Can anyone give me all the details about this special tooth whitener?
It's a gel and a syringe and a specially-made dental mold that you keep on your teeth for a while that I purchase from the dentist. What's it called? Can you use it to whiten veneers? How's it work? Does it whiten more the longer you keep it on?
Answers:
All whiteners contain bleach and you should be aware they can cause extreme tooth sensitivity after use. Veneers may whiten a little if they are stained but are not porous like real enamel. There is a limit both to the time you can keep it on and the amount of lightening depending on the shade your teeth are to begin with. I suggest if you do use the whitener you take care to avoid getting it on your lips and gums since it can 'burn' them and cause blistering.
