repetitions may be necessary.
- Color check. After completing all the stages, the dentist checks the whiteness of the teeth using a special color map.
5. Teeth care after whitening. After whitening, the patient should follow the dentist's recommendations if he wants the whitening effect to last as long as possible:
- the first 24-48 hours after the procedure, the patient must follow the white diet, that is, he should not eat or drink foods that can stain the tooth enamel;
- the patient should brush his teeth with a special soft toothbrush and use a special whitening toothpaste without abrasive particles, or use a dental splint with a special gel;
- the patient must monitor oral hygiene and visit the dentist every 6 months for a preventive examination.

Teeth whitening is most suitable for patients with teeth with the correct bite and without serious damage. Veneers help whiten teeth and improve damaged bites.
Contact a medical coordinator Bookimed and will help you book an appointment with the doctor and find out what type of treatment is best for you.
Can I get teeth whitening if I have a lot of tooth sensitivity?
Yes, you can. When teeth are sensitive, whitening can be done in cases such as:
- before the whitening procedure, the dentist prescribes a tooth remineralization procedure that allows you to strengthen and protect the enamel;
- the dentist prescribes whitening with the innovative Zoom 4 and Beyond appliances and uses mild whitening gels;
- laser teeth whitening;
- home whitening is done with a special kit that contains a mild activator.
Does the teeth whitening procedure affect tooth sensitivity?
When chemical and mechanical whitening methods are used, the sensitivity of the teeth may increase. But dentists in Turkey use modern equipment like Zoom 4 and Beyond, which have cold light lamps. Therefore, the tooth enamel does not heat up and the pores in the enamel do not increase.
In addition, less aggressive gels are used to whiten teeth.
In some cases, dentists prescribe a coating of teeth after whitening with a special protective gel.
Does whitening affect tooth enamel?
Modern methods such as laser and LED light methods allow teeth to be whitened by 8 to 12 shades without damaging the enamel.
The dentist always makes a review and diagnosis before the procedure. And if there are problems that do not allow teeth whitening, then it will not indicate it.
Teeth whitening with Philips Zoom 4 and Beyond devices allow very gentle teeth whitening without damaging the enamel.
Are gums damaged by teeth whitening?
Whitening is absolutely safe if the patient has consulted a qualified dentist and the procedure is carried out in accordance with certain requirements.
To protect the gums, the dentist uses a special protective gel that completely covers the gums and does not allow the active component of the whitening gel to act on them.
How long does the procedure last?
In general, the procedure lasts 60 minutes: 4 procedures of 15 minutes each.
But in some cases the dentist may indicate a hygienic dental cleaning procedure. With this procedure the dental whitening time increases up to 2.5 hours.
Is anesthesia required for teeth whitening?
In most cases, the dentist does not indicate to do dental whitening under anesthesia. But some patients ask to do it under local anesthesia.
Is it painful to get teeth whitening?
With new methods of whitening treatment and devices such as Philips Zoom 4 and Beyond, the procedure is painless. After the procedure, the patient may feel discomfort in the gum area and have more sensitivity in the teeth. But these symptoms pass in 24-48 hours.
Will I be able to eat all the food after whitening?
Right after whitening you should follow a white diet. It is so called because the patient must avoid eating and drinking all colored foods that can cause discoloration of newly treated teeth.
The first few days you have to avoid drinking coffee, tea, coke, red wine, beetroot, etc. It is also advisable to stop smoking for these days.
For how long should I not drink coffee or coke if I have teeth whitening?
At least doctors recommend not taking them for 2 days, but it is better to avoid taking them for up to 2 weeks.
How often can whitening be done?
Dentists do not recommend whitening your teeth more than once every 2 years.
How long can teeth whitening last?
If you will follow all your dentist's recommendations, teeth whitening can last up to 3 years.
How many shades can whiten teeth?
With new dental appliances and methods it is possible to whiten teeth up to 12 shades.
Is whitening done before or after dental procedures?
Dental treatments are always done before whitening. The enamel must not be damaged as the bleaching agent can penetrate the teeth and damage sensitive tissues and nerves.
