How Much Does Teeth Whitening Cost In Mexico?
By coming to our dental clinic in Cancun, you will have a variety of options for teeth whitening: Laser whitening for $150 USD, Zoom whitening for $250 USD, and whitening trays for $75 USD.
What Kind Of Teeth Whitening Method Should I Choose?
At Cancun Dental Design, we offer the best teeth whitening procedures. Laser whitening, zoom whitening, and whitening trays are proven methods that can make your teeth look up to six shades whiter. Which one you should get is a matter of preference or professional recommendation.
Laser Teeth Whitening Procedure
The laser teeth whitening procedure uses a strong whitening gel that is applied to the teeth and then gets photo-activated by the heat of a laser beam, causing a chemical reaction known as oxidation, which penetrates the tooth enamel and reaches the dentine. This process helps to remove the stains and whiten your teeth.
Zoom Whitening Procedure
Zoom teeth whitening follows the same process as laser whitening but replaces the laser beam with a high-powered ultraviolet lamp. Zoom whitening brings quicker results thanks to its powerful photo-activation, which can make your teeth look up to four shades whiter in a single session.
Teeth Whitening Trays
Whitening trays are custom molds made of a flexible material, which fits on your teeth. This mold uses a special bleaching gel (Hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide) to whiten your teeth as you use the mouth guard daily for some hours. We highly recommend this option to most patients.
Laser Teeth Whitening Vs Zoom Whitening
Both, laser and zoom whitening are fantastic methods to get whiter and brighter teeth, but if you wish for faster results, Zoom whitening is the one to choose. Laser whitening will also give you whiter teeth, but the results will take a bit longer to notice right after the procedure.
Keep in mind that you may need more than a single session to whiten your teeth to your desire. It will depend on the condition of your teeth.
White Diet After Teeth Whitening: Specialists’ Suggestions
Our patients need to follow a careful aftercare routine to preserve the whiteness of their teeth as long as possible after a whitening procedure. We want to give you a guide on the white diet to enjoy your favorite food while keeping your teeth perfect.
What To Eat After Teeth Whitening?
For the next 48 hours after your whitening treatment, you should only eat food that doesn’t color your teeth, this is known as The White Diet and consists of eating: rice, natural yogurt, bananas, scrambled eggs, apple, pears, potatoes, sushi, chicken, turkey, any white cheese, clear sodas, milk, and steamed fish.

Frequently Asked Questions For Teeth Whitening
Am I A Candidate For Teeth Whitening?
Not every patient is a candidate for a teeth whitening treatment. People with dental sensitivity, periodontal diseases, gingivitis (bleeding gums), tooth erosion, cavities, or severely stained teeth can´t whiten their teeth. You can contact us for a personalized consultation if you want to know if you can get a teeth whitening.
How Long Does Professional Teeth Whitening Last?
The effects of professional teeth whitening can last from 6 months to a couple of years. It all depends on the care that you give to your teeth after the treatment and how your teeth react to the whitening process.
Can I Get A Teeth Whitening On My Crowns/Veneers?
Crowns and veneers are custom-made replacements for natural teeth and can´t be whitened after being cemented. Your crowns or veneers’ color is decided before the cementation. If you want whiter crowns or veneers, you will have to replace them with new ones.
How Long Does Teeth Whitening Take At The Clinic?
To get a teeth whitening you will have to be at the clinic for an hour in the case of zoom and laser whitening.
Can Teeth Whitening Damage Gums?
Before starting the teeth whitening process, the dentist will cover your gums with a special gel to isolate them from the chemical bleaching agent. This protective gel will ensure that your gums don’t suffer any damage or irritation.
Why Does Teeth Whitening Cause Sensitivity?
Having sensitivity in your teeth after a teeth whitening procedure is completely normal, and it is caused by the chemical reaction that the bleaching agent has on your dentine. However, the sensitivity will disappear in a matter of hours.
Why Do Teeth Get Yellow Or Stained?
The most common reasons for teeth to get yellow or stained are:
• The natural aging process
• Poor dental hygiene habits
• Smoking and other forms of tobacco use
• Illness, certain medications, and Fluorosis
• Consumption of certain drinks and foods, including tea, wine, coffee, and soda.
How Does Teeth Whitening Works?
Teeth Whitening occurs as oxygen molecules from the whitening agent spread throughout the tooth and react with the discolored molecules in your teeth. This means that the entire tooth is whitened, even if the whitening gel isn’t in contact with every part of the enamel.
Can Teeth Whitening Cause Receding Gums?
Teeth whitening can cause gum recession only if the process gets repeated constantly. This is because of the bleaching agent, and the gel used to protect your gums from it.
How Often Can You Get Your Teeth Whitened?
Getting teeth whitening should not be a common practice. We recommend undergoing this procedure within 4 to 6 months between each teeth whitening to minimize the chance of getting further dental issues.
