Compared to traditional tray bleaching, laser whitening is:
Quicker
More convenient
More expensive
More likely to cause severe (if transient) dentinal hypersensitivity.

By "severe dentinal hypersensitivity" do you mean Pain?
If it would be MORE painful than the gel I used at night, I want no
part of it. It was like having a toothache in most of my mouth, for
days!

Effectiveness seems to be about the same as bleach whitening, from what
I've seen and heard.
