My mother in law works at a dentistry and suggested I use Zoom whitening kits at home. I have Invisalign retainers and she said I could use them. I must have used a little too much, despite being careful, because the pain and damage my gums now have is almost unbearable. What should I do now?

Answer: Zoom burn It does appear you over applied the whitening gel. i suggest putting some vitamin E oil on it. Will be soothing and will make it heal faster. Invisalign retainers are not the best option to use as whitening trays. They fit too closely to the teeth and so all of the gel oozes out. You need a more flexible tray to be more ideal for whitening.

Answer: Zoom Whitening Hello, The bleaching of the gums is usually temporary and will return to normal pigmentation in a day or two following Zoom teeth whitening procedure. If you have sensitivity you can ask your dentist for fluoride gel prescription to inject inside your trays to help with sensitivity. Hope this helps, Dr. Mazaheri
