    I know there are other posts on this but i'm wondering if anyone has had any good/bad experiences with laser tooth whitening.
    there's a deal on living social at the moment for €89 -- seems very reasonable.
    is it worth doing?
    and does it make your teeth very sensitive?

    Thanks so much
    :)

    I have a few friends that have Gotten it done and I noticed no significant difference in their teeth tbh
    my aunt actually had major issues with sensitivity afterwards
    Best whitening to go for is custom made trays and whitening kit from professional dentist, will cost more but you will get better and more long lasting results!!

    I would advise you speak to your dentist before getting any teeth whitening procedures done as they can if incorrectly done cause damage to your teeth. I would also advise you stay away from these deals as the work is usually not carried out by a qualified dentist. Yes it will cost you more to get trays made by your dentist but it will be safer and last longer.

    I completely agree with the previous 2 posts. I got mine done via my dentist (using trays & gel). It was more expensive but it gives me control over when I use it which helps me avoid that fake-looking over whitened look (that episode of Friends where Ross got his teeth whitened will stay with me forever! 😉)
    My dentist did tell me about the sensitivity the treatment caused. Her advice was to use Sensodyne toothpaste for at least a few days prior to carrying out the treatment.

    Agreed. Stay away from those deals. Only let a qualified dentist do any sort of treatment on your teeth full stop!
