- Abstract
Due to continuous growing of aesthetic demands, especially regarding tooth color, the request of whitening in dental practice has increased exponentially over the last years. For many persons, discolouration of even a single tooth can negatively influence the quality of life. Therefore, this review article discusses clinical aspects including aetiology of tooth discolouration, various tooth whitening products, different types of bleaching regimes with a short description of two clinical cases, potential side effects and also indications and contraindications for bleaching techniques. The goal of modern dentistry is maximum preservation of tooth substance with excellent esthetics. Bleaching alone, or in combination with minimally invasive adhesive dentistry, very often fulfils this goal without the need of much more destructive techniques such as abrasion, veneers or crowns.
