Teeth Whitening

Get a dazzling smile as a result of photo bleaching with a guarantee of gentle action. In the Kiadent clinic, you can undergo professional teeth whitening cheaper than in other clinics in Odessa.

If your smile has lost its luster over time and your teeth have become yellowed or stained, Kiadent Dentistry is here to help. Our professional teeth whitening treatments can restore your teeth's natural brightness, correcting discoloration caused by coffee, tea, smoking, and other lifestyle factors. You can achieve dramatically whiter teeth in just one office visit, with results that last for years.

At our Odesa clinic, we offer safe and effective teeth whitening solutions using advanced technology that protects your enamel while delivering exceptional results.

Why Do Teeth Change Color?

Everyone's natural tooth color is unique, but enamel can darken over time due to various factors:

External factors: Regular consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, berries, and carbonated beverages can stain teeth. Smoking is one of the primary causes of enamel darkening and stubborn plaque formation.

Internal factors: Age-related changes (enamel naturally thins with age, making the yellowish dentin layer more visible), genetics, certain medications (such as tetracycline antibiotics), dental trauma, and fluorosis.

Poor oral hygiene: Plaque and tartar buildup also contribute to tooth discoloration.

How Does Professional Teeth Whitening Work?

The most effective whitening treatments use hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide as active ingredients. When these compounds contact your teeth, they release active oxygen molecules that penetrate the microscopic pores in your enamel and dentin. This process breaks down embedded stains and pigments, significantly lightening your teeth and often making them brighter than their original shade.

Types of Teeth Whitening

At Kiadent Dentistry, we offer modern, safe whitening methods tailored to each patient's needs.

Take-Home Whitening

This treatment allows you to whiten your teeth at home under professional supervision. We create custom-fitted trays from impressions of your teeth, ensuring optimal fit, gentle gum contact, and efficient gel distribution.

The process: Your dentist selects the appropriate whitening gel strength and creates a personalized treatment schedule (typically wearing trays overnight or for 15-30 minutes during the day). You fill the trays with the prescribed gel and wear them as directed. For uneven discoloration, gel application can be customized for specific areas. Treatment duration typically ranges from 7-14 days or until you achieve your desired results.

Results: Teeth typically lighten by 2-3 shades.

Why Is DIY Teeth Whitening Risky?

Dentists strongly advise against unsupervised at-home whitening for several reasons:

Limited effectiveness: Results may be disappointing if individual tooth characteristics aren't considered and inappropriate products are used.
Risk of damage: High risk of tooth damage (increased sensitivity, enamel erosion) and soft tissue injury (chemical burns to gums).
Improper product selection: Only qualified dentists can safely select effective products based on comprehensive oral health evaluation.

Take-home whitening is safe and effective only when prescribed by a dentist using custom trays and professional-grade gel.

Professional In-Office Whitening

This procedure is performed in our clinic under direct supervision of experienced dentists, ensuring maximum safety and predictable results.

Chemical whitening: Uses high-concentration clinical whitening gel applied by trained professionals.

Light-activated whitening: A specialized gel is applied and activated by cool LED light. Our clinic uses modern light-activated systems that are gentle on tooth enamel.

Essential: Pre-Whitening Preparation

Professional dental cleaning must be completed before any whitening procedure. This removes plaque and deposits, significantly improving whitening effectiveness and ensuring more uniform, longer-lasting results.

Which Whitening Method Should You Choose?

Both professional and supervised take-home methods can achieve excellent aesthetic results. However, in-office procedures offer distinct advantages:

Immediate results: Professional whitening delivers results in a single appointment.
Maximum safety: The entire process is monitored by experienced dentists, eliminating risks of chemical burns or enamel damage.
Superior effectiveness: Clinical procedures use higher-concentration formulas and advanced equipment for optimal whitening.

Professional Whitening Methods at Our Clinic

Kiadent Dentistry uses proven, safe professional whitening techniques to make your smile brilliantly white.

