I have had dental filler put on my gum line. Maybe called luting? The dentist did the work and shined a light to set. Anyway, can I use this product

First you need to purchase blank molds that fit over your teeth. The the product seems mild enough to be used every couple of weeks. It really works well and the price is right. Follow the instruction carefully. Making the mold to fit your bite is critical. I boil water in the microwave in a container large enough to hold the molds. Do one at a time. Be careful because the mold will be hot. Put it in your mouth and suck to pull the mold against your teeth. Keep it there until it cools and repeat the procedure with the other mold. Coat the inside of the mold with the product and follow the instructions on the length of time you expose your teeth to the whitener. Usually about 10 minutes. I also use a special light that wraps around my neck and shines on my teeth. You may want to consider getting one of those lights. Hope this was helpful.

Hi :) I would hightly recommend that you don't use this product. I have healthy gums and teeth, and this gel literally burned like crazy! I had to remove it - and I have a super tolerance to pain! If I were you, I would stick to the Crest strips :)

No, do not brush it on....from the syringe, press out a very, very small dot on the end of your index finger and massage into sore areas of gum and/or teeth. It works instantly to relieve discomfort. Start with less than you think you need untill you get the hang of it. It is great stuff and you'll be glad you have it. It slips around on your finger and gum, but persist using a very small amount at a time, so you don't waste it. I love it!

Absolutely not. The light that comes in the package fits over the mouth guard and can be used anytime.

Yes....it sticks pretty good to your teeth, however, I have several crowns, as does my husband and neither of us had any trouble. If it is brand new maybe you should Give it a while to set and then do it. I don't think the substance sticks to the teeth per say. This is my opinion but I think it is hard to remove b/c the substance fits your teeth and gum line tightly. Hope this helps.

You could use it before or after scraping the touge. Of course you'll get better results (non-white tounge) if you scrape before. It is a wonderful product and I will never be without. Best oral health product I have ever spent money on, and I've tried my share of products. Trust me on this one!

I cannot tell you as I use it in my invialign retainer at night as prescribed by my dentist.

I don't believe so. Your mouth is closed on the mouth tray, so light only penetrates the front where you put the gel.

Every time you put the whitening trays in...I used once a week. You have to put the gel in the trays...put those in your mouth...and then put the light in your mouth over top of the trays...a bit awkward to do.

No, when the batteries went flat re whitening gel still works, but the light makes the formula work REALLY fast. Careful not to get it on your gums coz it can burn, especially if you have sensitive gums

My dentist said it will not affect the fake tooth (no whitening), so he advised I did not do professional whitening since the "fake" tooth color would stay darker than surrounding teeth.

Yes! I've never used a night guard, but your explanation is how it works. It comes as a "strip". The hot water causes it to bend and you hold it in your mouth. There is a pink "goo" you put on the back of the mold, that "sticks" to your teeth to create the exact mold of your teeth. You pop that in and hold and it all in your mouth for a few minutes. It conforms like you said to create the match. They all use hot water to set.

Yeah, I would have Amazon check it out. I bought this yesterday at Kmart and used it this morning, does anyone know if you can use teh light with other whitening gels (like 5 minute white, etc)

If the tooth you are talking about is a front tooth it might not match up after you use the whitener. I have a small "white " filling between my front teeth and you can see a little difference in the color. But in my case it is not a concern, if however it were an entire front tooth, I would be careful and maybe use a 15 or 22% gel.

Sure! Brush teeth do not floss. Apply gel to trays spread with brush thinly front and back. Try not to use too much it can irritate your gums. Leave trays in. Put led light on place it between your teeth and leave on and in mouth. 1-2 hours. Or no light 2 hours. Rinse mouth after. Then eat and drink as usual.On light, open battery casing pull tab to activate batteries. Then turn light on!

Vaseline works. You need a thick layer to protect soft gum tissue from ulcers that light might give you

Fisrt you should visit your dentist for an advice, and then you should use the Opalescene whitening gel.
