If you are looking to avoid tooth sensitivity after whitening, have we got something for you. The CustMbite Teeth Whitening Kit is one of the only teeth whitening kits on the market that is specially designed for people with sensitive teeth. Many alternatives use harsh chemicals and subpar trays, leading to a less-than-pleasant, painful experience.

The number-one thing that causes tooth sensitivity after whitening is whitening solutions that are too aggressive, used for too long, or used too frequently. The most common active ingredient in most teeth whitening solutions is hydrogen peroxide, an effective yet harsh ingredient.
Hydrogen peroxide penetrates the top layer of your tooth enamel through minuscule cracks to break up stains underneath the enamel. The problem is that too much hydrogen peroxide (or any at all) can cause tooth sensitivity, from mild to severe. Most patients generally recover from teeth sensitivity after whitening, but the duration of the process and recovery can be truly excruciating.
This is all to say that it's best to dodge tooth sensitivity after whitening before you even begin. But if most kits contain solutions with hydrogen peroxide, what's the real solution?
There are two must-have items in every whitening kit: great trays and effective, gentle solutions. What makes one type of try or solution better than another? Let's look at these two essential components:
- Whitening Trays. Many over-the-counter whitening kits don't offer high-quality trays. Bulky, clunky, one-size-fits-all trays can leak whitening solution all over your mouth, making your gums, tongue, and inner cheeks sensitive along with your teeth — the exact opposite effect that you're hoping to have.
The best way to reduce tooth sensitivity after whitening is to use trays that are completely customizable, like CustMbite's. To increase comfort and wearability, look for thin, flexible trays that can be personalized precisely to your teeth. Ideally, each tray would be remoldable as well to accommodate any changes in your smile.
- Whitening Solution. As reviewed above, the strength and formulation of your chosen teeth whitening solution matters too. Selecting a product with carbamide peroxide instead of hydrogen peroxide provides a gentler experience to your teeth, and using a lower-strength formula reduces the likelihood of teeth sensitivity after whitening even further.
Both carbamide peroxide and hydrogen peroxide work exactly the same, but the difference between the two comes down to immediacy. Hydrogen peroxide gets into stains fast, giving you more instant results. However, the solution tends to irritate teeth and gums precisely because of its instantaneous action. The solution penetrates deeper into the tooth, getting closer to the sensitive nerves inside your tooth. This is what causes teeth sensitivity after whitening.
While you might be thinking “Fast results? Why not use hydrogen peroxide?”, don't be fooled! With a little extra patience, carbamide peroxide does the exact same thing. The best kits include multiple options for those with differing levels of tooth sensitivity — both a stronger gel to a gentler foam. The foam should be gentle enough to be used multiple times a day or even overnight. CustMbite's Whitening Foam has 8% carbamide peroxide, so it's perfect for those looking for teeth whitening for sensitive teeth.
