Don't do those things if they discolor your teeth. Brown teeth are not natural. Off-white is natural.


Actually, I don't, but you must admit...the entire world is not as perfect as you.....that is why they make these. You just don't get it, or are doing your best to be an a*s....either way.....I don't give a sheat.....
 
They didn't work at all for my g/f after using half the box on her top teeth. So she called to get her money back. They accidentally sent two checks for $36.xx Oops. Ya, she cashed them both too. Oh well, crest can afford it. If they notice and send a bill, she'll pay it.

Actually, it seems the world is full of people like you who take things much too personally! Chill out, dude, it's not the end of the world.

I just find it funny what people will do to themselves to "look good". 🙂
 
These things are actually very dangerous. What they do is take the enamel off of your teeth allowing them to get cavaties easier and have less layers of protection against decay


OMG: u dont make stuff up it makes u look dumb; and convinces others that dont know any better


I saw the $100+ price tag at the price club and did not try to pick it up.

ditto!
$100 from suckers club?!?!?! its more like 40 at most! more for professional verision; but still not that much



yes btw crest whitestrips work; take my word for it, or the clinical data that backs it up!


is there an alternative to these?

yes the alternative is a professional dental whitening which probably wont work any better and will cost 500$+ dollars

Your local drugstore will have several different kinds of tooth whitening kits, but most of these will consist of a jaw retainer thingie that you heat up and bend into shape around your teeth, remove, and then you squirt hydrogen peroxide into these things, then put them back over your teeth. Yep, same ingredients.. The whitestrips just simplify the application method.
 
Is the whiteness supposed to be permanent, or does it fade as time goes by? (Assuming everything to be constant, no coffee, tea, soda, smoking)

Well.. according to Crest themselves, they say it lasts 6 months..
 
hydrogen peroxide acts like a bleaching agent. it'll go away over time if you don't "maintain" them. i think they recommend using their "whitening" toothpaste as well. iono... never got through my box... i guess i should start again.
 
If you can, get them through your dentist. They cost about the same that way, but the dentist can sell you professional whitening ones. These are extra strength and work much better than the off-the-shelf variety (even though they both work, why not get the better ones).
 
i wanna try these too... i remember a thread about getting one free if you buy one... i vaguely remember that. if i find it.. i'll link it.
 
My sister tried this.....the strips are only long enough for like the front 6 teeth. Also, it didn't whiten the upper/lower part of the teeth near the gums because of the curve. Overall, the strips did make her teeth white, but it just looks unbalanced if you look really really closely. If you have your receipt, send it for a full refund within 60 days or get another box free with the UPC code.
