Anyone use them? I got them the day I got my braces off (over a month ago)...and I've forgotten to use them after about day 5 out of 10. My teeth look pretty white anyway...

Discuss...

I used them last spring and didn't see a big difference. My teeth were already pretty white, though.

I only got them because they were on sale and it was right before I was going to be on stage a lot for Nationals (dance competition).

They're still pretty white now. *shrugs*

My teeth were white when I got my braces off...everyone was shocked...because they were surprisingly white...

I just wanted the white strips because I wanted my teeth to be *perfect*.

BTW- I love your avatar. Idina would be jealous. (You're impersonating her in Take Me or Leave Me, no?)

No...I just felt the need to get on a pool table and pose.


of course. Thanks.

IMHO, I didn't think the crest thingies work too well, and yet I use them anyway. I don't make a lot of sense sometimes...and I agree, Parks is a hottie on a pool table! I jest. Or do I?

They worked a little for me. However, they also made my teeth VERY sensitive and that side effect lasted for over 6 months after I used them for the 7 days.

I got old peoples' toothpaste...enamal strengthening toothpaste to go along with it

They use to make this really good enamel toothpaste...now it's gone. Oh well...I like Crest toothpaste, not the whitestrips...whitening plus scope, Minty Fresh Stripe!

The white strips work well for me. I'm a big coffee drinker, and the strips keep me looking fresh!

Bah. No toothpaste is minty enough, except Mentadent, which is hard to find in tube form.

My dad uses Mentadent. I used to use it when I was too young to keep up with toothpaste...

I got my teeth Bleached. I work for a Dentist, so it was free. I wasn't going to pass up $600 worth of anything for free. BIG MISTAKE. My teeth are so super sensitive now. Sometimes they just hurt for no reason, and I had it done last year.
For people with really yellow teeth, it's worth trying anything; but I already had pretty white teeth.
I would reccomend the white strips if your teeth aren't that bad.

Crest White Strips don't work. And the model on the box and in the commercials does not use the product.

My teeth are pretty white, and I used them 2 weeks ago.

I went to a wedding this weekend, and people complimented me on my smile.

I used it a looong time ago and nothing really happened. I think I will eventually splurge and get it done by the dentist.

Not sure why, but they REALLY work for me.

well, when your teeth look like buttered corn, they should help some.

My teeth really were fine before, but I used them and they made a noticable difference. I've also used Crest Vivid White toothpaste and that works well too.

I used them and they made a bit of a difference, but the problem was that I had chipped my front tooth in a freak kickball game, and so the fake part of my tooth didn't react to the whitening treatment, and now I look really stupid.

So, don't use these if you have caps on your teeth.

Oh, now they are "Enamel Safe"...if you all didn't know that. It says that on the box, atleast.
