When done properly, such as with the assistance of a professional dentist, teeth whitening does not damage the enamel. Sensitivity is the most common side effect of teeth whitening. However, this should subside within a few days to a week post-treatment. Other potential side effects can include:
- Mouth soreness and redness
- Gum irritation
All side effects are temporary. Practitioners at The Chicago Dental Studio are highly trained and experienced to reduce the risk of side effects.
