Is there a age for teeth whitening?

Well I'm 12.And I was on google for soft prices on health-care and I came on teeth whitening in the dental categories.By the way the website is pricedoc.com. My friend katie showed me all about it and I was amazed on how small the prices were. The cheapest price for teeth whitening was 250$ around here in New Jersey. Is there age or teeth whitening? my friend katie says no , but my other friend farrah said there is depending on your dentist and age. I don't belive there is age limit , but is there and why? - Thanks :)

You should not have your teeth whitened until you are, at least, 18 years old. Your teeth are still erupting and you will end up with part of your tooth whitened and the part that is not fully in will not be whitened. Also, beware of how many times you whiten your teeth once you become an adult. Whitening eventually removes the pigment from your teeth. The more times you whiten the worse it gets! I have seen, at least, three patients who have whitened their teeth so many times that their front teeth are becoming clear instead of tooth colored. Instead of looking like teeth - they look like opaque windows. Don't do that to your teeth!
