Common Questions & Answers about Tooth Whitening

"Recently I have noticed that one of my front two upper teeth is beginning to wear away - or is chipping. On those two front teeth I have some staines that I have tried to have removed by a laser about 6 years ago, but failed. I'm wondering if those staines have anything to do with my tooth "wearing away" and if the other one might begin to do so, or if it is being caused by something else. I plan on visiting my dentist soon but wondered if you might happen to know if the staines are part of the cause. Thanks."
