Short answer - yes.

Is hydrogen peroxide good for teeth?
My belief is that it’s neither good or bad, it can cause sensitivity in some patients and no troubles in others. Best is to be accurate in brushing and flossing and use Hydrogen Peroxide as desired to aid in your home care. READ MORE

It really depends on whether you have manageable habits to support the condition (smoking, not brushing the top and sides of the tongue) -or- systemic conditions (dry mouth, vitamin deficiency, medication use or auto immune condition) - you should see your Dr to check. READ MORE
How long do I have to wait to eat after a dental filling?
First you’ll want to wait or be very cautious while the numbness lasts, secondly the type of filling is important. Silver fillings take longer to set up (lite diet for 24 hrs.). White fillings (Composite resin) set up immediately. READ MORE
