Whitening tooth paste had left my teeth gray have I lost my enamel

Q. I have recently used whitening toothpaste and my teeth have a line across and look grey in colour have i lost my enamel and what can i do to replace it.

 
A. It is unlikely that you have lost the enamel of your teeth in such a short time. The likely hood is that one half of your tooth has whitened more than another. My advice would be to see your local dentist and have them assessed. Professional bleaching may well whiten your teeth further and even out this gradation of colour.
