Overly sensitive teeth?

i bought those crest premium whitening strips, and the first 2 days i used as directed, twice a day. the thrid day i used it only once and then my teeth were sensitive the rest of the day. i didnt use them for 2 days, then used one again yesterday morning, and my teeth have been so sensitive since. i know i know, stop using them. i'll just do one every 2 days or so since thats apparently all i can handle, but until then, what can i do to make my teeth not so sensitive. i mean, its even sore to breath thru my nose!

Overly sensitive teeth?
same experience with me. i also bought those whitening agents so that my teeth will lokk whiter coz my teeth are yellowish. but then, my teeth became sensitive! the label says "gentle for sensitive teeth and gums" but then i still experience those sensitivity.





%26gt;whitening agents really cause sensitivity to the teeth because of the ingredients that whitens our teeth it penetrates in our enamel (the hardest portion of the tooth) and it cause sensitivity because our nerves can feel it.





%26gt;use SENSODYNE toothpaste. it is effective for sensitive teeth. my dentist says that.... sensodyne toothpaste for sensitive teeth. now i don't have sensitive teeth. i can smile and eat foods that i want whether it's cold, hot or sweets. trust me.
Reply:Drink through a straw and switch to a toothpaste made for sensitive teeth.


I have bleached my teeth before and suffered through the two weeks, it took about a month for everything to feel better. good luck
Reply:You may have an allergy problem with the chemicals in the whitening strips. That sounds really bad if your nose is affected. You might want to start brushing your teeth with sensodine toothpaste.
Reply:I don't think there is a lot you can do except wait it out. Try taking alleve or ibuprofin. That would probably help a lot.
Reply:You must see your Dentist ASAP to resolve this problem. Please stop the "white strips" until you know it's OK to continue. SW RNP
Reply:u should try using a sensitive toothpaste like sensodyne. it develops a layer on the teeth to protect from sensitivity
Reply:I had the same experience. It is the peroxide in the whitening agent. It is hard on the enamel on your teeth and terrible on your gums.





I used Enamel On toothpaste...or Enamel Care it what it is now by Arm %26amp; Hammer.. . It helped greatly. However, my gums have never been the same - receeded terribly. Be careful and follow the instructions - do not rush the process!
Reply:Your best bet is to stop using the strips %26amp; purchase a toothpaste for sensitive teeth %26amp; see if that helps. If that doesn't help, may I recommend that you see your dentist?





BTW: Yes, you can purchase toothpaste for sensitive teeth at your grocery store, drug store, or probably the best buy would be at Wal*Mart.
Reply:drink by using a straw.....stop using this strips....use sensodyene
