Over-the-counter teeth whitening kits are readily available in almost any dental supply aisle you come across. The majority of them promise incredible results, but many people still wonder, “Does whitening your teeth damage them?”
Whitening your teeth can cause sensitivity, which certainly is a form of damage. Luckily, this type of mild damage can be avoided by using a whitening product that's designed to be gentle on teeth — and just as effective as more intense methods of whitening.
CustMbite's Teeth Whitening Kit and Gentle Whitening Foam are two products that use a gentler whitening solution. In fact, it's so gentle you can use it overnight without developing the temporary damage that can be so uncomfortable. Let's talk about why whitening causes sensitivity and how to avoid it.
In general, whitening kits aren't going to damage your teeth permanently. However, there is the distinct possibility of temporary sensitivity, especially when you use a whitening kit that's not designed for sensitive teeth.
Whitening products work by putting your teeth in contact with a product containing the active ingredient. Damage is caused by the bleaching agent that's used by typical whitening products. Teeth whitening kits are often based on hydrogen peroxide-based solutions, which can be especially harsh.
Teeth whitening products with a high concentration of active ingredients are more likely to cause temporary damage to the tooth, particularly if they contain hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is an effective chemical when it comes to whitening teeth, but the way it attacks stains can open up tubules to the dentin (the inner layer of your tooth that contains nerve endings).
Hydrogen peroxide works by attacking stains with volatile oxygen molecules. You'll see the same reaction when you pour it over a cut or abrasion. You'll also notice that the reaction slows quite quickly. That's because hydrogen peroxide acts quickly and intensely. This type of action can cause the aforementioned damage, leading to pain and sensitivity.
Absolutely! When you choose a whitening kit, you'll want to look for a kit that's compatible with a gentle, foam-based solution. Gels tend to be harsher on the teeth.
You'll also want to look for a whitening foam that used carbamide peroxide as it's a much gentler option than hydrogen peroxide. Carbamide peroxide works just as effectively, but it works over time instead of all at once. Because it releases its volatile oxygen molecules more slowly, they get less of a chance to penetrate all the way through to the dentin. By taking a gentler approach, you have less of a risk of damaging your teeth.
If you're asking yourself, “Does whitening your teeth damage them?”, wonder no more. CustMbite's Teeth Whitening Kit and Gentle Whitening Foam are the answer you're looking for. With an 8% carbamide peroxide concentration, the whitening foam can be used several times a day or even overnight. The Teeth Whitening Kit comes with two customizable whitening trays, ensuring the foam stays where it needs to be, which helps to avoid damage to your gums and tongue too.
