Hi,

I wonder if amyone could give me some advice. I had my teeth bleached for the first time by my orthodontist after Invisalign braces with Illume -1hr. After it was done I had really throbbing extremely sensitive teeth. I went to see my dentist who told me to use toothpaste in the customs made bleaching trays overnight. I did this for two weeks but the trays caused my teeth to move which caused more pain. I then got a shooting pain through my left upper front tooth and this tooth has become more painful. It hurts all the time now and is sensitive to cold and throbs sometimes (I have been drinking through a straw). I also clench and grind my teeth which hasn't helped and am now wearing a nightguard.

To add to my misery I also developed a burning pain in my trigeminal nerve under my scalp and a general ache through my back molars. My GP said it was a form of Reginal Pain Syndrome and should settle in time. I am now worried that I will need root canals especially in my front tooth. Can bleaching cause this much pain? It is now three months since I had it done.
