Can whitening gel make your mouth burn ? i was using some and now my mouth burns

Whitening products: Whitening products can irritate gums and soft tissues of the mouth. It's temporary and will go away on its own without treatment. I suggest everybody consult with their own dentist to discuss whitening techniques which is tailored to their particular situation and needs and not use OTC products.
