Question: I accidently fell asleep with my whitening trays in!! HELP?

I got whitening trays from my dentist a couple weeks ago and have been using it for the directed 30 minutes each night. I am sick and need more rest than usual so I fell asleep with them in!
Please help cause my teeth are pretty sensitive and have white spots on them!

Answers:

ITS OK! I work at a dental office, a majority of our pt,'s sleep with themin anyways. Ours you are suppose to wear for an hour, most sleep with them in because you get the full use of the whitening gel, and the trays are kind of like a nightguard if you are a mild clencher or grinder. Key word MILD. If you have any sensativity brush with sensodyn and dont leave them in for more than 30 mins. next time. Most pt.'s are fine leaving them in longer . If you have existing sensative teeth or gums I wouldnt recommend leaving the trays in longer than what is recommended.

WELL, YOU MUST CALL YOUR DENTIST ABOUT THE WHITE SPOTS AND THE SENSITIVITY WILL IMPROVE IN TIME. USE SENSODYNE TOOTHPASTE FOR THIS

Why are you asking us? Go to the dentist.

How would you like me to help you with this?
