Sensitivity: Sensitivity or ache after whitening is typically due to exposed root surges on teeth. Please see your dentist to evaluate the possibility of gum recession, cavities, or periodontal disease.

Try hydrogen peroxid: While any whitening gel can cause sensitivity and aching of the teeth, hydrogen peroxide requires less wear duration per application than carbamide peroxide. Typically h.P. Is one hour, while c.P. Is several hours. We caution our patients to back off and use less frequently when this occurs. Ask your dental professional for daywhite hp gel.
