I had my teeth professionally Laser whitened a week ago today. It really hurt but I was told that the side effects should subside within 24-48hrs. However a week later my teeth and gums and still very sensitive and quite sore. Is this normal and will it get any better?

Need quick remedy for sensitive teeth from whitening?

Layla asked:


I used one of the Crest White Strips last night (part of that Radiance system that has three strips to be used once a week for 3 weeks and a toothpaste to help protect enamel to be used daily). Anyway, it was my second week and I’ve never had a problem with sensitivity before- this morning when I woke up I felt fine, but now that I’ve been at work it’s getting worse and worse. Does anyone know of something that I can do (at work) that will at least ease the pain on the tips of the front 4 teeth?

!!!10 points for most useful answer!!!

Thank you!

To whiten teeth or not to whiten?

somebody asked:


The MAIN point of your teeth is to break down your food for easier digestion afterwards.

If one performs teeth whitening, does it have a negative effect in the long run(sensitivity, loss of teeth etc) in which case, is it better to live with yellow teeth to ensure the best possible digestion rather then whiten them.

Crest Whitening Strips?

Miriah <3 asked:


I have heard both good and bad things about Crest whitening strips and i wanted to know the truth before buying them.

I have heard that they cause your teeth to be sensitive and that you will need to use a sensitivity toothpaste. How long (if this is even true) does the sensitivity last and is it nessecary to purchase a special toothpaste afterwards?

Also, how long do the effects last? Would I be better off paying the extra money to have them whitened proffesionally? My teeth are not extremely yellow or brown but they are a little dull looking and i would like them to be whiter.
