A few years back, I noticed my teeth had become a little yellow due to years of coffee and such. Since SG is one of those person deathly afraid of going to the dentist, I opted for over the counter teeth whitening products. I tried Crest Teeth Whitening Strips with some skepticism but SG was delighted at the result. I have receive quite a few positive comments about my pearly white teeth. Even my dentist is surprise at how white my teeth have become without his help.I have been using Crest Classic Whitening Strips since but have not followed instructions completely. For example, I am supposed to use the strips twice daily for 30 minutes each session but I only have time for one application daily for 30 minutes. Initially, I used the strips once a day for 14 days straight. The result was pretty good with only one application instead to twice daily per instruction. Since my teeth seems pretty white still, I just reapply again every 6 months with a 7 day session, applying once daily for 30 minutes. One thing I am going to say is my gum do become a little sensitive during the treatment process but the feeling disappears as soon as I stop whitening applications. So I am now half way through my semi-annual touch up session and still happy with the progress.
For Classic strips, each box contains 24 upper strips and 24 lower strips which last me about 18 months. For $24.99 per box, SG thinks it's pretty savvy! So how do you keep your teeth white?
Wow, I need to find this! Seems pretty good. Never did anything to keep my teeth white! I just brushed teeth everyday, 3 times a day!
ReplyDeleteI keep meaning to do this. I really need to whiten my teeth. And I don't even drink coffee. I think it's the red wine :-/
ReplyDeleteI use the exact same stuff! Sometimes if I have a special event coming up I'll do a few days of "crash" whitening in between updates, too.
