During the operation, the teeth will feel sore, and after the operation, dentin hypersensitivity (hot and cold reaction) is likely to occur, and the probability of tooth brittleness is relatively high.

Just use the teeth whitening device every night. It is best to use it before going to bed. The best effect is to sleep right after use.

If you are sensitive, just reduce the amount of gel you use and the duration of use. It’s fine to use it for 15-20 minutes.
