Teeth whitening in Lutsk
Whitening lightens the colour of the enamel and removes pigments. We explain the options, preparation and limitations.
In brief
- In-office whitening is one item in the price list; home whitening uses custom trays.
- Professional hygiene is usually done before the procedure.
- Restorations, crowns and fillings do not whiten — the doctor will tell you in advance.
Over time enamel darkens from coffee, tea, wine and smoking. Whitening breaks down these pigments and makes teeth lighter, but it does not change their shape and does not replace treatment.
The doctor assesses the condition of teeth and gums, sensitivity, and the presence of fillings and crowns. If there is decay or inflammation, it is treated first; whitening is planned afterwards.
When whitening is considered
- Enamel has darkened from drinks or smoking
- You want a lighter colour for an event or photos
- After professional hygiene the colour still does not satisfy you
- One treated tooth has darkened — internal whitening is considered

Questions and answers
How much does whitening cost?
In the 2026–2027 price list in-office whitening is a separate item; home whitening is with custom trays. Please confirm the exact amount with the administrator.
Does whitening harm enamel?
Whitening follows a scheme chosen by the doctor, taking the condition of the enamel into account. If there is sensitivity or tooth damage, the doctor may postpone the procedure or suggest another method.
How long does the result last?
It depends on habits: coffee, tea, smoking and care affect the colour. Regular hygiene helps to maintain the result.
Can a crown or filling be whitened?
No, restoration materials do not change colour. If you want to change the colour of the whole smile, the doctor will advise how to coordinate whitening and replacing restorations.
