**be sure to have a sensitive toothpaste on hand ** i have a tip that a dental assistant friend told me. take a good quality paper towel and cut out a piece and fold it the long way to make strips of "cotton" to stuff under your upper lip to soak up saliva as your whitening your teeth. the less saliva, the less watered down the peroxide gets, therefore maximizing its bleaching power. ok, about these strips....A+....I noticed a difference after one or two sessions. I'm on my third day. the 1st day I did two sessions in a row and one the next day, one today. my teeth are a little sensitive but not too bad. i don't think I could do 10 days in a row. i also took an aleve before hand simply as a way to put the kabosh on any serious discomfort. very happy with results. and yes, the lil white spots on your teeth IS temporary so don't freak out.
I haven't used Crest White Strips in over 5 years. Since then my teeth have stayed really white and I frequently get compliments or questions on how I get my teeth so white. I decided to get a box to boost the whiteness of my teeth. Wow, I was shocked on how much these have improved! Before the strips were really flimsy, hard to remove from the package and were really hard to keep on your teeth - the old ones would slip or bunch up. These are such an improvement! The new strips remove easily from the plastic they are on. The strips are REALLY adhesive! These will not budge! Since I've purchased I have only used about 4 times and I can already notice a difference. Other people have noticed too. I think these are well worth the money and work as good as a professional treatment, I have had friends who have done professional treatments and their teeth are not as white as mine. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants a brighter/whiter smile!
Crazy the difference in what just 4 treatments have done so far
These do a great job at whitening your teeth. One tip I recommend is getting a pair of scissors, cut the strips out without peeling them, then with a sharpie pen trace the strips to outline your gums and then cut the strips to where they ONLY make contact with your teeth and not your gums; this will greatly reduce the amount of sensitivity you will get from using the strips. However, you will not be able to stretch the strips or else they will not accurately adhere to your teeth. Side note: fold the strips in half to get an idea as to how to center the strips on your teeth and use a mirror when tracing your gums with the sharpie pen. If you want even BETTER results, purchase a blue LED teeth-whitening light: wear the strips as directed, then, with the strips still in place, use the light for about 5-15 minutes, then take everything off. Try to invest in a sensitive toothpaste which you should brush with promptly after whitening.
Highly recommended!!!! I am stunned by the results of this product!! I really wanted to whiten my teeth, but professional treatments are so expensive. I decided to go ahead and give this a try. I used exactly as directed every day for the full 20 days, and my husband kept telling me how white my teeth were getting. It's hard to tell when you look in the mirror everyday, but I knew there was improvement. Then, I looked at the before and after photos and I was amazed. See my attached pics. Love this product!!!

I have been whitening my teeth for years, I go thru spurts where I will whiten for 3 months at a time. Usually I find that my teeth get a little sensitive... I've been using these crest white strips for the last month, daily use leaving them on for 30 mins and I have NO sensitivity. my teeth are dramatically whiter, and they are easy.
I will give a hint, because being the "white strip pro" that I proclaim to be, I didn't read the instructions out of the box... make sure that before you put the strip on your teeth you gently pull both ends of it. this seems to activate the ingredients. I stupidly did not do this the first three strips that I put on and did not get the "whitening" sensation.
These work, there's no denying it. Period. They stay put, as in I can sip water while wearing these.
These WILL whiten natural teeth, no questions. On occasion, I have felt some sensitivity a little while after an application, or some the next day. For me, it's mild and fades quickly. For the majority of applications, there's minimal to none.
They are just so easy to use compared with the trays and other kits that require specific fitting. I've never tried those, I've always stuck with crest whitestrips.
This came with a bonus two 1 hour express packets - which is why I chose this particular box most recently. The one hour express do provide a noticable whitening in one use, yet not immediately wter removing them. It's as if the whitening continues to "develop" over a few hours. So don't worry if you don't see the change using the one hour express right away. It will absolutely be noticable a little later on.
I've used the two hour express, and am using the main ones here and there. I use crest toothpaste as well. That way Ill have plenty of strips remaining for some touch ups here and there. I am absolutely on a budget, and although these are "pricey" ,the benefits are by far worth every penny.
I verified purchased these, yet my previous review was entirely removed. I bought this box after I bought a little sample of toothpaste and a one hour express. I have no affiliation what so ever, literally. I love these and I highly recommend them.
These whitestrips were recommended by my dentist as he felt the Crest brand worked pretty much as well as his high priced professional tray treatments at a far lesser cost. This also beats having special trays made for your teeth and then wearing the whitener substance overnight. No thanks!
I bought and used a pack of this same brand a year ago and it worked well, but this new one I just bought has a redesigned strip shape that is far better than it was a year ago (those strips didn't stay on so well over the 30 minutes you wear them). These new strips stay on perfectly well until you are ready to remove them. They do not irritate my gums at all, and at the end of 22 treatments your teeth are incredibly whiter than before. There are an additional two one-hour treatment packs and I don't really know how they are supposed to be used...as a quick start perhaps? Or a touch-up after the 22 treatments are done? The package doesn't say anything about it, so I may call Crest to find out.
Very simple to use product, just follow the directions and you will get great results... I smoked for 20 years & have been drinking coffee for about 30 so my teeth were pretty stained. After using this product I was amazed at what great job it did. I actually had one person think my teeth were fake because they were so white and a few ask me what I had done & have purchased the same product. My teeth are naturally very straight so this product gave me a much brighter smile. It's not that pure fake looking white you see some folks with it, it is a very natural looking bright white. I will use this again and again if need be.
They did an amazing whitening job on my 83 year old teeth, within two weeks of leaving them on for an hour. However, the top strip in two (so far) of the envelopes had no sticky on them and would not adhere to my teeth . So I had to throw them away, and since they are very expensive, that was very annoying. I hope I won't get any more that don't stick, and I have to say all of them worked fine in my first box.
