You will need to seek approval from your dentist before undergoing any teeth whitening treatment and have your teeth assessed as being dentally fit and suitable for a tooth whitening treatment. This is very important as while teeth may be stained on the surface, tooth discolouration may also be caused by more significant problems such as decay.
