Teeth whitening, also known as tooth bleaching, is a dental procedure that lightens the color of your teeth. It can be done in a dentist's office or at home with a kit provided by your dentist.
There are a number of reasons why you might want to whiten your teeth. Some people do it to improve their smile, while others do it to correct discoloration caused by smoking, drinking coffee or tea, or taking certain medications. Teeth whitening can also be used to lighten the color of teeth that have been stained by injury or trauma.
