Most people are concerned about making their teeth white but how many of those are ever thought about the potential danger in teeth whitening procedures. To be fair, yes there is a potential risk of chemical reaction to your mouth tissue and teeth.

By and large the potential risk can be minimized and nothing to be worried about but worth looking into.

3 Potential Dangers in Whitening Your Teeth

1) For those people who have sensitive gums and soft mouth tissue, they could respond negatively to the chemicals solutions such as carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide that are normally used in tooth whitening procedures.

Special precaution should be taken if you try to apply these chemicals by yourself at home. Make sure that none of the chemicals come in contact with any mouth tissue except your teeth.

Normally if the procedures is done at the dentist's office the risk could be greatly minimized. The dentist have the professional tools to safeguard your teeth and prevent other mouth tissues from come in contact with the chemicals used.

Some teeth whitening home kits do provide some protection tools such as mouthguard. Since this mouthguard is one size fits all so it may not work very well with everyone. It may fit some people perfectly but may not fit others well.

2) Chemical used in teeth whitening could also affect people who have sensitive teeth after the treatment. This reaction is normally very noticeable when eating food while they too are hot or too cold such as ice cream.

3) The chemicals used (carbamide peroxide and hydrogen peroxide) in the whitening procedures could also be potentialy dangerous if swallowed. Some people will have a reaction of stomach upset, nausea and vomiting.

Some case studies have shown that the use of hydrogen peroxide for teeth whitening has been associated with the development of tongue cancer. While there is no conclusive or large enough sampling to quantify the claims but there is something to be aware about.
