Crest whitestrips making my gums sore, normal?!

Question: Hi, I'm a dentist.

The carbamide peroxide gel is an irritant to the gingiva (your gums), so YES, it's normal. If your gums are overly sensitive to the gel, you may have to decrease the amount of time you wear the strips.

Hope that helped.
