Cosmetic and general dentists vary significantly in their education, skills, and experience. They also vary in the techniques and materials they use to treat their patients. Dr. Elseweifi has been doing laser teeth whitening since 1997. He has done thousands of cases already. Many offices advertise laser teeth whitening while only using Zoom light, which is far less effective.

The SHP Laser teeth whitening procedure is safe and comfortable. Special eye protection goggles are used by the patient, dentist, and assistants. While the procedure is done, patients may even comfortably listen to music.

The new Laser teeth whitening technology uses an actual diode laser to activate a special whitening gel. The diode laser causes the Hydrogen Peroxide gel to break down releasing oxygen. This process enables the oxygen atoms to lighten discolorations of enamel and dentin while preserving the structure of the tooth. Laser teeth whitening, and whitening in general, are not recommended for children and pregnant or lactating women. The laser teeth whitening process is effective on most teeth discolorations. Some stains, such as those caused by antibiotics, can be more challenging. The degree of whiteness will vary from patient to patient.
