What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that helps lighten the appearance of natural teeth by reducing stains and discoloration. It is sometimes referred to as teeth bleaching.
How long does teeth whitening last?
The duration of whitening results varies from person to person. Many patients notice results lasting several months to a few years, depending on factors such as oral hygiene, diet, lifestyle habits, and the type of staining present.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Teeth whitening is generally considered safe for appropriate candidates when performed correctly and under the supervision of a qualified dentist.
What are the risks of teeth whitening?
The most common side effects of teeth whitening are temporary tooth sensitivity and mild gum irritation. When whitening is used improperly, or without professional guidance, increased sensitivity or uneven results may occur. Whitening is not appropriate for everyone, which is why an evaluation is recommended before treatment.
How often should I get my teeth whitened?
There is no standard schedule for teeth whitening. How often whitening is appropriate depends on individual factors such as tooth sensitivity, oral health, lifestyle habits, and personal preferences. Your dentist can help determine if and when whitening may be appropriate for you.
