crest white strips.. .do they really work?!


Question Posted Friday December 24 2004, 3:12 pm

has anyone tried those crest whitestrips? i was wondering when you put the whitestrip on top of your teeth, how does the bleach stay on w/o your tongue getting it off? and PLEASE tell me the truth: are they really effective? how much do they whiten?

Yes, they work REALLY well. I used to have the yellowest teeth and then I used them and now people tell me all the time that I have the WHITEST teeth! And I used them like almost a year ago and my teeth are STILL white! The first few times you use them you might be drooling a lot or something but you just have to remember it's OK to slurp up that drool! lol. And don't worry about licking the bleach stuff.. it actually tastes kinda sweet! lol. After the first few times you use them it will get a lot easier and when you have them on you like don't even notice, you kind of forget that they're there. Infact many times I accidently left t hem on for like 2 hours cuz I forgot I had them on lol. And I wouldn't suggest wearing both top and bottom at the same time. That might be kinda hard. Just put one on and leave it there for 30 min then take it off and immediately brush your teeth. Do that twice a day. I used Crest White Strips Premium so it only took a week for my teeth to get white. Good luck! :-D

hey they work really well and you dont get them on ur tongue or nothing. you just place them in and leave them on for 30 minutes twice a day. i might get a taste of it but thats only a little bit and what i do it after the times up i brush my teeth again to add some polish to it. and brush before you use it too even tho it said not to cuz it works better that way. hope i helped! take care. x3 SweetStar.

yes, they work. but don't expect your teeth to go from yellow to dazzling white! they improve the color of your teeth and they stayed on for me. but, the whiteness will fade. after about 6-8 months the coloring is completely gone so if you do it once, be ready to do it again.
good luck

I tried it before and just dont like lick the stip when its on. It worked for my friend. I just didnt continue to use them. No need for me. anyways they work pretty good actually and i remember when i took it off it tasted real gross so i took a wet paper towel and rubbed it off. They whitened pretty good for her so i take it there are pretty good and effective!! Happy holidays Please Rate **trix**

My advice is don't even bother trying them. They don't work and they make your teeth sensitive. I ahve never met a person that has actually used them and liked them. ~Brit

Yes they do work. My mom is using them right now and I know people who have used them in the past. They aren't exactly comfortable on your teeth though. They strips are thick and they stick on there, but they are difficult to talk with. So I would recommend them, but make sure you remember to use them every day and beware: you'll probably sound weird when you're talking. Hope this helped =)

I did crest white strips and yes they work. You HAVE to remember to do it everyday though. But i think its annoying because I cant really talk and it just feels weird. And also you have to try not to move your tounge a lot..and your lips dont rub it off..I think. I just dont talk while I have them on!

I tried them. They taste awful and i wouldn't recomend them, but they work. And nothing really rubs off. But if you DO use them, dont put your tongue around the strip when it's on your teeth, it has a gooey, yucky taste. Hope i helped!

I have tried them. Yeah, they will lighten your teeth (to see a difference), but you HAVE to use it EVERYDAY or it won't work!!! And you have to do it for like 3 months to REALLY WHITEN your teeth so they will look good... I am a forgetful person and it was hard for me to keep going, so i just quit... If you do it everyday for 2 weeks, that should whiten them... Just make sure you don't touch your teeth with anything, especially the tongue! because it will just wipe off! I hoped i helped!! :)
