I tried them and they made my teeth really sensitive, so I only used half the box, but I didn't see a difference with that.

i hated these strips. they were horrible. most importantly, they made my teeth SO sensitive that at some points it hurt to take in air because my teeth were so sensitive to anything, and also, they stick good the first 3 seconds you have them on, then, because of your saliva, they start to come off and all you taste is that disgusting flavor of the strips medicine thingy and its horrible. if you want to get your teeth really white and have it stay white, than I would recommend just going to your dentist.
There was even a spot on one of my teeth that was more prone to the whitening active ingredient than other parts of my teeth so there was this white spot that just stood out lol... it faded in about 3-4 days... that just shows how long the whitening lasts

I didn't have an issue with sensitivity. I think it depends on the person. But I liked the Rembrandt strips better because they were harder and stayed on my teeth better than the flimsy Crest ones. I noticed results with both of them so I guess it's personal preference.

You have to use it regularly and avoid coffee, tea, and soda (dark ones). Missing applications really do you in.
If you do everything correctly it will get whiter but it's not that noticeable and it also doesn't last very long.
I knew people who did it for their wedding. My wife and I did it. In the end we agreed it was probably a waste of our time and money. But then again our teeth weren't that bad.

I bought the big box of them and did not like them. I thought about writing to crest to get my money back. They stick pretty good to your teeth, but then they start dissolving, and it tastes yucky, and it just feels very uncomfortable having those things on. I'll stick to getting my teeth professionally whitened.

Yes they are good. My son uses them all the time. His dentist recommended them instead of the trays. He back to back boxes. So in other words uses one box then uses another immediately for the results he wants.
After uses only straws with his drinks.

They made my teeth a lot whiter, but they also made them really sensitive, so in the long run I wouldn't recommend them unless you are trying to look nice for a special occasion or something.

I think they work great and I'm even a smoker...don't drink coffee though, so I'm not sure if they help against those stains.
They made mine sensitive too, just like they said. So yea, that was a pain.

I tried them and my teeth became super sensitive. I didn't last more than 2 days because my teeth hurt so bad.
