Bleaching is better or composite?

Bleaching or composite / In today's world, the beauty of teeth, especially changing the color and shape of teeth, is very important for people. Many people are looking for the right way to correct their smile design. One of the most important concerns of people is the whitening of their teeth. The most frequent and important question in this field is whether teeth bleaching is the only suitable solution for whitening teeth, or can composite veneers be a better option? Bleaching and composite coating are two completely different methods and each has its own application. As you know, bleaching is one of the methods of teeth whitening, and despite the different ways of teeth whitening and the different costs of each one, the question arises as to which method is better and more permanent for teeth whitening? The first step to choose the best method is that a person should consult a dentist for advice on choosing the right teeth whitening method. Because the knowledge and experience of a specialist dentist is very effective in choosing the most correct treatment path. Also, the person's goal in deciding this matter is very important. In bleaching, a strong bleaching agent (hydrogen peroxide) is used to remove tooth stains and whiteness and shine. Also, tooth bleaching is less durable than composite, and it is important to observe oral and dental hygiene and avoid eating foods with pigments in both bleaching and composite methods, but it is more important in bleaching because of its higher sensitivity.

Use of teeth bleaching

Bleaching is only effective in removing stains, and unlike tooth composite, it does not lead to aligning and straightening teeth and correcting the bad shape of teeth, while dental composite is one of the best and most effective methods of eliminating minor tooth defects and thus correcting the smile design.

Can composite guarantee white teeth?

Composite veneer is one of the safest, best and fastest ways to make teeth more beautiful. But this issue is not the reason for not taking care of the teeth. By eating food, the pigments in the food stick to the enamel of the teeth and change the color over time. Therefore, care such as regular brushing and flossing and quitting smoking should make teeth whiter last longer.

How does tooth bleaching play a role in whitening teeth?

Bleaching or whitening of teeth is used to remove the dark color or pigments that develop on the teeth over time. Hydrogen peroxide, which is a chemical used in bleaching, leads to lightening the color of the teeth. In fact, these substances penetrate into the structure of the tooth enamel and cause the oxidation of the pigments deposited in the tooth enamel. These oxidizing materials penetrate into the dentine in the lower layer of the enamel and cause its color to become brighter. Bleaching is done in two ways. Bleaching in the office and bleaching at home.

Disadvantages of teeth bleaching

As we said, the treatment goal in bleaching is only to brighten the color of the teeth and there is no other goal. If you have untidy teeth, or you are unhappy with their shape, or you want too much whiteness, bleaching is not the right treatment for you, and you should go for another treatment, such as composite veneers or dental laminates. Bleaching does not provide the same result in all patients. Each person responds to the treatment to a certain extent, and in some cases, there may be no change in the color of the teeth. The return of the tooth color to its original state, which depends on the diet and the use of dyes and tobacco, can happen. Therefore, it is better to know that bleaching is a temporary treatment and it is possible to reverse the result.

The difference between composite coating and tooth bleaching

Difference in the presentation of these two methods The method of teeth whitening in the office is very simple. In this way, the cosmetic dentist first examines the teeth for the presence of tooth decay and then cleans them. After cleaning the teeth, a whitening agent is placed on the teeth and pauses for a few minutes, this process is repeated several times. The entire in-office bleaching process takes about an hour, but multiple visits are usually required to achieve optimal results. Also, bleaching can be done through laser. Laser teeth whitening usually works faster and provides more consistent results than at-home methods. Dental composite veneer placement is slightly more invasive than bleaching. To install a composite veneer, the patient must have healthy teeth and enamel. To provide a composite veneer, the condition of the patient's teeth is checked first, and any decay or other oral diseases must be removed before the composite veneer is applied. Some enamel may be chipped to install composite veneers, but generally less than with ceramic laminate veneers. Then the cosmetic dentist places the composite materials on the teeth and after the materials are hardened using UV light, they make the materials into the shape and form of the teeth and finally polish them to make them shine. The entire dental composite process can take several hours during one dental appointment.
Difference in color
For more severe cases of teeth discoloration, dental composite veneers and dental laminates are better options. Composite and laminate veneers can choose the exact shade of white that the patient likes for their teeth. difference in durability Teeth bleaching does not last long. Meanwhile, the durability of dental composite can last up to 5 years or even more. If a person takes proper care of composite veneers, he can enjoy the color of his teeth and a beautiful smile for a long time. But bleaching can quickly change the color and therefore the durability of dental composite is much longer than the lifespan of bleaching. Usually, bleaching should be repeated once a year.
Treatment of other dental problems
In addition to changing the color and whitening of the teeth, composite veneer can solve other problems of the teeth, such as cracks, fractures, filling the lips of the teeth, filling the gaps between them, malformations and filling the front teeth are easily solved with composite veneer. Composite veneer is a method of correcting the smile design, while tooth bleaching only changes the color of the teeth.

Choose tooth bleaching or composite?

People who only care about whiter teeth can consider teeth bleaching as an effective option. But if, in addition to teeth whitening, you are looking for teeth beautification (restoration, shaping, etc.), composite veneers and dental laminates can be the right choice. Both methods are suitable for teeth whitening, and their care methods are more important than the procedure itself. Correcting a smile with composite has a special appeal, even more than bleached teeth. Also, the cost of whitening teeth with teeth bleaching or composite is more suitable than dental laminate. People who only intend to whiten their teeth usually use these two methods.
