What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is an aesthetic procedure that gives a smile a brighter and more radiant appearance. It can be done professionally in a clinic or at home with custom aligners.

- The teeth are isolated with a special gingival barrier.
- A whitening agent activated with LED light is applied.
- The procedure lasts about 10 minutes and is repeated 2–4 times depending on the desired result.
At the end, instructions are given for maintaining the effect.
What teeth are suitable for whitening?
The Beyond Professional System is effective in most patients, especially for yellowing from smoking, coffee, or tea.
How long does the effect last?
Typically, the result lasts between 2 and 5 years, depending on the patient’s care and habits.
Is whitening with the Beyond system safe?
Yes. The procedure is safe because the lamp works with cold light at a low temperature.
