If you’re unhappy with your stained, dull or yellowing teeth, chances are you’ve already tried at least one of the myriad over-the-counter teeth whitening products available back home; also, the chances are, they haven’t made much of a difference.

In most cases, to achieve truly noticeable results without risking your oral health, you need to undergo laser teeth whitening in a professional setting.

This treatment uses a light-activated bleaching gel containing hydrogen peroxide. After being applied to the teeth with a rubber guard used to keep the mouth open and gums protected, an LED light is applied which activates the bleaching agents in the gel, thus removing stubborn staining and discolouration.

The process may involve one single application for between 30–45 minutes, or two or three individual applications, each around 15–20 minutes long.

This will depend on your desired results (i.e. the degree of whitening you want to achieve), as well as the particular brand of system used.

Popular whitening brands that may be used by our partner dentists in Hungary include:

• ZOOM!®
• BriteSmile®
• LaserSmile®
• KoR Deep Whitening®

Mosonmagyaróvár, situated in the very northwestern corner of Hungary, draws comparison with Mexico’s Los Algodones, aka “Molar City,” considered one of the dental tourism capitals of the world. This is for three main reasons:

• Dental care here is inexpensive
• The quality of care is high
• It’s predominantly a drive-to market, with patients able to easily arrive by car from Austria, just as Americans drive south across the border into Algodones.

Similar to Mexico’s Molar City, Mosonmagyaróvár boasts the highest concentration of clinics in the entire country. As a result, this sleepy town is now expanding, with plenty of new hotels, Western-style restaurants, modern cafes and shopping centres to cater to the 150,000 international arrivals every year.

Also known as “Ovar,” the town is nestled in the heart of Europe’s very own “ Golden Triangle ” comprised of Budapest, Hungary and Austria.

How Do I Get to Mosonmagyaróvár?

Most international arrivals drive over the nearby land border with Austria or Slovakia, with the motorway linking the town to both Bratislava and Vienna.

Transport options are summarised below:

• By car via Vienna, Bratislava (both under an hour) or Budapest (around two hours)
• By train (with rail tickets from Vienna and Budapest available on a daily basis)
• By plane (as detailed in the next section)
