complications and side effects
Normally teeth bleaching is a very safe method.
However, do not exaggerate the bleaching! Too frequent bleaching
can hurt the tooth's enamel and nerve. Always ask a dentist if you
are not sure.
Shooting-pain
Shooting-pain is the most common side effect. This stops normally
1-4 days after the bleaching. Use Sensodyne tooth paste.
Irritation
in the gum tissue area
The gum can be irritated if it comes in contact with the bleaching
gel.
The
tooth could become inflamed
If you have cavities, the bleaching gel can penetrate the inner
tooth and cause inflammation. Always repair your cavities before
you bleach your teeth.
Limitations

you have many porcelain crowns or composite fillings. |
The
fillings will not be bleached. Inform yourself how much it is
to have them changed. |
| Amalgam
fillings in the front teeth |
The
teeth can be green. Replace the fillings before treatment. |

are no researches if it's dangerous. Shall be avoided. |
