Teeth Whitening in Nairobi

Teeth discoloration is a common issue that affects many people in Kenya. It can happen due to a wide range of factors, such as the natural wearing out of the enamel layer, certain foods and beverages ,i.e. coffee, smoking, and exposure to certain chemicals. Discolored or stained teeth can have a big impact on a person’s self-esteem and overall quality of life, leading to feelings of self-consciousness and even affecting their social interactions.

Fortunately, teeth whitening, also known as teeth bleaching or masking, offers a reliable solution to this problem. At Arrow Dental Centre, we provide advanced teeth whitening to effectively remove these stains, restoring the natural color of your teeth and enhancing the beauty of your smile.

What Causes Teeth Staining?

Dental stains can be classified into two main types: extrinsic stains and intrinsic stains.

Extrinsic Stains

  • Occur on the surface of the tooth and cause discoloration of the enamel layer
  • Typically appear brown or yellow in color
  • Caused by external substances, such as:
    coffee, tea, and sodas, wine and other alcoholic beverages, cigarettes, etc.
  • Tooth decay can also contribute to surface staining and discoloration

Intrinsic Stains

  • Originate from within the tooth structure
  • Can appear yellow, brown, gray, or white
  • Common causes include: excessive fluoride exposure during childhood, genetic factors, trauma to the teeth, etc.
  • Proper oral diagnosis is necessary to identify the cause of intrinsic stains and determine the most effective treatment method

What to Expect with Tooth Removal

Learn more about the teeth whitening options, the process and potential side effects of the procedure.

Our in-office teeth whitening options offer the most effective way to brighten your teeth. When you visit our dental clinic in Nairobi, we conduct a thorough oral diagnosis and recommend the ideal teeth whitening option for your problem. The options include:

  1. Teeth Bleaching: This teeth whitening treatment procedure involves bleaching the discolored tooth enamel, making your teeth brighter within a short period. This procedure involves applying a relatively high-concentration peroxide gel. This is done by a dentist after protecting the gum with a rubber dam. The gel remains on the teeth for about 15-minute intervals that add up to an hour. Patients with stubborn stains may be required to return for one of several bleaching sessions.
  2. Dental Bonding: This treatment method involves applying tooth-colored dental resin onto the teeth which blend with the existing tooth structure to conceal stains and other flaws. The resin is a biomaterial that resembles the color of the enamel. Our teeth whitening dentist removes the tooth decay and applies the dental resin on the surface then morphs it into the right shape before securing it with our equipment. This process is known as bonding and is ideal for patients suffering from cracked/chipped teeth, worn-out tooth edges, and tooth decay.
  3. Porcelain Veneers: These are thin shells of dental ceramic fitted to the front of the teeth. The veneers blend well with the natural tooth structure hiding stains and other imperfections from view. We use high-quality dental veneers personalized to resemble a patient’s natural teeth to resolve problems such as crooked teeth, damaged enamel, or noticeable gaps between the teeth. We apply the veneer to the front of each tooth to ensure it looks realistic.
  4. Porcelain Dental Crowns: This treatment method is ideal in cases where a tooth injury is the cause of an intrinsic stain. They mask the stain from view and protect the tooth from damage. The tooth-shaped crown can also strengthen and safeguard the tooth structure. We prepare the patient’s teeth, check their shape and size, and prepare a fitting crown.
The teeth whitening process at Arrow Dental Centre involves:

  • Consultation: Our dentist in Nairobi will conduct an oral diagnosis assessing your teeth and discuss your goals to determine the best whitening method for you.
  • Preparation: The dentist will clean your teeth, and apply any necessary protective measures to ensure your gums and soft tissues are not irritated during the procedure.
  • Application: A powerful hydrogen peroxide solution, whitening agent, will be applied to your teeth for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Maintenance: The dentist will provide instructions on how to maintain your newly whitened teeth, including proper oral hygiene and avoiding stain-causing foods and beverages.
  • Depending on the severity of your teeth discoloration, the dentist might schedule several more appointments.

You might experience some of the following side-effects after the whitening procedure:

  • Tooth sensitivity: Some patients may experience temporary tooth sensitivity during or after the whitening process, which usually subsides within a few days.
  • Gum irritation: If the whitening agent comes into contact with your gums, you may experience mild irritation or discomfort, which should resolve quickly. Professional application minimizes this.
  • Temporary Discoloration: Some whitening agents may cause temporary white spots on the teeth, which usually fade after sometime.
  • Uneven results: In some cases, teeth may whiten unevenly, particularly if you have dental work such as crowns or veneers.

Are You a Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Patients should be in good oral health before they undergo a teeth whitening procedure. Gum disease and infections are some issues that need to be addressed before you can qualify for cosmetic dentistry.

We have a highly reputable dentist who is capable of addressing all your oral health needs under one roof. He can provide the care you need to achieve the smile you want and deserve.

How to maintain your teeth after a professional teeth whitening?

Usually, your teeth will discolor with time, no matter how you care for them. Teeth whitening results last for one to two years.

To maximize the benefits of the procedure and keep your teeth as white as possible, you should:

  • Avoid things that can cause discoloration such as tobacco and dark-colored drinks (wine, tea, and coffee).
  • Ensure you brush your teeth after meals
  • Floss regularly to prevent tartar and bacteria buildup on the teeth.
  • Visit our dental clinic every six months for a dental checkup and full-mouth cleaning.
