LASER TEETH WHITENING EPIC™

People who smile  are perceived as being  more beautiful, regardless of their age. Smiling helps to relieve both physical and mental stress while making  us look more healthy and calm.

But what can we do when our smile does not  have  the color that we want? It’s easy, the answer is laser teeth whitening. 

Smoking, improper eating habits such as drinking coffee or red wine, some antibiotics administered during childhood or simply ageing  can result in the color changes of our  teeth  resulting in  a yellow-with tint. As we age discoloration of the teeth appears  different due to the natural ageing process. So, for most of us, teeth whitening may mean regaining a bright vibrant and young smile. Few, however, are those who are willing to wait 10 to 12 weeks in order to whiten their teeth at home, and because time is extremely important for all of us today, laser teeth whitening professionally performed in our  dental practice is the time  saving  and extremely advantageous solution. 

The Laser Teeth Whitening procedure is extremely simple. A  bleaching gel containing  hydrogen peroxide is being used and  activated by the laser light making  the results astonishing. The entire  procedure is simple and extremely comfortable for the patient, also being, safe and fast.
