How to relieve tooth pain from whitening strips?

Please don't use those chemical strips if they are hurting your mouth. Just apply a little bit of warm mustard oil with a pinch of turmeric on your gums, it is very soothing. Take care of your health and let your teeth rest.

Our bodies tell us when something is not agreeing with them, so please listen to your teeth. Stay positive, drink warm herbal tea, and avoid these harsh treatments for a while. Take good care of your precious health.

I had to stop using strips mid-way because the sensitivity was affecting my meetings. If you are busy, just switch to a desensitizing toothpaste and cut down the wear-time of the strips to half. If it still hurts, it's not worth the hassle, just drop it.

Whitening strips contain peroxide which can easily seep into the pores of your teeth and irritate the pulp. Stop the strips for at least 48 hours and use a soft toothbrush. You can also apply a desensitizing gel if you have one handy.

Using over-the-counter strips can sometimes expose underlying cavities or gum recession, which causes severe pain. It is highly recommended to stop using them immediately and visit a dentist to make sure no permanent damage is being done.
