Teeth Whitening Safety Tips

* Get a cleaning and exam before starting a whitening routine. We can identify any potential problems and make recommendations for over-the-counter whitening systems.
* Choose an over-the-counter whitening system with a peroxide level between 10 and 20% to avoid tooth sensitivity.
* Follow the directions. Don't leave gels or strips on longer than advised, or you could end up with sensitive teeth or sore gums.
* Avoid whitening your teeth while pregnant or breastfeeding.
* Avoid whitening your teeth too much— once you reach your desired shade, you should only need to whiten your teeth once per month to maintain it.
* Stop whitening your teeth if you experience sensitivity.
