Teeth can become coloured in a way that may not be aesthetically acceptable to you when you smile. Modern tooth whitening systems are highly effective and often have dramatic results. Many celebrities consistently whiten their teeth to improve their appearance.

Patients may experience some gum or tooth sensitivity when using their trays. These symptoms subside when whitening is discontinued for several days.

Occasionally, teeth may be stained in a way that limits the effectiveness of tooth whitening. In those instances, porcelain laminates or crowns are an excellent alternative.
