Hello there... Bleaching is just a temporary solution but it should not be done frequently as we use acids like hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide which will erode your tooth enamel on prolonged usage ....
U can opt for ceramic veneers if u want a permanent treatment for your yellow teeth...
Take care ..!!!

Hi..
Plz do not go for bleaching till your dentist advises you. It is a temporary solution and makes enamel weaker when done frequently. Carbamide peroxide and other peroxides bleach enamel layer leading to porous and weak.

If your teeth is yellow and you ate 15 years old you will experience severe sensitivity. Because you will have a tbin enamel. So if you are so much worried you can cover your teeth by veneering. Its a procedure to mask your yellow teeth
