Am i safe to use these while waiting for my perm. crowns. others are a2,a3 perm's are b1. want to make match as best possible sooner

whiting can be done with no damage to your temps.  However, if your dentist already ordered the final crowns, It would be great to ask him or her.  It is usually better to bleach before the fabrication of the new crowns so the dentist can match the crowns.

Can whiten your teeth without causing any damage to your temporary crowns. It is always a little riskier try to match crowns to existing teeth as they are getting whitened, but it is possible with enough patience. Good luckThomas Dey, BDS, MSc

Hi:I suggest to consult your dentist prior to the whitening.  The office should definitely be aware of any changes in the color of your teeth prior to fabricating the final restoration.Best,Dr. Maddahi

You can whiten your teeth without causing any damage to your temps. It would be best to match the shade of the permanent crowns to your tooth shade after whitening.
