Can a 15 year old get their teeth whitened at the dentist?

I've got all my permanent teeth, and they're all perfectly straight.





Is 15 too young or can I get it done now?

Reply:Save yourself/parents a fortunes and use some thing you can't buy in shops .........elbow grease.





My daughter at 14 wasn't the most concensious about pbrushing her teeth and her teeth went quite discoloured. I set a rule that she had to brush her teeth til the end of her favourite song. Hey it worked now she bruishes them twice a day for at least 2.5 mins and she don't need no whitening.





Have a go for a week you will notice the difference.
Reply:Yes it can be whitened at a dental clinic. No you arent too young. As long as they give a gel to remineralise your teeth afterwards you will be fine. As for the statement by some1 earlier about elbow grease. It is utter nonsense. The harder you brush your teeth the more you damage your teeth. That is why alot of people as they get older they get more sensitivity even though they dont need any fillings due to decay. Yes Enamel is stronger than your tooth brushbut cementum isn't and unfortunately all those who use the"elbow grease" are just setting themselves up for bigger problems later in life all be it with whiter teeth.


Good Luck
