The act of teeth whitening is a cosmetic dentistry procedure that removes stains, plaque, and surface irregularities.


There are many home remedies for teeth whitening that are considered safer than professional treatments. These include baking soda paste, lemon juice, hydrogen peroxide, and whitening toothpaste.

How long does teeth sensitivity last after whitening?


Teeth sensitivity will last for as long as you keep using the whitening agent but it is unlikely that you will experience it as long as a month or two following your treatment.


The duration of teeth sensitivity after teeth whitening will be determined by how well you follow the instructions given to you by your dentist. If you were proactive about the instructions and the materials, then it is possible to keep teeth sensitivity away for a couple of weeks. But if you feel discomfort from tooth sensitivity, then it may be best to follow up with your dentist.
