Whiten teeth · Berlin
Professional teeth whitening lightens colour pigments within natural teeth. After an examination and shade analysis, we determine whether in-practice treatment or supervised whitening with custom trays at home is appropriate for your goals and schedule.
Before
Teeth and gum check
Methods
In practice or custom trays
Goal
Naturally brighter, individually planned
Spring principle
Not maximally white – but brighter, clinically checked and suited to the individual face.
Understand and decide
Natural tooth colour is strongly influenced by the dentine beneath the enamel. Pigments from coffee, tea, red wine or tobacco can also build up over time. Ageing, medication, trauma or a root-treated single tooth may change appearance as well. A responsible whitening plan therefore begins by identifying the cause rather than simply applying a gel.
A professional dental cleaning removes calculus, plaque and surface staining. It may reveal the natural tooth colour more clearly but does not change it. Whitening acts on colour pigments within natural teeth. The appropriate next step often becomes clear only after cleaning and a documented shade assessment.
Important: crowns, fillings and veneers do not become lighter through whitening.
Before whitening, we assess teeth and gums, leaking restorations, decay, cracks, sensitive necks and visible dental work. With increased sensitivity, the method may need to be adjusted or whitening may not be advisable. Pregnancy, breastfeeding and known allergies to ingredients must also be discussed.
How quickly teeth darken again depends on diet, beverages, smoking, oral hygiene and individual tooth structure. Strongly staining or acidic foods and drinks are best limited initially. Regular checks and effective home care help maintain perspective and allow any future top-up to be planned safely.
