Can tooth whitening toothpaste cause sensitivity in teeth?

Brooke22365 asked:


I started having trouble back in October. I went to the dentist, and he couldn’t find anything wrong with my teeth. He said wait a little bit and see if it gets better. I just realized that my probelm started after I started using Colgate toothpaste with tartar protection and whitening. I have been using Sensodyne since the problem started and have not been using the Colgate, and while things are a bit better, I still have pain.
Will it get better if I stop using it?
