crest whitening strips?

Depends on how fast you want results.  The regular Crest strips give you full results in 14 days while the Premium Crest strips give you the same results in 7 days.  The price for premium is higher though.

The best way is to use a combination of techniques.  Crest Preminum Plus whitening strips work good, but can cause sensitivity.  Dentists use hydrogen peroxide gel to bleach teeth.  Toothpastes with hydrogen peroxide will aid in making your teeth shine.  My recommendation is to use Arm & Hammer whitening toothpaste, Listerine whitening mouthwash with Crest Premium Plus strips during the day and Crest Night Effects at night to make your teeth shine their best.

Crest Whitening Strips work really well. Only problem is that they could possibly make your teeth more sensitive. I used them and saw a difference but stopped because of the teeth sensitivity thing.

If you really want to have white teeth, try a bleaching kit off ebay. Theyre cheap and they work! (i think i paid $8US for a 22% kit and 35% gel) The active ingredient is carbamide peroxide which is one of the whitening agents that dentists use. Its available in 22 and 35% strength. Id start out with the 22% and work up to the 35% in a couple of weeks :) They dont recommend you use the product if you are under 18, so if you are i would try colgate whitening which is also pretty good and easier to use as well.

Crest Whitening with Scope (for now, I switch around with the Gel type pastes.)\n\nSoap- I always use some kind of scented pump body wash, not a bar.  Right now it is Arbonne's pampermint next in line is Suave's Aloe Vera green colored body wash.

That would depend upon the technique used. You can spend anywhere from $29 to $850 depending upon where you live and whether you have power/laser bleaching (common ones include ZOOM and BriteSmile) or simply professional home trays made by a dentist, or strips purchased at the drugstore (which typically require more work and have a lower concentration of bleaching agent). Some people need stronger, deeper bleaching, others just a cleaning and strips might be fine. Maintenance is the big thing to keep them white. Professional trays last longer and you don't have to keep buying the entire kit from the store as with the strips.

crest whitestrips, as mentioned, are great. BUT the equate version of whitestrips works EXACTLY the same, but are much cheaper. Just be sure not to wear them (either brand) longer than the box says to, or else you will end up with VERY sensitive teeth.

The manufacture has to put a date on the product that indicates when the product has expired.  Most of these dates are far ahead of when the drug become inactive.  The most likely thing that will happen with whitening strips is that they just won't whiten your teeth.\n\nLook at the ingredients and see if they contain some sort of poison - which I would doubt.  Try them and see what happens.  Or just use any one of the many whitening tooth pastes.  I use Crest and it works well for me. I use it every two days.

Contact a dentist that carries the Nite White system.  They will make custom fitted trays that allow for better whitening than any of the strips that you can buy. (The strips are OK, but they move around on your teeth while wearing them, and don't whiten anywhere near as well.)  You put the whitening gel in the trays and wear them anywhere from one hour to overnight, depending on the strength of the gel.  You will see dramatic results in about two weeks.

Crest Whitestrips are not supposed to cover all of your teeth. They are designed to cover the teeth that show when you smile. Make sure you brush twice a day and floss so all your teeth should stay healthy.

It does also eat away the glue. Tooth whitening strips are NOT healthy at all. The best way to whiten your teeth is through frequent brushing/flossing. I recommend the Braun OralB rechargeable brush. It works great! Also, go to your dentist for a whitening treatment. Store bought treatments decalcify your teeth greatly!

I brush twice a day morning and night, with "Arm and Hammer" peroxide and baking soda. Peroxide whitens your teeth. If you really want white teeth talk to your dentist and ask them about teeth whitening, they whiten your teeth with lasers. I wouldn't use the whitening strip, they eat away the enamal on your teeth. I would get it done professionally.

I advise my patients to use \n\nColgate Sensation Deep Clean Whitening\n\nThis has Bicarbonate of soda in it but does not have the strong taste that Arm and Hammer has.\n\nIt is very mildly abrasive, enough that it will remove staining but not damage the enamel on your teeth.\n\nBeware of using Pearl Drops, Eucryl or other so called tooth polishes. They are too abrasive to be used regularly and make the staining worse eventually by roughening the enamel so the stain sticks all the more.\n\nIf it's any recommendation, I use this myself too!\n\np.s. Crest Whitening Strips are NOT available in the UK, the Americans have not been reading the questions again...........

There was an infomercial for Didi-7 a few years ago.  That stuff worked FANTASTIC.  Other than that, try anything (other than chlorine bleach) that whitens gently.  Toothpaste works, depending on the brand.\n\nMy step-daughters had to have perfect white sneakers for cheerleading every game, but they did cheers on a cinder track & would ruin them every time.

Well ..theres some trouble there because once you get your braces off there would be yellow splotches.. If you get your braces off soon I would go to a whitening speacilst and its only 100$ to completely whiten them they will be PEARLY WHITE! or if you want something in the lower price range try Crest White Strips there awesome! Or a whitening toothpaste GOOOD LUCK IN THE FUTURE!! :) :) :)
