Whitening

• It is not uncommon for your teeth to feel sensitive after whitening.
• To avoid sensitivity, do not wear your whitening trays overnight to avoid overexposure of the whitening gel on the gums.
• Drinking particularly hot or cold beverages may trigger the sensitivity so it is best to avoid these if your teeth are already sensitive.
• Using Sensodyne toothpaste or a high fluoride toothpaste may help alleviate some sensitivity; however any sensitivity should subside after a day or two.
•  Also, after removing your whitening trays, avoid staining food or liquids (coffee, tea, wine) for at least one half hour.
