teeth whiteners

[runner]

has anyone tried those new teeth whitening strips that crest is putting out?

they're really easy to use and apply...i just started using them a coupla' days ago so i don't know how effective they'll be, but when i use the things i get a pounding headache.

The headaches sound worrying.

What's in the strips?

Me and my associates have devised an ingenious method of whitening teeth.

We begin by using local anesthetic, and a small dose of black tar heroin. Then, we would remove your esophagus for a short while, to improve the healing process.

Using a pair of pliers, we then pull out all of your teeth and place them in a glass of vinegar and salt. We then suture up the wounds, and fit you with some dentures. Our dentures are guaranteed never to dull or darken, and are backed up with a 2% money back guarantee.

We then keep your teeth for necklaces that we sell to tourists.

The active ingredient for all good tooth whiteners is carbamide peroxide. The strength for effectvieness is usually between 12-20%; seems like 16% is the most popular for the 'professional' kits from the dentist for a couple hundred. There's also some 'in the office' laser whitening thats pretty expnsive. You can get the 'professional' kits in the 'net for around $50. The peroxide can cause tooth sensitivity (my teeth usu. ache a little fo a couple days after a few treatments) and may irritate your gums if you get too much on them. The kit is works very well from my experience, and the product stores for a while for a 'freshen up' every 6 mos - 1 yr or so..

Got good results w/ Crest strips- not as white as Seinfeld's Elaine, but good- and for only $40 compared to expensive dentist visits & procedure

Dazzling White is a good product, from Rembrandt. I have never used anything else but its about 15 bucks for 4 small tubes and some whitening paste. It works very well but you have to brush at least twice a day for 5 mins a piece.

read my other post, stop wasting time with over the counter shit, get a kit straight from your dentist, amazing results!

don't waste our money on drugstore brans stuff. you gotta get the stuff from a dentist for any sort of potency that will work.
the stuff use sometimes gives me headaces too if i leave it on too long or used too much of the product.

WRONG!! ive been using the crest white strips for about ten days now and my teeth are whiter than they have ever been. i dont get headaches from it though. and if what they say is true, whats 14 days of headaches for 6 months of white teeth.
