The dentist keeps scheduling me appointments- a couple weeks ago i had a root canal, i have a couple teeth with small cavities that need to be filled still. The first time i had a cleaning done. Now he keeps making appointments 2 weeks apart and every other week i get something else done, i want my teeth whiteneneed! Will he do them if i ask for it even though some work still needs to be done?

No. Before you have any bleaching done, it is best to have all your teeth healthy and sound. The problem being, if you have tiny cavities, or any cavities in your front teeth, the hydrogen peroxide solution can badly damage your teeth. Usually I recommend cleaning before teeth whitening because it removes all the stains and plaque, giving a clean tooth surface to whiten. You will get better results. The Dentist is a doctor and he will have to treat your infected teeth, decayed teeth before doing any cosmetic procedure. It would be highly unethical if he just did the bleaching without cleaning your teeth (even if you really needed it) or restoring your cavities. If you find a Dentist who just wants easy money, then he will do the bleaching immediately without even examining the condition of your teeth and gums. Will a plastic surgeon place breast implants on a woman just because she asked, even if he found a huge lump in one of her breasts? No.
