Teeth whitening with the Beyond Polus Advance Lamp
Benefits of teeth thitening with Beyond
- The diode light does not heat the teeth or damage the enamel.
- No burns or discomfort. Additional protection is ensured by special light filtration through 200,000 optical fibers, effectively shielding teeth from heat and harmful UV exposure.
- Whitens teeth by 5–10 shades, depending on the initial color. The best results are achieved when whitening naturally yellow-toned teeth rather than grayish ones.
- The effects of Beyond whitening last for 1.5 to 2 years with proper dental care.
How it works?
- The dentist provides protective glasses, places a lip expander, and applies a protective gel to your gums.
- An oxygen gel is then applied to the teeth and activated using the Beyond lamp for 10 minutes. This process is repeated three times, with breaks to remove the old gel and apply a fresh layer.
- 3. The final step is tooth remineralization, where the dentist applies a fluoride mixture to strengthen the enamel.
Contraindications
One of the advantages of Beyond whitening is that it has no specific contraindications and is suitable for most people. However, standard whitening restrictions still apply:- Fillings and crowns in the smile zone – These materials do not respond to whitening, so they may need to be replaced. Alternatively, veneers could be considered.
- Old plaque and tartar – While not a strict prohibition, professional teeth cleaning before whitening is recommended for optimal results.
- Age under 18 – Whitening is not advised for younger patients, as their enamel is still developing.
- Pregnancy – Expecting mothers should postpone the procedure for safety reasons.
