Bleaching

Bleaching provides a conservative method of lightening teeth.  There is no way to predict to what extent a tooth will lighten.  In  a few instances, teeth may be resistant to the bleaching process and other treatment alternatives may be advised.  Infrequently, side effects such as tooth hyper-sensitivity and gum tissue irritation may be experienced.  If these symptoms occur, technique modifications or products can usually alleviate the problem(s).
