Teeth whitening is generally safe, especially when done professionally, but like any cosmetic treatment, it can come with a few temporary side effects.
1. Tooth Sensitivity
Some people may notice a mild tingling or sensitivity to hot and cold after whitening, but this usually fades within a day or two. Using toothpaste for sensitive teeth can help combat any discomfort.
2. Gum Irritation
Our team at Vienna Family Dental takes extra precautions to prevent gum irritation. However, some people may still notice some minor irritation that should clear up quickly. Professional teeth treatments use high-quality whitening agents and proper techniques to reduce the chance of side effects so you get the best results with minimal risk.
3. Staining
It’s also important to avoid staining foods and drinks like coffee or red wine immediately after treatment, as your teeth may be more porous and prone to staining for a short time.
