Asked By:simple12367 in Netherlands, NL

One of my front teeth broke when i was young. Now my dentist has recommended to get a crown, I want to however i would like to whiten my teeth first. I will probably get a at home whitening kit through my dentist. And after 2 weeks or so i want to get the crown. However this means that i will have to whiten my teeth for the rest of my life, so that my teeth remain the same color as my crown. Wil this be damaging to the health of my teeth, if done over a long period of time?
