Wondering about teeth whitening with crowns, caps, veneers, or fillings? Here’s the breakdown:
Whitening treatments don’t affect the color of dental materials like crowns, caps, veneers, or fillings. These are designed to maintain the same shade they were when first placed.
While whitening won’t lighten these materials, it can:
-Clean and polish them, restoring their shine.
-Keep your smile looking fresh and vibrant.
Whitening your natural teeth can also help them blend better with your dental work.
Over time, natural teeth can darken or stain, but whitening can brighten them to their fullest potential, helping them match your crowns and fillings more closely.
So to answer the question we get frequently, YES you can still do a whitening treatment, but keep in mind anything that isn’t your natural teeth will brighten vs whiten!
