Three Tips to Prepare for a KöR Teeth Whitening Procedure

Some people are born with a white, dazzling grin, while others have dark teeth despite their best efforts. Whatever the cause of your less-than-perfect white teeth, KöR® whitening is one of the most efficient and safest ways to get rid of even the toughest stains. If you have been scheduled for KöR teeth whitening, this article covers tips for preparing.

Preparing for KöR teeth whitening

The following are tips for preparing for the whitening procedure:

Meet the dentist for a checkup first

Patients who have a regular dentist appointment booked before the whitening procedure need to make the most of the appointment. Therefore, it is a good idea to see your dentist before a whitening appointment.

A dentist can assess the patient's oral health and their specific needs to choose the best whitening procedure. Because certain stains are impossible to remove with any whitening solution, it is good to get advice from your dentist before proceeding with the operation. The dentist will be able to tell if the patient is a good candidate for KöR teeth whitening at this session. Even the highest-quality professional bleaching gel will not be able to remove all discoloration.

Get a professional dental cleaning

It is advisable to have the dentist clean the teeth first before the whitening treatment. This will help to boost the whitening treatment's results. The presence of plaque or tartar and other sediments on the teeth may result in poor whitening results. Before the treatment, patients will need to maintain proper oral hygiene in addition to professional cleaning. To avoid complications that might sabotage or postpone the effectiveness of the whitening procedure, patients should floss and clean their teeth every day.

Go for teeth desensitization

Patients who have sensitive teeth may worsen the sensitivity by undergoing teeth whitening. Therefore, it is advisable to use desensitizing toothpaste before the whitening operation. Potassium nitrate and strontium chloride are included in this type of toothpaste.

These chemicals inhibit the transfer of pain signals from the tooth to the nerve. This may help minimize tooth pain. Some individuals suffer from tooth sensitivity due to chemicals and heat that penetrate the pores of their teeth. It is also possible to lessen pain after the whitening procedure with desensitizing toothpaste. Patients with concerns about sensitive teeth should discuss their options with their dentist before undergoing the treatment.

An additional point to note

The decision on a person's suitability for teeth whitening is one that each individual must make for themselves. However, there is no denying that whitening has many advantages. Patients need to consult with the dentist if they are considering teeth whitening treatments. Note that there may be times when this is not the ideal option, but the dentist can work with the patient to find alternative solutions.

Consider teeth whitening

KöR teeth whitening is intended to be long-lasting and efficient. If everything goes according to plan, the patient should not need to undergo any more treatments or procedures to attain his or her teeth whitening goals. If you have additional questions, contact the dental office.
