WHAT ARE THE RISK OF TEETH WHITENING AT HOME? 1. Tooth Sensitivity: Whitening agents, especially those with peroxide, can make teeth more sensitive to hot or cold. 2. Gum Irritation: If the whitening gel comes into contact with gums, it can cause irritation or even burns. 3. Enamel Damage: Overusing whitening products or using them incorrectly can weaken the enamel, making teeth more prone to decay. 4. Uneven Whitening: At-home kits may not fit perfectly, leading to inconsistent results. 5. Allergic Reactions: Some people may react to the chemicals in whitening products. It's always a good idea to consult with us at Rootz Dental Care Navalur before starting any whitening treatment to ensure it's safe for your teeth and gums.
