WHAT IS TOOTH WHITENING?

In the aesthetics sector, teeth whitening is the treatment that is responsible for reducing the original color of the teeth by several tones, leaving the teeth whiter and brighter.

With teeth whitening, it is possible to eliminate the stains produced in the pieces due to substances such as tea, coffee, and other infusions, cigarettes, red wine and alcoholic beverages, and even sugary foods. It is true that not all stains can be eliminated or reduced through teeth whitening and may need other types of aesthetic treatments such as porcelain dental veneers.

In Asensio Odontología Avanzada, we offer you the tooth whitening technique with the most spectacular results on the market. It is a modern, fast, and effective procedure for whitening darkened and stained teeth.

The whitening process takes approximately one hour and the patient can see the results from the first session, thanks to our innovative appliances and advanced laser equipment such as Phillips Zoom. In addition, our team of specialized dentists gives special recommendations to allow you to keep perfect, white, and shiny dental hygiene from your home. The treatment can be repeated every six months or year, depending on the spots or pigmentation present.

It is important and necessary to have a professional dental cleaning with a laser before getting the Zoom whitening session at our dental clinic in valencia. We are one of the few clinics in Valencia that have the latest generation technology to apply it.

How is the whitening process with Phillips Zoom in dental clinic Asensio ?

It is an alternative whitening to laser, less intense than the usual ones, where lasers are not used to accelerate the whitening effect of a concentrated gel. It is a state-of-the-art whitening lamp that speeds up the process and is less aggressive than other techniques with which you will hardly experience any tooth sensitivity.

In this process, 35% hydrogen peroxide bleaching is activated. As hydrogen peroxide breaks down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin to whiten stained substances, without changing the structure of the tooth.

The Phillips Zoom working method is practically identical to that of the laser technologies but with the additional use of LED lights to speed up the process.

The main advantage is that it is less intense, thereby not affecting your tooth sensitivity. Moreover, it will take several sessions to complete it, although you will see results from the first day of treatment.

It must be borne in mind that whitening has no effect on any type of restorations such as amalgams and restorations made with halogen light (resins or white fillings, inlays and crowns, or bridges).

Step by step with Phillips Zoom

The treatment lasts less than an hour and you will get results from the first session. The frequently used procedure in Asensio Advanced Dentistry is divided into the following steps:

  1. The patient’s lips and gums are covered with a gingival protector or barrier to expose the teeth for subsequent work on.
  2. The whitening specialist applies Zoom hydrogen peroxide whitening gel on the teeth and then with a personalized mouthpiece for each patient, we bring the lamp closer to their mouth, which together with the light from the Phillips Zoom lamp works to penetrate the tooth and disintegrate stains and discoloration.
  3. The gel is allowed to act for 15 minutes together with the Phillips Zoom LED light.
  4. During this time, the patient can enjoy a movie with our latest generation 3D glasses, in a relaxing and enjoyable experience.
  5. Four cycles of photoactivation are carried out in the clinic. The session is divided into four 15-minute sessions, where the same process is repeated four times with the zoom light activated to achieve an effective whitening effect.
  6. Once the four sessions of 15 minutes each have finished, a gel-paste with fluoride is applied to the teeth to reduce tooth sensitivity.

Cost of Fixed Dental Prosthesis

Cost of Fixed Dental Prosthesis

Understanding the Cost of Fixed Dental Prosthesis at Dental Asensio

How much does a fixed dental prosthesis cost? Fixed dental prostheses have become an increasingly popular dental solution, offering a permanent attachment in the patient’s mouth without the need for removal. Unlike traditional dentures, which might require an initial adjustment period and pose discomfort during the initial days, the fixed prosthesis provides an effortless speaking and eating experience without the concern of food debris accumulation.

Types of Fixed Dental Prostheses:

  • Fixed Prosthesis on Teeth: This prosthesis latches onto the patient’s existing healthy teeth, ensuring solid support. However, a noted drawback is the need to modify and polish the anchor teeth for the prosthesis to fit appropriately.
  • Fixed Prosthesis on Dental Implants: This prosthesis is anchored to titanium implants, effectively replacing the tooth’s root and ensuring the prosthetic tooth is securely attached.

Such fixed solutions not only address the aesthetic concerns of missing teeth but also enable patients to chew and speak without hindrance, mimicking the natural functionality of real teeth.

Procedure Details at Dental Asensio:

At Dental Asensio, our experts specialize in both dentistry and stomatology, ensuring a precise and customized prosthetic solution for every patient. The procedure typically involves:

  • For Fixed Prosthesis on Teeth: Teeth are shaped and adjusted, creating a “stump” to which the prosthesis will later be secured. Modifying the tooth structure is a necessary step in this procedure.
  • For Fixed Prosthesis on Dental Implants: The dental piece is anchored onto the titanium implant, serving as the tooth’s foundation. A crown or bridge is then placed atop the implant.

Diving into the Cost of Fixed Dental Prosthesis:

The investment in a dental prosthesis is essential when confronting tooth loss. Generally, the cost of a fixed prosthesis varies greatly based on individual needs and specific treatments. On average, a fixed prosthesis starts from €250, and comprehensive fixed dentures can begin at €4,500. It’s essential to note that these costs can fluctuate based on:

  • Chosen materials
  • Number of teeth requiring replacement
  • The technology and techniques utilized
  • The need for interim or provisional prostheses
