No generally it is not a painful procedure. Sometimes some patients experience a pain because of tooth sensitivity. But it happens in very rare cases.

If your professional Dentist is doing something wrong then you may experience a painful procedure.

But professional teeth whitenings are painless and comfortable treatment.

Yes,it is !!! But I would suggest to ask your doctor to give you a good toothpaste before taking the treatment.

If done properly, it should not be a painful treatment. The use of a toothpaste for sensitive teeth is recommended from 2 to 3 weeks before starting the whitening treatment because the substance used for whitening (carbamide peroxide) can temporarily make your teeth more sensitive than normal. Anyway, this substance can be used in different concentrations during the whitening treatment depending on the sensitiveness and the reaction that the patient presents. Generally, results are excellent in 2 to 3 weeks period.
