Is Teeth Whitening Safe or Damaging?
Acid and acid alone is the only thing that can damage the guns or the structure of a tooth!
So yes, if the whitening gel being used is acidic then it will damage the structure of your teeth and gums, so before you get your teeth whitened always ask the technician or dentist the pH level of the whitening gel being used as it should be perfectly matched to the natural pH level of your saliva!
If the dentist or whitening technical does not know this fundamental information, then perhaps you should reconsider having this person carry out the procedure!
Heat will irritate the nerves found in teeth and damage the soft tissue in your mouth so always ensure that the light emitted from the laser unit is being filtered to remove the heat and harmful frequencies of light such as ultra violet and infra red light.
If you have an overnight home kit that comprises of a mouth guard that is filled with gel and worn over night, this can cause gum disease and should be avoided!
The system and gels we use have been proven to actually be good for your teeth. Research has shown that clean teeth free from plaque naturally re-enamelize and as well as whitening your teeth, our whitening gel leaves your teeth perfectly clean, furthermore research has shown the frequency of light used by our laser kills the bacteria that causes destructive gum disease.
