If you are considering whitening your teeth you can find all kinds of information about the various ways to go about it. You need only search the websites pertaining to cosmetic dental procedures to see it.

There are a lot of comparisons for example, between professional whitening methods and the whitening kits that you can buy over the counter to apply at home. Most people who read a list of the pros and cons for both approaches come away believing that a professional treatment is more likely to result in a better outcome, with much less time involved.

The most important consideration should be your personal safety. One of the side effects of whitening your teeth is increased sensitivity of the teeth and gums. Your dentist can monitor and adjust the strength of the whitening bleach when he applies the formula as an in office procedure.

There is a cost discrepancy however. A professional whitening therapy will be substantially more expensive than a home remedy. If that is an issue you may prefer to use an over the counter whitening product that has been recommended by your dentist or hygienist. Be careful not over do it and if you experience irritation or pain call your dentist right away.
