What do you use for teeth whitening

[linz]

I have crest whitening toothpaste...3d I think? But I feel like it does nothing. I don't drink coffee, just occasional mt dew. Are crest stops worth it? Or anything else to try?

Honestly, if you don't have dental work on the front teeth or gingival recession or sensitivity, those white strips work great.

Otherwise, you can ask your dentist about in-office treatments or trays.

I use crest white strips and think they work quite well.

I've used both Crest strips and professional trays in the past. I got a steal of a deal on the trays because H's uncle is my dentist and he cut H and I a break before our wedding.

I got the 5-minute sensitive strips last time and they work great. I only need to use them a few times to see a difference.

The toothpaste is a gimmick. It doesn't actually whiten your teeth and if anything it will damage your teeth over time because it has small abrasive particles in it. White strips are fine as long as you follow the instructions. I typically give my patients custom made trays and gel to use at home and they love the results.

I like white strips. I have had the custom trays and gel from my dentist and used white strips, and I don't really think the trays are that much better--not enough to justify the price difference for me.
