Tea Lover Meets Teeth Whitening

[louiseOli]

I’m a tea lover.. When I gave up coffee two years ago, I turned all my caffeine habit to tea. From green to detox teas, I’ve tried them all. But what I wasn’t ready for in my tea diet was its effect to my teeth. Like coffee, tea stains or discolors the teeth. And because of that I had to go to my dentist for a teeth whitening and implant crown procedure last week.

My best friend recommended an at home teeth whitening product to me. But I don’t trust myself to do the treatment by myself, so I still go to my dentist for the procedure. I know I’ll save more if I do it myself, but I have a slight obsessive-compulsive behavior. I might overuse the product and cause damage to my teeth.

If you’re like me, it’s best to just leave the treatment to our dentist. Over-the-counter kits can be less expensive, but if it means damage and irritation in our mouth, leave the procedure to the experts. Although teeth whitening are unlikely to cause serious side effects, still you may experience sensitivity and irritation in the mouth. So, the best thing to do is leave the job to a dentist.
