    Also, My business has nothing to do with this video. It does not help me promote at all because I am in a limited area and have other ways of promoting teeth whitening which I do through cross advertising with prominent spas in the area.

    I am sorry to say that in this particular case, the only thing more impressive than your incorrect video is your ignorance.

    have a nice day :)

    Please also notice that I never made an attack against you. I am just HIGHLY surprised that a practicing dentist would offer information like, “whitening gel dissolves tooth structure and can cause the need for root canals.”

    I apologize. Let …
    I apologize. Let me be more clear. If Dr. Chen is a dentist and he does implants, that is great. However, the information in the video is not accurate. It simply is not! Dental implants do not have anything to do with teeth whitening. It is a dental surgery involving bone osseointegration and NOT dissolving enamel or whitening teeth.

    The reason for the comment above is to correct the information in the video. This comment was made after it was confirmed with:

    sorry I choose to believe a real dentist rather then a 22 year old kid standing in front of a fishtank in scrubs promoting his own ‘package’ of gel you can buy, oh how I laughed.

    LOL ‘maximdentistry’

    The information in …
    The information in this video is not accurate and it is obvious this person is not a dentist. Sound tooth structure is NOT damaged. The organic material in between enamel tubes is dissolved and replaced with non colored organic matter (after 2 weeks of whitening teeth are as they were. Also, no cases of root canals being needed due to whitening have EVER been documented. The real reason exposed roots shouldn’t be whitened is that you cannot whiten dentin/cementum.
