What is teeth whitening?
Tooth whitening is the process of bleaching natural teeth using whitening agent commonly hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. External stains on teeth are dissipated by the bleach and makes color less concentrated, thus brighten your teeth. It is therefore a direction many people take when they discover their teeth have been discolored due to aging, by medications and chemicals or stained by beverages such as coffee and certain types of wine.
The teeth whitening process only works on natural teeth. Teeth with bonding, tooth-colored fillings or other restorations will not bleach. Intrinsic teeth discoloration such as tetracycline staining is also not typically removed by teeth whitening. Your dentist may recommend veneers, which cover the entire tooth, instead of whitening in such instances. However, professional whitening is easy and safe and is a non-invasive way to restore a healthy appearance to the teeth.
