Not everyone should get their teeth whitened, at least not without
professional advice from their dentist.

Here are 6 sets of people who should definitely not proceed with teeth
whitening:

This is because they still have both primary and permanent teeth which each have their own shade of white.

Bleaching their teeth will result in two different shades.

Furthermore, because they are still forming permanent teeth, it is still not
clear what their final natural tooth color will be upon maturity so it’s best
not to tamper with their teeth until they are adults.

Children also have an enlarged nerve channel which makes their teeth
highly sensitive to any work done on their tooth enamels

If you are expecting a child or currently lactating an infant, you should never
whiten your teeth at home.

If you accidentally ingest a tiny amount of whitening chemicals, it could affect
your child.

Always consult your dentist first and wait for an appropriate time to begin
your whitening program.

If you are currently on prescription medication, you should definitely
consult your dentist first so that you don’t have any negative side effects.

If you have always had sensitive teeth, you should not jump into any teeth
whitening plan because you will only make your sensitivity much worse.

The best option is to have your dentist prescribe a customized solution for
you so that you can whiten your teeth without extra pain.

If you wear braces, you should definitely not use a teeth whitener.
http://www.DrMohanty.com
First of all, your metal braces will oxidize when they come into contact
with the whitener and they can change color.

Secondly the whitener will only work on the exposed areas of your teeth so once your remove your braces, your teeth will have different shades of
white.

If you want to whiten your teeth, wait until your braces have been removed.

If you have a history of dental problems such as receding gums, a
worn enamel, exposed roots, veneers, crowns, fillings, gum diseases and so
on, then you must visit your dentist for professional advice.

Teeth whitening in these cases should be done by your dentist in-office or
with dentist-dispensed kits so that you don’t make your dental problems
worse.
