Customer Reviews of Crest Whitestrips Dental Whitening System, 56 Strips
Customer Review: No Pain No Gain
Summary: 4 Stars
I have found Crest Whitestrips of any version to work really well for me! When I got my braces off my teeth were discolored and i used Crest Whitestrips Classic to make them really white!! There was a little gum sensitivity but it wasn't TOO bad. However, now I am using Crest Whitestrips Premium and WOW by the second day it hurt my gums SO BADLY! I toughed it out and tried it the third day again, but this time i took a Q-tip and i put Vasaline carefully on JUST my gums. It made due for a protective coating and significantly reduced the pain while the Creststrips were on! However my gums are still so sore that i can't even brush my teeth...basically...my Vasaline trick works wonders BUT the Crest Whitestrips Premium are 2X stronger than the Crest Whitestrips Classic, so if your gums/teeth are sensitive I recommend getting the Classic because they really do work for me!Customer Review: Try This Tip for Best Results

I've read several comments by people who said they had trouble keeping the strips in place, I came up with a suggestion that should help anyone who happens to have that problem.
Before placing the whitestrips in place, gently pad a square of toilet paper or tissue to the front and back of your teeth, try to get those teeth as dry as possible. Maintain a big smile so that your teeth are showing, you want to make sure that your lips don't touch them yet. Place the whitestrips in place, one at a time, try allowing for an equal amount of strip for the front AND back of the tooth. Push it firmly in place, and use your fingernail to gently push the front of the strip into the spaces between each tooth (to ensure that the gel makes its between each tooth, and not just the front surface). I have found that by drying your teeth well, the strips won't move the slightest bit, compared to when I first tried them and they slid around a little.
The Whitestrips work well, I noticed a big difference after only five days. Although my teeth weren't that stained before, I was always a little self-conscious about smiling with my mouth open when talking to people. But now, I do it with no hesitation, and have a lot more ladies complimenting me on my smile. It's great what these little whitestrips can do for your self esteem, I'd recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat.
Customer Review: Great!

I went with this (14day classic) set over the premium (7-10day) set because of the milder peroxide strength and boy am I glad I did. Even with the classic set, I was getting sensitive teeth (especially the tops of the bits of the molars that get covered by the strips). As a result, instead of using the strips twice a day like you are supposed to, I only use one set of strips a day (so it will take 28days for me). So far so good - my teeth appreciate the once-a-day regimen and my teeth have been noticeably whiter even after the 3rd day. I do wish the strips for the lower teeth were wider. Highly recommended!Customer Review: AWESOME!

I love these. I've always been self-conscious of my yellow teeth, and I've wanted to try these for a while. Someone told me they made their teeth sensitive for a long time, so I wasn't sure about them. My teeth got a little sensitive about the 8th day, so I stopped for a few days and started again, using them once a day, (which is what the package suggests). They've been fine since then. I tried a sample of Listerine White Strips before these, and they were disgusting and didn't dissolve well at all. I like these way better. My teeth are so white. I love that I don't have to feel self-conscious about them anymore. My husband noticed the difference, too.Customer Review: Starts brighter, then gets whiter
Summary: 5 Stars
Got these for my husband. He has perfectly aligned teeth (naturally) and has never had a cavity. However, we were starting to call his teeth his "pearly yellows." I guess he drinks too much espresso.
Anyhow, we bought the classic strips because of the lower level of peroxide - he is sensitive to stronger amounts (it makes his gums hurt). Within the first 2 days we saw his teeth starting to look brighter, but not really whiter. It wasn't until around the 5th day that we could say, "wow" - this stuff is really working. He didn't even need the full 2 weeks - his teeth are quite white now. He uses the remaining strips once per week to maintain the whiteness.
