Quick answer
Use Blue Balm Moisture Boost to hydrate your gums and reduce dryness or irritation that can occur during teeth whitening. Apply a small amount to affected areas after your whitening session.

Why gums get dry during whitening
Whitening gels often contain peroxide-based formulas that can temporarily dehydrate soft tissues, including your gums. This can lead to a dry, tight feeling or mild sensitivity. The Blue Balm Moisture Boost is designed to counter this by delivering hydration directly to the gum line.

Diagnosis: Is it dry gums or something else?
- Symptom: Your gums feel sticky, tight, or mildly sore after using a whitening product. You may also notice a white film or slight redness.
- Likely cause: Dehydration from the whitening agent or prolonged contact with the gum tissue. This is common when using high-concentration gels or leaving strips on longer than recommended.
- Corrective action: Rinse your mouth with water, then apply a pea-sized amount of Blue Balm Moisture Boost directly to the affected gum area. Gently massage for 30 seconds. Use up to 3 times daily as needed. Stop use if irritation persists beyond 48 hours.
- When to stop or choose another option: If you experience swelling, bleeding, or sharp pain, discontinue whitening and consult a dentist. The Blue Balm is for mild dryness—not for treating gum disease or serious inflammation.
