Zoom Teeth Whitening Blisters?
I_M_N_Pain asked:
I went in 4 days ago to get the Zoom Tooth Whitening System. I was in very much discomfort during the hour session and paid because I was so happy to get out of there, my dilema is that I told the receptionist when I left that my lips were very swollen. I went home and put ice on the swelling. The desntist told me to expect tooth sensitivity. He never mentioned anything about burns and blisters and serious possibilities to infection. I just wanted a quick fix. By the evening of the first day, my lip had swollen 3 times it’s size. It was so painful, I couldn’t even lift the top lip to look inside.
I called the dentist and he told me to just put Vitamin E on the gums and that maybe the gel got on my lips. By that night, I was in so much pain. I have been gargling with warm salt water 4x a day since then for 4 days now and applying Vitamin E to both the lips and gums. The blisters and skin fold has still not healed!

Four days is too long to be this uncomfortable. Please go back to the dentist RIGHT NOW.
Too often, patients come in after the symptoms are gone and tell us about how bad it was. Let him see it in person and give him a chance to help you.

Maybe allergic reaction to chemicals or latex besides burns, See DDS or MD.
