Dental office reported that patient completed take home whitening and started her whitening maintenance (with hema desensitizer) in october.When the patient whitened the one night in november (not sure of the exact date) she woke up the next morning with puffy/swollen lips.Requested dental assistant to inform the patient to permanently discontinue use of the kör desensitizer (the patient had already done so, and she hasn't whitened since the possible reaction).The patient went to see her dentist and general practitioner, who prescribed her benadryl and a steroid to help with inflammation and other symptoms.
