Hello.

We are 서울디아치과, a dental clinic providing attentive care and earning your trust at Magok Station.

These days, when I look at social media,

I notice so many photos of bright white smiles.

Celebrities, influencers,

and even friends around me.

It is easy to find yourself thinking,

“Should I try it, too?” Haha.

But once you start looking into it,

you may begin to wonder:

“Can I get it done, too?”

“Is it okay while I’m pregnant?”

“I have a tooth that is currently being treated…”

That’s right. Teeth whitening

isn’t actually suitable for everyone.

It is important to first check

whether it is right for your condition.

Today, 서울디아치과 will clearly explain

which cases are suitable for teeth whitening

and which are not.

Cases Suitable for Teeth Whitening

1. Cases with extrinsic staining

This refers to staining on the tooth surface

caused by coffee, black tea, red wine, smoking, and so on.

This is the type of case

where whitening effects are most noticeable.

2. Cases where the teeth have yellowed naturally with age

Even when teeth have naturally become discolored

as you get older,

teeth whitening can be effective.

3. When you have a special event coming up,

such as a wedding, celebration, or trip

With one-day professional whitening,

you can quickly achieve brighter teeth

in just one visit.

These Cases Require Careful Consideration

1. During pregnancy or breastfeeding

Whitening ingredients

may affect the fetus or baby.

For safety, it is best to proceed

after childbirth and once breastfeeding has ended.

2. If you are under 18

This is a period when the teeth and nerves

are still developing fully.

We recommend proceeding

after reaching adulthood.

3. If your teeth are extremely sensitive

For people who are already very sensitive

to cold or hot foods and drinks,

sensitivity after whitening may become more severe.

It is best to check the condition of your teeth first

and then decide whether to proceed.

4. If your teeth have cracks

If there are tiny cracks in the teeth,

whitening ingredients may penetrate deeply through them,

which can cause severe sensitivity or pain.

Whitening Is Not Possible in These Cases

Magok Teeth Whitening_Gum Inflammation

1. If you have cavities or gum problems

Whitening cannot be performed

while cavities or gum inflammation are present.

Treatment must be completed first,

after which whitening can be performed.

2. If you have many dental restorations

If you have many restorations on your front teeth,

such as crowns, laminates, or resin,

only the natural teeth may become lighter after whitening,

creating a color difference from the restorations.

In such cases,

it is best to make a plan

that includes replacing the restorations.

3. If you have severe intrinsic discoloration

When the teeth are discolored deep inside,

as with tetracycline staining,

ordinary whitening has little effect.

In these cases,

laminates may be a more suitable option.

Be Sure to Check These Things Before Whitening

With teeth whitening,

the most important first step

is to check the condition of your teeth.

Starting without proper evaluation

may result in no effect

or discomfort.

In many cases, these issues

could have been prevented with an evaluation beforehand.

At 서울디아치과,

we carefully check the condition of your teeth before whitening

and provide detailed guidance on

whether whitening is suitable

or whether another treatment should come first.
