Consult dentists: You may have periodontal disease that has exposed the roots of teeth that are more sensitive than the crown. Please consult your dentist for diagnosis and treatment asap to prevent tooth loss.

See a dentist: Sensitivity or achiness after using whitening products is not uncommon. However, you should definitely seek professional opinion from your dentist. You could possibly have a more serious tooth problem.
