MI Paste is fantastic

Lance Timmerman, DMD answers: Can I buy the toothpaste that will reduce sensitivity prior to Zoom treatment over the counter?

I am extremely nervous now about the Zoom procedure. I never even considered pain involved until I read all these reviews. If there is a toothpaste that will help with the sensitivity prior to getting in the dentist chair, then I would like to purchase it. Thank you for your help!

MI Paste is a product that is dispensed in a dental office, but it is very effective.  Products such as Gel-Kam or prevident used to be by prescription only but are now OTC are highly fluoridated and can help as well.

Sometimes placing highly fluoridated gel in the whitening trays for 30 minutes prior to using the bleaching gel can make the teeth much more comfortable.

Helpful?
