What it is

What
teeth whitening involves

Teeth whitening is an aesthetic treatment that lightens the colour of teeth using active agents based on hydrogen peroxide or carbamide. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional whitening uses higher concentrations applied under clinical control, ensuring safer, more predictable, and longer-lasting results.

The whitening agent penetrates the tooth enamel to break down colour molecules accumulated over time from tobacco, coffee, wine, or tea. It does not damage the enamel when performed correctly under professional supervision. Results are visible from the first session and can be maintained for 1 to 3 years with appropriate habits and periodic touch-ups.

At Alldent Benalmádena, we perform a preliminary examination before any whitening treatment: we check the condition of the enamel, rule out active cavities or severe sensitivity, and determine which system best suits your case. Whitening is also the usual preliminary step before a smile design with veneers, ensuring all teeth start from the lightest possible shade.

Types of teeth whitening
at Alldent

We offer three whitening systems depending on the intensity of the desired result, available time, and each patient’s preferences.

01

In-clinic Whitening (single session)

The fastest and most effective system. A high concentration of hydrogen peroxide activated by LED light is applied in a single 60-90 minute session at the clinic. Results are immediately visible upon leaving the practice: 4 to 8 shades lighter. Indicated when seeking maximum results in the shortest time.

02

At-home Whitening (custom trays)

A more gradual system but with equally permanent results. Custom silicone trays are made from a scan of your mouth. You apply the whitening gel at home for 1-2 hours a day, or overnight, for 2-3 weeks. Greater control over the process and the possibility of future touch-ups with the same gel.

03

Combined Whitening (in-clinic + at-home)

This option offers the most comprehensive and long-lasting results. It begins with an intensive in-clinic whitening session and is complemented by at-home trays to stabilise and consolidate the result. Recommended for severe stains or for those seeking the maximum level of lightening.

Frequently asked questions about teeth whitening in Benalmádena

It depends on the starting point and the system used. For in-clinic whitening, the usual result is between 4 and 8 shades lighter. The combined system can achieve up to 10-12 shades. The free preliminary examination allows for a personalised estimate based on the current condition of your enamel.

Professionally performed teeth whitening does not hurt. Transient sensitivity may occur during the first 24-48 hours after the in-clinic session: teeth may react temporarily to cold or heat. This sensitivity disappears on its own. For patients with prior sensitivity, we adapt the protocol to minimise it.

Between 1 and 3 years, depending on the patient’s habits: consumption of coffee, tea, wine, or tobacco, and daily oral hygiene. With moderate habits and occasional use of at-home maintenance trays, the result can be extended for several years. It is the dental aesthetic treatment with the best result-price ratio.

No. Whitening agents only act on natural tooth enamel. Porcelain veneers, crowns, and composite fillings do not whiten. That is why it is important to perform whitening before any aesthetic restoration, so that the shade of artificial pieces can match the new natural tooth colour.

The clinic will perform a preliminary examination to verify that the enamel is in good condition. If there is tartar or extrinsic stains, a professional cleaning is done first. If there are active cavities, they must be treated before starting. There are no specific prior dietary restrictions.

Yes, provided it is performed by a professional and on healthy enamel. Over-the-counter products can damage enamel or gums if used without supervision or by patients with sensitivity or cavities. Professional whitening at Alldent always includes a preliminary examination and uses certified products with safe concentrations.
