Dear Practo user ! I wouldn’t recommend you using baking soda to teeth whitening as it is highly abrasive it will wear the enamel layer of tooth gradually . This may leads to more discolouration, sensitivity like symptoms . consider booking an online consultation for personalized advice.
Next Steps
Visit dentist and have regular check up !
