Customer Reviews of Crest Whitestrips Pro Effects,10-Day Dental Whitening Formula System, 40 Strips (Packaging May Vary)
Customer Review: crest white strips - really works!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was really surprised as I entered my neighborhood bar when my buddy called out, "dude, did you whiten your teeth?! they're freaking glowing!" that pretty much sums up how effective the strips are - and I was only on day 3!
To be objective, my teeth hurt a little when I first put them on, the type of slight pain you feel when you have cavities. I guess this is what they mean by your teeth becoming sensitive. But the pain isn't bad, and it went away after a few minutes. And also, I didn't notice a HUGE difference myself, but there definitely was a change for the better. And I guess to an outside observer, the change was noticeable.
In short, I think this stuff is awesome. I'll definitely finish it, and probably do it again at the recommended time.
Customer Review: A little awkward, but worth it.
Summary: 4 Stars
The tooth sensitivity is not so hot, but it does lessen. I am on day 3 and it was not as bad today as day 1. The only thing that I recommend not doing is smiling big, then sucking air thru your teeth. Why would I do that? To see if they were still sensitive of course... Well, they are.
Other drawbacks:
Leaving them on for 30 minutes.
They kinda burn your tongue. (because of all the saliva you produce, which takes some of the peroxide onto your tongue)
Otherwise they are great. My mom actually just got a tray from her dentist. I have not noticed any difference in hers (maybe she's not using it?) but she actually asked me if I was doing mine too. Whoo-hoo! Saved all that $$$ at the dentist and getting good results!
Customer Review: It works....with a cost to your teeth and gums
Summary: 2 Stars
If the only thing you want to know is whether or not this product whitens your teeth, it does. However, there are some caveats:
1) It works only on yellow stains
2) May require two units (ie two packages) for heavily stained teeth
3) The hydrogen peroxide (the stuff that whitens your teeth) can burn your gums (it did for me). If this happens to you, stop immediately and let your gums heal. Give it a few days and then reapply. If it still burns, discontinue the product. Also, this product is not for people with sensitive teeth and it inflammes the inner nerves of your teeth.
ALternative, try the Crest Night Effects. You get to control what teeth gets whitened and it doesn't burn your gums or teeth.
Customer Review: Works, but a bit of a pain!
Summary: 4 Stars
Since I drink a lot of tea (hot and iced), my teeth were discolored. I had used Crest Whitestrips about 2 years ago, and they worked well. I thought I would try Whitestrips Premium Plus for a few more bucks. They did work really well, my teeth are whiter after using them. I agree with the reviewers that complain about how small the strips are, and the tendency of the lower strip, especially, to become dislodged by excess saliva. I found myself constantly in the mirror, rearranging the lower strip. The upper one rarely moved. I believe Crest needs to do some tweaking on that lower strip! But despite all the problems I had keeping the lower strip in place, my teeth look a lot better than before, so my goal was achieved!Customer Review: They're A Great Starter....
Summary: 3 Stars
I am only 14, so my teeth have no stains or age spots. My teeth before - hand were not very white, and after the first 3 days I was very pleased with the results, but between days 3 and 10, i did not see much more improvement, in the end, my teeth became whiter, but not the glowing effect that I hoped for. I ordered a gel formula from Amazon 2 - Professional 35% Tooth Whitening Kits with New FCP Enamel Boosters / 20ML Optimized Formula By Watts Power Whitethat i think will give my teeth the glow that I desire after the start from the White Strips, overall, I'm not a huge fan of White Strips due to their not-so-stunning results.
