Does Teeth Whitening Work if You have some enamel erosion?

I drank soda way too much in my youth and some of my enamel has been dissolved. If i get my teeth whitened, will it still work, or is the damage irreversible?

Whitening might "work," but you could end up with intolerable sensitivity that would make eating and brushing very difficult. Consult a dentist about your options first.
