Hydrogen Peroxide Teeth Whitening

Hydrogen Peroxide is widely used to bleach paper and textiles, and is used as a disinfectant in the medical field and in the household and is also the main ingredient used to whiten your teeth. Normal concentrations are around 3% and up to 10%. In general, the peroxide, the greater the whitening power.
Side effects
Because hydrogen peroxide is a chemical highly reactive two effects most common side are the mouth and gums and irritation of the increased tooth sensitivity to temperature changes, but both effects are temporary. Hydrogen peroxide works so well because it can easily pass through the enamel of teeth and begin to interact with the dentin and pulp of your tooth. Studies have shown that this does not harm or effect any part of the enamel of your teeth and is considered safe by the ADA.
Carbamide peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide should not be confused because they are very different from each other. Hydrogen is a chemical to react much faster and has a short lifespan. When mixed with oxygen and saliva, hydrogen peroxide breaks down very quickly led to a short tooth whitening sessions. Carbamide peroxide was invented to slow down the decomposition process so that the peroxide last longer and provide more of the effects of tooth whitening, and to have a longer lifespan.
What it does not
Hydrogen peroxide can not change the color of fillings, porcelain teeth, ceramic teeth, gold teeth or other restorative materials because hydrogen can not penetrate the surface layers of these materials . However, it can do more porous dental work, such as cement and dental amalgam, but the effect can be negative, making them more flexible or more soluble.
