Are Crest White Strips® just as effective and easy to use?
NO! Crest White Strips® are self-adhesive plastic strips that are designed to stick to the teeth and release teeth whitening gel. Do they work? Well sort of. First, most users find them difficult to properly position and keep in place for the recommended time. Second, they must be used twice a day for up to four weeks. Third, they only cover the front six teeth and don’t fit large, small or crooked teeth properly. They can help whiten the front teeth but your smile becomes “two toned”. Look in a mirror. When you smile you show teeth behind the canines. With White Strips® the teeth behind the canines stay dark making the smile two different shades, dark and light. This is not the case with the Bling System that treats all the teeth uniformly.
