Bleaching????

hi im thinking of starting to bleach my teeth, but theres one thing, is there any age that you should or shouldnt be bleaching your teeth. im 13

Bleaching????
Bleaching is not recommended in children under the age of 16. This is because the pulp chamber, or nerve of the tooth, is enlarged until this age. Teeth whitening under this condition could irritate the pulp or cause it to become sensitive. Teeth whitening is also not recommended in pregnant or lactating women
Reply:You are a little young yet to bleach your teeth. Try whitening toothpastes first. In a couple of years maybe your teeth will be mature enough and when that time comes, Crest whitestrips would probably be best for you. They are cheaper than the tray-whitening in your dentist's office, and they don't cause as much sensitivity.
