What bleaching methods are available?
In-office bleaching: Professional bleaching at the dentist's office
This method is performed directly at the dentist's office under dental supervision. A highly effective bleaching gel is applied to the teeth and activated with light. The result: immediately visible whitening of the teeth after just one session.
Home bleaching: Bleaching at home with custom trays
We make models of your teeth and produce custom-fit bleaching trays. These are filled with a special bleaching gel and worn for several hours a day (ideally at night) – usually over a period of about a week.
Advantage: The treatment can be repeated as needed after consultation with the dentist. Tip: Especially recommended for refreshing after in-office bleaching.
Important: Adequate fluoridation protects the teeth from possible sensitivity.
Endo bleaching: Internal bleaching of individual root-treated teeth
This method is ideal for discolored, devitalized (root-treated) teeth – especially in the visible front tooth area. The bleaching gel is applied directly to the inside of the tooth, where it remains for up to seven days. The gel is then replaced or removed and the tooth is sealed with plastic.
This is how in-office bleaching works at our practice in 1060 Vienna
- Examination and consultation:
Before treatment, a dental check-up is carried out to ensure that there are no untreated cavities or gum disease. We recommend professional oral hygiene in advance to remove plaque and optimize the effect of the bleaching. - Protection of the gums:
The gums are covered with a special gel or rubber membrane to protect them from the bleaching agent. - Bleaching process:
The bleaching gel is applied and activated with light. Depending on the desired result, the process is repeated several times. - Aftercare:
Finally, we apply a remineralizing fluoride gel to strengthen the teeth and prevent sensitivity.
Is in-office bleaching safe?
Yes – professionally performed bleaching is safe and well tolerated. Mild sensitivity immediately after treatment is possible, but usually disappears within a few days. We can actively prevent this with targeted fluoridation.

Frequently asked questions about teeth whitening (FAQ)
How much does teeth whitening cost?
The cost varies depending on the method used. We would be happy to provide you with a cost estimate during a consultation appointment.
How long does teeth whitening last?
With proper care, the effects can last for several years. Good oral hygiene, regular dental cleanings, and avoiding strongly staining foods are important. To keep your smile bright, we recommend occasional touch-ups with minor bleaching treatments or, after in-office bleaching, the creation of a home bleaching kit to lighten the color of your teeth at home if necessary.
Does bleaching damage the teeth?
No—professional bleaching does not damage the tooth structure. Temporary sensitivity is possible, but usually disappears quickly. Fluoridation helps to protect the enamel.
I have crowns and fillings – will these be bleached too?
No, dental prostheses such as crowns or fillings do not change color. In some cases, this can be an advantage if the natural teeth match the former, lighter color of the restoration. If fillings appear too dark after bleaching, they can be adjusted or replaced at the earliest two weeks after treatment.
Can I choose the degree of tooth whitening?
Yes, the desired degree of whitening is determined individually with you. Depending on the initial color and method, the tooth color can be specifically controlled—always with a view to achieving a natural-looking result.