Mechanical Whitening (Professional Cleaning)

Professional cleaning is one of the most reliable methods for restoring natural tooth brightness. This approach removes all types of plaque and calculus to reveal your teeth's inherent whiteness. The process includes:

Ultrasonic tartar removal: Effectively eliminates hardened deposits.

Air Flow cleaning: This advanced method uses a specialized handpiece that delivers a pressurized mixture of cleaning powder (silicon dioxide, calcium carbonate) and water to break down plaque bonds and thoroughly clean hard-to-reach areas.

Sequential polishing with specialized pastes and application of protective remineralizing varnish.

Air Flow mechanical cleaning restores your smile's natural whiteness and can lighten enamel by 1-2 shades through external stain removal.

Advantages:

Effective plaque and tartar removal
Prevents cavities and gum disease
Creates a brighter, healthier-looking smile

Limitations:

This is not chemical whitening and cannot change intrinsic tooth color
Cannot achieve dramatic whitening—only restores natural color by removing accumulated stains

Light-Activated Whitening

This popular and highly effective method achieves significant whitening in a single visit. The procedure uses specialized gels evenly applied to tooth surfaces and activated by cool LED light.

The treatment consists of three 15-minute cycles. In each cycle, gel is applied, activated with light, then removed before the next application.

Kiadent Dentistry uses state-of-the-art light-activated systems proven to be both effective and gentle on tooth enamel, delivering outstanding aesthetic results.

Why We Choose Advanced Light-Activated Systems

At Kiadent Dentistry, we use cutting-edge light-activated whitening systems that offer several advantages over older methods like Zoom 4:

Whitening Process at Kiadent Clinic

Step 1: Preparation
Examination and consultation: Your dentist thoroughly examines your oral cavity, assesses tooth and gum health, determines your natural enamel color, and identifies any contraindications. We take "before" photos for visual comparison with your results.
Oral health treatment: If necessary, we treat dental caries, eliminate infections, and resolve gum inflammation.
Professional cleaning (Ultrasonic + Air Flow): This mandatory step is performed 1-2 weeks before whitening. Professional cleaning removes tartar and plaque so whitening gel can work evenly on your enamel while allowing gums to heal after cleaning.
🕑 Timeline:
- Consultation and examination — 1 visit.
- Professional cleaning — 1 visit (~30 minutes).
- Additional treatment — as needed.
Important Note:
In some cases or with specific discoloration, your dentist may recommend additional testing or treating underlying causes of tooth discoloration before proceeding.
Step 2: Whitening Treatment
Gum protection: Soft tissues are carefully protected from whitening gel using specialized barriers (rubber dam isolation).
Tooth preparation: Teeth and gums are treated with vitamin E for additional protection.
Gel application and activation: Whitening gel is evenly applied to enamel surfaces, then activated using LED light for 15 minutes.
Treatment cycles: Excess gel is removed, fresh gel is applied, and the activation process is repeated. This three-cycle process ensures optimal results.
Remineralization: A remineralizing gel is applied to strengthen enamel and reduce sensitivity.
🕑 Total treatment time: Approximately 1.5 hours
Step 3: Post-Treatment Care
"White diet": For 2 weeks following treatment, avoid all foods and beverages that can stain teeth (coffee, tea, red wine, berries, chocolate, sauces, colored sodas).
Specialized products: We recommend special toothpastes and gels to minimize sensitivity and maintain results.
Follow-up remineralization: Return to our clinic two weeks post-treatment for additional remineralization to fully restore and strengthen enamel.

Optimal Whitening Preparation: Plan 2 Weeks Ahead

For the most durable and stable whitening results, begin preparation 2 weeks in advance with mandatory professional dental cleaning.

We then recommend:

Using prescribed antiseptic rinses to restore gum health and remineralizing toothpaste to strengthen enamel
Gradually eliminating staining foods and acidic beverages—coffee, black tea, red wine, berries, brightly colored fruits, chocolate, citrus, carbonated drinks—to "prepare" your teeth for whitening gel exposure

Indications and Contraindications

When Is Professional Teeth Whitening Recommended?

