While stumbling around, I found this comment made by a dentist. Everyone wants to get white teeth like those Hollywood celebrities. Everyone wants to get a piece of the sparkling, white teeth. But when one is obessesed with it and carry it too far, do you know that we can end up with blue teeth? Using the zoom process, i.e. 25% hydrogen peroxide to bleach the teeth, one can get very visible results. And when you are not satisfied, the dentist will give you a tray of DIY teeth whitening and you can carry on doing it at home.
But warned, the dentist :
Obsessing about a flawless smile can have its side effects.
“Sensitivity of your teeth and you can have gum irritation,” says Dr. Simon.
“The hydrogen peroxide can leach onto the gums and turn your gums a white color but that doesn’t mean it’s going to have an irreversible effect.”
Dr. Simon says no matter what avenue you take to whitening perfection, if you overdo it your teeth could take on a bluish tint.
“Most of the blueness people see are because their teeth are getting so whitened there’s trans-illumination of the light showing through the enamel,” he says.
Do read and know what you are in for if you are going for teeth whitening and know what will happened if you get obsessed with white teeth. Full story here
