Yes, it definitely helps with sensitivity!!you can use it after brushing with your regular toothpaste.

The whitening gel makes your teeth sensitive so the blue gel helps take that sensitivity away. If you have sensitive whey not just use sensodyne toothpaste. It works for me

I'm not a dentist but I'd say it depends upon the type of sensitivity you are experiencing. If the sensitivity is at the tips, then this will probably help. If it's near the gum line, then you might want to try the new Crest Sensi-Stop strips. I'd suggest discussing this with your dentist.

If you have sensitive teeth, you might start off keeping your bleaching tray in only for 2-3 hours the first time and increase if you can tolerate it. That's what I did. It takes a little longer to get your teeth whiter that way but you won't feel the discomfort.

I've gotten different whiteners from dentists in the past. This is comparable. I was fine on the ones I had gotten from my dentists in the past. But this was extremely strong. I wore them about 8 hours while sleeping. My upper teeth were a little sensitive for a day or two but my bottom teeth were EXTREMELY sensitive for close to a week. So, I only use this on my upper teeth and only for an or two while I'm awake.

It's really up to your teeth sensitivity, I start with 30 min. and use a very small amount of gel. I have very sensitive teeth so I do every other day. My husband however does one hour every day for five days. I also use sensodyne toothpaste when whitening.

This toothpaste works by itself. Or it can be used after professional whitening. No toothpaste will significantly whiten your teeth but this toothpaste is the best I've ever used, it cleans and brightens your smile nicely.

No...I have used this product for a couple of years (almost daily) and haven't noticed any difference with my teeth!

The instructions don't say anything about that. Because the whitening (depending on the strength) is rough on tooth enamel, it does say you should brush your teeth after whitening. There is a toothpaste - Pronamel that may help). I Hope this helps.

I leave mine on for at least one hour. You can leave it on longer if you like, but some people complain of it causing sensitivity (ie; teeth "tender" to cold liquids etc. I have a friend who leaves it on overnight.) I've never had any problems with cold sensitivity myself and I've left it on for as long as 3 hrs. before. I don't think it'll make your teeth any whiter after an hour, or so......it's done its job and the potency has fizzled out. One thing I have noticed is DON'T eat anything with strong color after you've used this product. Like carrots or wine....I did my usual treatment, brushed my teeth then ate some carrots....then went to put my makeup on and freaked as my teeth were very orange! It came off pretty quick with another brushing...still...freaky.

I usually have throbbing painful sensitivity when using these strips but I found that if I use Sensodyne toothpaste for a week prior to starting these and continue using it twice a day on whitening treatment days the sensitivity is greatly diminished for me. Hope this info helps.

I am honestly not 100% if it will make it more noticeable. I believe it would evenly whiten just like if your tooth didn't have a crack. I have a small chip on one tooth and it whitened evenly so it's not noticeable. I don't know if you've used any whitening products before but it may make your cracked tooth temporarily more sensitive. (Depending on how the crack is)

I am not sure what you mean by that question sorry. Using once does make a difference and i wouldn't recommend leaving them longer than 30 minutes. They are a 2 week supply but i did not use them regularly. I did more like every other day. The teeth do become sensitive and i had a concern with the peroxide in it.

I do not know if fluoride is an ingredient. But I would advise you to go with the next level of strength at a minimum. I found that the 4 tubes at the 10% level was not strong enough to do the job of whitening my teeth. I saw no change so I went to the next stronger % and that helped but think I should have gone to an even higher % to really do a good job. Or maybe I would have had better results with another 4 tubes. 10% might be ok to maintain your teeth whiteness once you have them white. I would go as strong of a product as I could without making my teeth to sensitive and uncomfortable. I do not know if fluoride is an ingredient.

Power Swabs will not leave your teeth feeling sensitive because its patented formula contains a coconut-derived solution. This actually re-hydrates the enamel instead of breaking it down like other products that contain mostly bleach.

It depends on how white you want your teeth and how much coffee, tea, wine, and other staining food and drink you consume. For the first time you use a whitener, I would recommend doing a full course of 10-14 treatments over 2 to 4 weeks depending on how well your teeth handle the sensitivity (which is temporary and can be managed by taking days off in between treatments if you are sensitive). That initial treatment course will dramatically whiten stained teeth (getting a cleaning at a dentist's office prior to this is a good idea too). Afterwards, you will have to touch up every 6-12 months depending on your eating and drinking habits. You can also use once a week to once a month as maintenance.

It's meant to keep tartar off the teeth over time. I don't think it's meant as a teeth whitening product. Sorry.

I have sensitive teeth so I have to be careful with this stuff. I've never left it on for longer than 30 minutes. Also, I do it every other day rather than every day because this concentration is pretty high.

It really whitens your teeth. I have a custom tray I had made at my detist. I did it for 2 hours 7-10 days initially. Now after my 6 month cleaning I use it 2-4 days for upkeep. Using longer than 2 hours really makes teeth sensitive. This quantity last me over a year. I keep it in the refrigerator.
