Currently, one of the best ways to whiten teeth is the Enlighten system. Why? In just three weeks you can achieve a B1 shade, the closest thing to white in dentistry, and the effect - as long as you follow a few rules - lasts a lifetime.

Why don't many ways to whiten teeth work?

Let's start with the fact that the colour of your teeth is not always the consequence of negligent oral hygiene. Sometimes it is your natural dentin and enamel shade. It is also influenced by age and genes. If you are interested in this topic, we recommend our article "What tooth colour depends on".

Going back, many people use pastes when dreaming of a white smile, overlays or gels available in pharmacies or online shops. Unfortunately, in these cases, you have to wait for the effect, which is often not satisfactory and, more importantly, does not last long. The reason for this is superficial whitening.

Therefore, the best way to whiten teeth is through a process that combines a visit to the dentist's office, overlay whitening and prevention.

The whitest white - guaranteed effect

According to the study, as many as 98% patients who opted for the Enlighten system achieved a B1 shade, and some even exceeded it. B1 is defined in dentistry as the whitest whiteness. This effect was irrespective of age, diet and current tooth colour. 

IMPORTANT! The above does not apply to veneers, crowns or composite fillings. Only your natural tooth changes colour. For this reason, we recommend that you first undergo a whitening treatment and then fit the appropriate crowns or filling colour. 

Rest assured, in our office you will receive all the necessary information also regarding the treatment before and after whitening. At this point, we must point out that teeth whitening may be associated with increased tooth sensitivity. However, when using the Enlighten system (according to the company's research), only about 2% patients experienced more intense sensitivity. However, this disappeared as soon as the whitening was stopped.

Enlighten system - white teeth in 3 weeks

The Enlighten system is currently one of the best ways to whiten teeth. The whole process takes three weeks and, according to studies, as many as 95% patients achieve their dream result in that time.

And how does the whole process work?

As with other methods of tooth whitening, so the basis here is healthy teeth and gums. Therefore, the first step is possible treatment and - always - the hygiene.

The dentist will then take the moulds at your office visit and have the trays made to fit your teeth perfectly. 

Then you get the whole kit, which you will have to use for the following 3 weeks. It includes trays and strong whitening gels (only available in dental practices). 

Use the gel throughout the night for the first two weeks. Simply apply it to the trays, put it in your mouth and go to sleep. In the morning, remember to rinse the caps with cold water and place them in a dry place (upside down) to get rid of excess water.

 In the third week, it is sufficient to wear the gel pads for one hour a day. 

The photo shows two close-ups of the teeth of the same patient before and after the whitening treatment. On the left, the yellowed and non-uniform shades of the teeth are visible, while on the right, the teeth are visibly whiter and have an even, bright colour after the application of the Enlighten whitening product.

The best way to whiten your teeth is with lifelong results!

The Enlighten system gives an effect that will last a lifetime. Just follow a few rules.

Use gel pads for the first 6 months once a month (overnight). For the next year one night every 2 months. After that, one night every 6 months is sufficient. 

Importantly for this method of tooth whitening you are not bound by the white diet during and after treatment. You can eat and drink whatever you want. IMPORTANT: Except while you have overlays on your teeth.
