Customer Reviews of Crest 3D White Whitestrips With Advanced Seal Professional Effects Enamel Safe Dental Whitening Kit, 20-count box
Customer Review: I'm impressed for the most part
Summary: 4 Stars
I wasn't terribly optimistic about how well these would work. I only bought them since they were on sale and decided to give them a shot. I recently quit smoking and was giving myself a kind of "bodily makeover", but I don't have infinite funds to spend and can't afford a professional job. I'm only about halfway through the carton and I have better results already than I expected- which was little to none. But they aren't without their pitfalls.
The upsides: you do see results fairly quickly and they aren't a big problem in terms of time to use them or very difficult to use and comfortable enough to wear. I only had a couple of times where they folded in on themselves while I was applying and had to pull them apart a little wet, but they were still usable. I dry my teeth with a piece of cotton and brush/floss just before I apply to make sure there isn't anything in the way of good adhesion. A word of warning, once they are stuck, they are stuck. It's not easy to reposition them after they are pressed onto your teeth, so you have to do it right the first time.
The downsides: they can cause some sensitivity and gum irritation. I personally didn't find it too troublesome and the tooth sensitivity faded after a few days even while continuing to use them. As I understand it, not everyone has the same experience and it is too bothersome for some people to continue use. My gums are a bit irritated in spots, but honestly I've lost track of time on a few occasions when wearing them and had them in a lot longer than recommended. So had I only worn them for the recommended 30 minutes, that might not be such a problem. On the other hand, that showed how comfortable they can be, if I could totally forget about them for well over an hour.
They can be difficult to get in between the teeth. I usually use a fingernail to push them between my teeth a bit. I've noticed that where there isn't good direct contact like between teeth and right at the gumline, it is less white. Also, I have flourodosis spots on my teeth. So my teeth naturally have a lot of white splotches and while these help to blend those in better, they will not go away- something I vaguely hoped for, but didn't expect.
I also found that when I have bad dry mouth, they are more uncomfortable to use. I initially thought I could wear them while on my treadmill and that didn't fly. The exertion combined with these odd tasting plastic sheets on my teeth and needing to drink lots of water, just wasn't going to work and was really uncomfortable. You can sip water during use, but I've found a good sized gulp will destroy the adhesion and taste terrible. Considering the cost, you don't really want to waste any of them.
Lastly, don't expect perfectly bright white teeth like you would see in a commercial and I'm not confident it is truly "professional level whitening" in a box. In fact, those are usually either caps or veneers- in other words, they aren't even real teeth. If you have any artificial dental work, these won't change the color of it, you will need replacement for that. Also, it will depend on what you are starting with as to how white they will get. If you are starting with heavily stained teeth from years of smoking, coffee and soda drinking, etc., you might just want to pop for the professional job at the dentist's office since this will only take them up a few shades. On that note, I was told by a dentist friend that post professional whitening, one should avoid the big teeth stainers- cigarettes, coffee, dark teas and sodas for 2 weeks. Otherwise, you tend to reverse all the work that was done. In order to try and get the best results I can, I've been avoiding all those during use, so that could be helping to get better results, I can't be sure. I'd rather go overboard and get better results than risk not getting the most for my money because of something that could have been easily avoided. And it doesn't cost a cent to avoid those things. Annoying perhaps, but monetarily speaking, that is something you can do at home without spending a dime or second of your time and there are other obvious health benefits to cutting out those things.
I was also using the Crest 3D white toothpaste prior to using this product and will continue to do so. It has a minor effect, but takes a very long time for even slight results. That also might be increasing results somewhat, but again, I can't be sure. I just figure it can't hurt. You still have to brush anyway, right?
Bottom line, the product works, just don't expect that a do-it-yourself carton is going to make your teeth look like a movie star's. If that is truly what you're after and any less is a disappointment, see a cosmetic dentist for an all over professional job and you'll likely need some artificial work done since very few people have such perfect or white teeth naturally.

FAQ
 |
Are Whitestrips Safe?
Yes. When you use Crest 3D White Whitestrips as directed, you're using the same ingredient dentists use to give their patients whiter teeth. In fact, extensive testing has shown Crest 3D White Whitestrips to be safe on enamel.
Simply place the strips on your upper and lower teeth once a day, as directed – they're designed to stay safely in place. In just minutes, remove them and you're done for the day. It's that simple.
Remember, there’s a reason Crest Whitestrips is the #1 dentist recommended teeth whitening brand!
Why Whiten?
For just one moment, smile. Then think about it. That all-important grin is how you greet the world and your loved ones every day. Of course, it's also a big part of the first impressions you make. A recent study shows that people with whiter teeth appear more confident, are more likely to be hired for jobs, and even enjoy better dates.*
So whitening isn't just about caring for your teeth. It's about feeling your best and living life accordingly. And you can get whiter teeth for as little as $25 or in as little as 5 minutes once a day.

Do Whitestrips Really Work?
In a word, yes! With Crest® 3D White Whitestrips®, you'll get whiter teeth, and Crest guarantees you'll be happy with the results.
Crest 3D White Whitestrips give you whiter teeth because the strips are designed to conform to your teeth and keep the whitening gel in contact with them long enough to get at stain build-up below the tooth surface.
Plus, if you use Crest 3D White Advanced Vivid or Professional Effects Whitestrips, you can start seeing results after as little as 3 days. Full results after completion of kit.
