Are bleaching and professional teeth cleaning actually the same thing?

On certain websites and also on social media, there are increasingly posts praising that bleaching can also make teeth cleaner and thus care for the teeth. Today, we want to take a closer look at this claim.

Bleaching - a whitening of the teeth

When bleaching, it is only about whitening the teeth.

The result is bright white teeth that stand out and have an impressive effect on the social environment. The goal of classic bleaching is simply to lighten the teeth. A cleaning can be not to be spoken. This limits the claim on the internet that bleaching also cleans and cares for the teeth. Even with bleaching, plaque can accumulate between the teeth.

Professional teeth cleaning – well-groomed, but not white

In contrast, there is professional teeth cleaning, which is performed by the trusted dentist and is only sometimes covered by health insurance. Here, the teeth are thoroughly cleaned once, and plaque between the teeth and in other hard-to-reach areas of the mouth is also removed. This actively cares for the teeth, removes plaque, and strengthens the tooth enamel. The tooth enamel is essentially the outer protective layer of each tooth, which is repeatedly attacked by food and harmful bacteria. Only fluoride-containing toothpastes can help remineralize it, meaning it can be rebuilt.
