Laser teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that brightens your smile by removing discoloration from the enamel. During treatment, a professional whitening gel is activated using the Fotona LightWalker laser with TouchWhite technology, accelerating the whitening process while minimizing heat transfer to the tooth. This can deliver noticeable improvements in a single session, helping lift stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, and the natural aging process.
During your consultation, your provider will examine your teeth and oral health, discuss your cosmetic goals, and determine whether laser teeth whitening is the right option for you. You’ll also review your tooth shade, identify the causes of discoloration, and receive personalized recommendations to help you achieve a brighter, natural-looking smile safely.
Your treatment begins with protecting your gums and surrounding soft tissues before a professional whitening gel is applied to your teeth. Your provider then uses the Fotona laser to activate the gel, accelerating the whitening process. The laser energy is absorbed within the gel for efficient treatment, helping brighten your smile comfortably in a single visit.
There is little to no downtime after laser teeth whitening. You can return to your normal routine immediately. You may experience temporary tooth sensitivity, which typically resolves within a day or two. For the best results, you’ll be advised to avoid deeply pigmented foods, beverages, and tobacco for at least 24 to 48 hours while your teeth stabilize after treatment.
You’ll notice a brighter smile immediately after your laser teeth whitening treatment, with your final shade becoming more apparent over the following days. The results last several months or longer, depending on your oral hygiene and lifestyle habits. Periodic touch-up treatments and good dental care can help you maintain a whiter, more radiant smile over time.
Fotona laser teeth whitening uses TouchWhite™ technology, which pairs an Er:YAG laser with a water-based whitening gel. Because the Er:YAG wavelength is easily absorbed by water, the laser energy is absorbed within the gel rather than penetrating the tooth. This activates the whitening agents that break down stain molecules while minimizing heat transfer to the tooth and pulp, allowing for faster, gentler, and more comfortable whitening treatment.
Most patients find laser teeth whitening very comfortable. The TouchWhite™ system is designed to minimize heat transfer to the tooth, reducing any discomfort. You may experience mild, temporary tooth sensitivity afterward, but this typically resolves within a day or two.
Many patients enjoy results for several months or longer. Depending on your lifestyle, diet, and goals, periodic touch-up treatments can help maintain a consistently bright, radiant smile.
