Hello. Does anyone know if crest
whitestrips work? Also, I have a few
gaps in my teeth, and wanted to know if
it's okay to use the whitestrips. Thank
you.

Yup they work but you have to stick with
it to get noticeable results. It takes
anywhere between 1-2 weeks of straight
usage before you will begin to notice a
difference. Just read and follow the
directions and you should begin to see
results. If the crest white strips you
buy at the store aren't strong enough for
you, ask your dentist for professional
crest white strips - you can only get them
through a dentist and they are a bit
stronger than the ones you buy in the
store. I use the professional ones and
have definitely noticed a difference.
Also, just a side note, my dentist said
not to use them right after you brush your
teeth because your teeth are slick then
and the gel can't grab on to your teeth.

Hey wait....
You can use the strips and yeah they work,
but you may want to check out the crest
night effects. No worry on gaps or
anything. Just paint it on your teeth
sleep wake up and in 3-5 days you will see
a big difference. The package comes with
a supply for 14 days but I only had to use
it for 7.
My dentist wanted 1200 dollars to remove
coffee stains from 3 teeth. I used this
stuff for 14 dollars. Talk about a
savings. And the strips cost here 28
dollars. The night effects does the job
just as good with less time and money.
And you can reapply it again in 6 months
if you need it. Im not at the 6 mth part
yet so cant say if ill need it or not, but
so far no. It really really is worth
it.
The only thing you will for sure need to
do is buy a new tooth brush put it aside
for after you are done with the night
effects, it will ruin the brush, it getts
sticky but use the same one until you
finished.
