Yes it is. The degree of whitening desirable probably depends on a persons complexion. Often patients with pale skin color look great with super white teeth, but when they have too much red pigment in their skin, very white teeth can look strange and unnatural.
Before whitening begins, I often hold a shade guide up to my patients skin and see what shades look good. For some a B-1 shade is too white. Some patients look better with a slightly darker shade such as a A-1 or A-2 or even a D-2 shade.
When patients do bleach their teeth , the dentist does not have complete control of the degree of whitening, but it is advisable to check what shades look good against their skin, prior to beginning the whitening.
