Can I whiten my teeth while pregnant?
We recommend avoiding teeth whitening during pregnancy and breastfeeding as a precaution. While there is no definitive evidence of harm, the effects of whitening agents during pregnancy have not been thoroughly studied. We suggest waiting until after you finish breastfeeding to pursue whitening treatments.
