Should I be concerned by Hydrogen Peroxide used in whitening systems?

Thursday, August 18th, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr

I had my teeth whitened at my dentist and she used the reputible company Voco system on me. I was concerned because i wasnt aware that Hydrogen Peroxide was used which is an acid…my question is why do dentists use an acid to whiten teeth? Do your teeth reminilize? I thought enamel didnt heal and i found out that the PH used was 4 and this was in house for 20 mins is this bad? Im worried? Have i got a right to be?

Would appreciate your best advise thankyou for your time,

A.
