Does bleaching damage the teeth?
Teeth whitening is completely safe when supervised by a dentist. The only disadvantage of teeth whitening is temporary sensitivity in some people. This sensitivity usually only lasts one day. There are different methods of teeth whitening including a take home whitening kit or in the dental office 1hr teeth whitening by the dentist vaughan. Both methods are equally effective.
• Usually, Not! When carbamide peroxide, the active whitening agent, contacts water, hydrogen peroxide is released which whitens the teeth. Bleaching does not soften, demineralize or weaken the teeth. However, there are some evidences that over-the-counter bleaching products do whiten teeth, but, many of the products are too abrasive and can damage the teeth with extended use or misuse. Supervision by your dentist is always the safest and most effective way to whiten your teeth.
