Will whitening my teeth cause any damage and is it safe?

Teeth whitening is a well-established procedure that is both safe and effective. Clinical studies have shown that the bleaching gel does not damage the teeth when used under direct dental supervision. There can be some minor sensitivity shortly after whitening in some patients, but bleaching carries with it no adverse
side effects.

We do not recommend the over-the-counter consumer tray bleaching systems because the trays seldom fit precisely which causes burning of the gum tissue. Come see Dr. Pinedo and get your teeth whitened safely and correctly.
