I have bleached my teeth while breast feeding with no ill effects upon my
baby.  I have also had the "one sitting" bleaching while breast feeding.
The newer bleaching materials are very thick and they stay in the tray and
on the teeth much better then the first  bleaching products that came out
years ago.  I'm afraid I disagree with the dental person who posted.  I
find it hard to believe that carbamide peroxide, the tiny bit that you
might ingest, would alter the breast milk. However, I do not know that for
a fact.  My husband is a dentist so needless to say, we both value white
teeth.  I will continue to bleach my teeth periodically while breast
feeding.
