What should you check before using a whitening kit?
Check the ingredient list, follow the stated exposure time, stop for significant pain or gum contact, and have untreated decay, cracks, recession, or restorations assessed first.
When can whitening symptoms require dental care?
Seek care for chemical burns, persistent sensitivity, severe pain, or a dark single tooth.
What should you ask about a whitening-related finding?
Ask what is causing the finding, which examination or tests are needed, and which treatment addresses the cause.
