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!

Answer: Reduce Sensitity with MI Paste Plus Yes. There is a product called MI Paste Plus, which you can buy at most dental offices. MI Paste Plus consists of Calcium Phosphate and Fluoride. Using this paste prior and after treatment helps control sensitivity and provides better results for the whitening. Start using it at least a week before doing Zoom Whitening. Good luck.

Answer: Yes, you can The active ingredient you're looking for is called Potassium nitrate (and fluoride). Potassium nitrate works by actually clogging the "pores" (technically called 'tubules') in your tooth, if you will. This can aid in the sensitivity reduction experienced in whitening. It takes about 2 weeks to fully 'clog' the pores in the tooth though.
