I believe it damages your enamel.

It can make your teeth sensitive temporarily, I don't think it damages them though.

This is true.

I challenge anyone to put on white strips for a period longer than 2 consecutive hours. It will be a very painful experience.

Does anyone know how the whitening stuff works on fake teeth? I have 1 and 1/2 of my top front being something that isn't actually teeth, will these lighten too if I use the strips? or will I look like an idiot with them staying the same color?

lol, doesnt the box say to leave them on for like 5-30 minute depending on type?

i tried them once and got good results. made my teeth sensitive for the last 2-3 days of using them and 1-2 days after, but lasted for a couple months.

fortunately i dont have candy corn teeth, so i haven't done them again.

Crest white strips made my teeth hurt like [censored] and didn't really work. I went to my dentist and he made imprint molds of my teeth for this Colgate Visible White stuff where you squirt some gel into the trays and put it on your teeth for two weeks.

My teeth where noticably whiter after just two days. It was really fantastic. I think it cost about $400, I'm not sure. I can't imagine paying like $1-$2000 for the next step up when this worked so well.
