Gentle tooth whitening for naturally bright teeth — individual, safe, controlled
Bright teeth — natural and safe
Professional teeth whitening enables a significant brightening of your natural tooth color. Unlike over-the-counter products, we work with controlled concentrations under dental supervision — for a safe, predictable result without damaging tooth enamel.
Our whitening methods
In-Office Bleaching
Professional whitening directly in the practice. The bleaching gel is applied under controlled conditions. Duration: approx. 60 to 90 minutes. Immediately visible results.
Home Bleaching
Individually fabricated trays for at-home use. The bleaching gel is applied at a lower concentration over several days to weeks.
Internal Bleaching
Whitening of individual root canal treated teeth from the inside. The bleaching agent is placed inside the tooth and works over several days.

Examination
Dental examination to determine suitability. Cavities and gum disease must be treated beforehand.

Professional dental cleaning (PZR) to remove deposits and stains — prerequisite for an even result.
Color determination
Determination of current tooth color and setting the desired degree of whitening.
Bleaching
Application of the bleaching gel and controlled exposure under dental supervision.

Costs and reimbursement
Teeth whitening is a purely private service and is not covered by statutory health insurance in Germany. Costs range from 250 to 600 euros depending on the method. A professional dental cleaning (PZR) precedes every treatment. We advise you transparently about all costs.
Is bleaching harmful?
Professional bleaching with modern agents (carbamide peroxide, hydrogen peroxide) is enamel-safe when professionally applied. Studies confirm that controlled concentrations do not permanently damage tooth enamel. Temporary tooth sensitivity may occur in the first days after treatment and typically subsides quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Whitening
Is teeth whitening harmful to teeth?
Professional bleaching with modern agents is enamel-safe when applied by a dental professional. Studies show that carbamide peroxide and hydrogen peroxide in controlled concentrations do not permanently damage tooth enamel. Temporary tooth sensitivity may occur in the first days after treatment.
How long do results last?
Results from professional bleaching typically last 1 to 3 years, depending on dietary and lifestyle habits. Coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco can cause the whitening to fade faster. Regular professional dental cleaning (PZR) extends the results.
Who is suitable for teeth whitening?
Bleaching is suitable for adults with healthy teeth and healthy gums. The prerequisite is a cavity-free baseline and the absence of untreated gum disease. Pregnant women, nursing mothers, and individuals under 18 should refrain from bleaching.
Are crowns and fillings also whitened?
No. Bleaching only affects natural tooth structure. Crowns, fillings, veneers, and bridges do not change color. Existing restorations may need to be color-matched after bleaching if necessary.
What does professional teeth whitening cost?
Professional teeth whitening is a purely private service and is not covered by statutory health insurance in Germany. Costs range from 250 to 600 euros depending on the method. A prior consultation with an individual cost estimate is standard.
