2. If you have sensitive teeth or receding gums: if you have any of these problems it may still be possible by using less gel and less whitening time, or you may find sensitive whitening gel.
3. What guarantee does the supplier give, some just give 7 – 14 days guarantee and the item has not to be opened, you may find a very good supplier who gives a 30 day if you are not happy with your results guarantee.
