What is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a safe and effective way to improve your smile in a quick and fairly inexpensive way.
Reasons for teeth whitening:
- Fluorosis (excessive fluoridation during tooth development)
- Normal darkening of the outer tooth layer with aging.
- Stained teeth due to medications (tetracycline, etc.).
- Yellow, brown stained teeth.
- Single dark tooth which had past trauma and became dead.

- Teeth with active decay and cavities, and teeth with leaking or broken old fillings SHOULD NOT be whitened prior to restoring them. Whitening those teeth may cause irreversible damage to their nerves. That’s the reason why Dr. Davé recommends a thorough dental exam with X-rays prior to whitening your teeth.
- Porcelain crowns, veneers or white composite fillings don't change shade with whitening. Dr. Davé can discuss different options with you prior to whitening treatment.
- Teeth whitening can cause or increase your teeth sensitivity for a few days after the procedure. This can be easily managed by the use of toothpaste such as Sensodyne.
