ARMIJOS-MORETA, Jaime Fernando; GAVILANES-VILLAMARIN, Silvia Marisol; CLEONARES-BORBOR, Aurelia María e VERA-VELOZ, Amalia Fernanda. Effect of dental desensitizers on odontalgia after tooth whitening: a review of the literature. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2023, vol.27, suppl.2 Epub 01-Dez-2023. ISSN 1561-3194.
ABSTRACT Professional tooth whitening can cause sensitivity as a side effect due to the products and the process used. The objective of this research is to characterize the sensitivity secondary to bleaching and the effect of desensitizers to counteract it. A search for information was carried out in the SciELO, PubMed/MedLine and Scopus databases of the literature published between 2012-2021. The aggression suffered by tooth enamel and the exposure of dentin during tooth whitening seems to be the main cause of pain. However, this effect is temporary and diminishes over time. The use of desensitizers prior to treatment is recommended to reduce the likelihood of tooth sensitivity.