Professional teeth whitening addresses enamel discoloration from various sources, including beverages like coffee and red wine, tobacco use, aging, and even previous endodontic treatments (internal bleaching). Professional whitening effectively lightens teeth darkened by these factors, restoring natural brilliance and significantly enhancing smile aesthetics.

Contraindications for Whitening

Despite the safety of modern techniques, not all patients are suitable candidates. A thorough preliminary examination is essential.

Primary contraindications include:

Allergies to whitening agent components
Severe tooth sensitivity (may be temporary until underlying cause is treated)
Active tooth decay and non-carious lesions (erosion, abfraction)—require treatment before whitening
Gum inflammation (gingivitis, periodontitis)—must be resolved before treatment
Existing dental restorations (crowns, bridges) and fillings in the smile zone: Whitening gel only affects natural enamel. Artificial materials won't lighten, potentially creating color mismatches. Restoration replacement may be necessary after whitening.
Children and adolescents (under 16-18 years when enamel maturation is incomplete)
Pregnancy and nursing: While no direct evidence of harm exists, we recommend postponing treatment as a precaution
Certain medical conditions (thyroid disorders, diabetes mellitus in some cases)
Medications that increase photosensitivity

All contraindications are individually assessed

during your initial consultation. We always recommend comprehensive examination to evaluate dental and gum health before any whitening treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does professional teeth whitening hurt?
Most patients experience no pain during whitening. Modern gels and techniques minimize discomfort. Some may notice mild sensitivity or tingling if enamel has micro-cracks or chips. Minor discomfort may occur during preliminary professional cleaning, so we can provide local anesthesia for your comfort.
Does professional whitening damage teeth?
Modern whitening procedures performed under professional supervision are safe and don't wear down or crack tooth enamel. Whitening agents target pigments within enamel pores. However, hydrogen peroxide temporarily alters tooth mineral structure. Mandatory remineralization after whitening restores this structure. Additionally, we recommend a 2-week "white diet" and remineralizing products containing calcium and fluoride.
What complications can occur?
The most common side effect is temporary tooth sensitivity to temperature (hot/cold) and taste (sweet/sour) stimuli. Discomfort typically lasts several hours to 1-2 days. We recommend sensitivity-reducing toothpastes and avoiding extreme temperatures and acidic foods in the first few days post-treatment.
How long do whitening results last?
Professional whitening results typically last 1-3 years. Longevity depends on individual characteristics and lifestyle habits. Maintain results with proper oral hygiene and regular dental checkups and cleanings (every six months). You may use supervised take-home whitening maintenance (no sooner than 3 months post-treatment and no more than once yearly, with dental consultation).
Why do teeth turn yellow?
Some people naturally have yellowish enamel due to genetics, making the underlying dentin more visible through the enamel.
Additional causes include:
- Dietary stains: Excessive consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, berries, soy sauce, and certain vegetables and fruits
- Tobacco use: Nicotine and tar create persistent yellow-brown stains
- Medications: Such as tetracycline antibiotics taken during childhood
- Medical conditions: Some systemic diseases affect tooth color
- Poor oral hygiene: Infrequent plaque removal leads to darkening
- Aging: Enamel naturally thins over time, making darker dentin more visible

Kiadent Dental Clinic in Odesa offers everyone the opportunity to enhance their smile's attractiveness. We use cutting-edge equipment, premium materials, and our doctors' expertise to achieve stunning, long-lasting results efficiently. Because our dentists use safe formulations, the procedure has minimal contraindications, which are always individually assessed. This treatment can be repeated as needed since enamel may darken again over time from pigmented foods.

Over time, most people experience yellowing that regular toothpastes cannot fully address because food colorants penetrate deeper enamel layers. We recommend incorporating professional teeth whitening into your comprehensive oral care routine.
