    Default Crest Whitestrips

    I don't know if there is already a thread on this (I did a search and nothing came up). But, I just wanted to tell everyone who was thinking about spending the money to try it: It works awesomely well! I just finished using it for 14 days. And my teeth are fucking WHITE. I used it in conjunction with the Lysterine Whitening Mouth Wash. I used the Mouth Wash once a day and did the strips twice a day.

    So, if you want to whiten your teeth...and you were thinking about doing the Crest Strips...I think you'll be pleasantly pleased.

    I bought the Crest STrips once too. You're right, they do work. They gave me some free Crest White toothpaste with mine. I dont think I did the 14 day, but the 7 day (I was in a rush for results lol) but maybe this time I'll try the other one as well.

    Also, I bought a teeth whitener on ebay, it gave even better results than the crest strips.

    I was actually thinking about dropping the $500 on a BriteSmile treatment. Must be a difference in how long it lasts at that price.

    don't waste your money on the britesmile shit...and this is coming from a girl who spent over $17,000 in dental treatments (mostly cosmetic) in the past 2 years.

    When I got veneers on my top teeth, I asked my dentist (who is totally the type of person to try to get me to spend more money than I have to) about bleaching the lowers, and he gave me a tray and some gels, which is the same gels available OTC.

    And I have a question about the whitestrips....it has some for uppers and lowers, but it is possible to use the uppers on the lowers? obviously don't need to treat my veeneers (they don't stain), but I need to whiten the lowers to match....and I'm interested in whitestrips.

    Emily, the strip for the uppers is shaped differently than the ones for the lowers. The one for the lowers is like one rectangle strip while the other one is a little smaller. I guess you could but the upper one would color the four teeth you have in front and would be hard to extend to the others.

    CK, you know youre ebay! I think Im going to order one. CWS work for people who dont have as much discoloration. I sometimes do the strips for like 40min max. once and I look better. My teeth get sensitive at 45min and start hurting so I dont do it that long anymore.

    Well, I hate to say it, but some years ago, my dentist told me to stay away from all this stuff. He said it's bad for your teeth. But, to each his own.

    I've tried Crest Whitestrips before and I got good results, although the strip didn't stay on my bottom teeth very well. Thanks for reminding me VG; I think I'll try them again soon!

    I agree with whirlerz...I have thin dental enamel & can't use things like Creststrips or trays.....it erodes enamel. A cheaper and less damaging brightener for sensitive teeth is baking soda (& hydrogen peroxide if you can hack it) The mild abrasive action rubs plaque & tartar off.
    Teeth aren't meant to be blinding white, more like a delicate ivory.

    ^^At the vet's, we used hydrogen peroxide as an emergency way to induce vomit...you don't throw up with the peroxide? Or are you just very careful not to ingest it?

    In any case, I agree with the blinding white thing. My teeth are white but not blinding...I don't like that hollywood crazy white look. It's distracting, and whenever I see people who over bleach up close, it looks freaky IMO. That said, I have crest-stripped in the past, but I found it made my teeth too sensitive.

    Oh, you don't swallow the hydrogen peroxide..you use the baking soda & peroxide separately, and scrub-spit-scrub-rinse.

    Well, I don't have blinding white teeth...but after so many years of drinking coffee and smoking (which I quit years and years ago), my teeth were just a "warm yellow" type of look. I hated it. So, I used the Crest Strips and I feel much better and more confident about my smile. I don't want the "bright white" look, but it's nice to have teeth that look clean.

    Ha, me too. Actually the other night while I was talking to a custy. He was like, "dam girl you're teeth are beautiful! Did you ever get braces or your teeth whitened?" I just simply told him no and them pulled out my biggest with the dimples to match!

    Man, my teeth even bling when I'm on stage dancing. I checked, my teeth are awesome!

    The ? I have is, ok you've whitened your teeth. Now, what if you're still drinking, coffee, tea, etc? Do you continue the 'strips? And, are you at all concerned about "stripping" enamal off your teeth? I happen to have very sensitive teeth/mouth, & have gone thru numerous cavity fillings, impacted wisdom tooth, etc. I guess I don't want to take any chances. I am supposed to see a new dentist this coming week, so I will ask. However, I'm sure he might try to sell me on an office whitening treament.

    Oh, ck's post reminded me- you can see white dental fillings under the blacklight onstage- they're a different tone than natural enamel, naturally. (In case you want to check your dental work out when you turn around in front of the stage mirror. LOL)
