So my teeth were yellow. And for the longest time I have wanted to get the whitening stuff. But I couldn't afford the $40-$50 dollars for the stupid things. So today I found a great find. Target advanced whitening wraps. You do just 30 minute, twice a day for 7 days. After only one application, I saw a difference...after two I saw even more. And I still have 6 more days to do this! And the best part...it only cost around $14 for 28 strips...(14 top, 14 bottom). So if you wanted do the whitening, but didn't have enough cash, the target brand works just as good.
oooh thanks! I like the whitestrips, and I was gonna buy them yesterday, but I couldn't bring myself to spend $35 on them. Guess I'll be going to target. (I'm a coffee drinker- need I say more?)
That rocks, glad they worked for you! And $14 isn't bad at all.
I tried the Crest ones but they didn't do anything for me... I think I did them wrong or something!
I'm a coffee drinker, too, BLAH! I've thought about getting veneers but then I'd have to stop drinking coffee and I honestly don't know if I could do that.
I drink a lot of coffe, I mean a lot and well maybe i should try this!! My mom did the crest for a while and I think htey worked a little. I am gonna try the target brand!! MUCH CHEAPER!!
I've never tried the white strips, but I do use the Crest spinbrush pro whitening. It works really well. I think I spent about $6 on it. I use it with Arm & Hammer Advance White toothpaste. It has a shade guide in it and it guarantees to whiten your teeth 3 shades. So far it's been working really well.
I've noticed a huge difference. I went to my aunts for a week and used a regular toothbrush and toothpaster. After that week, my teeth look less white. Going home and using my products for a week made them look so much better.
I want to try the whitestrips. Before I was pregnant, I was so tempted to spen $500 on teeth bleaching at my dentist's office. Looking back, I was crazy.
I tried the 50 $ crest advanced 7 day whitening, even though it was expensive it worked really well, lightened my teeth considerably. Only problem was, since it was designed to work in 7 days instead of 14 days, the chemicals were really strong, and my gums always really hurt after each use, a deep burning sensation which I didn't like.
Honestly I'd like to try the cheaper ones next time, because I've heard they work just as well, for a lot less cash.
Yeah...that's the only really bad part, it can cause teeth sensitivy for the period of treatment. That and it makes you drool. haha.
Whenever I had the strips on, I had to keep a cloth near me to dab at the drool every now and then ;)
i tried those but it made my gums hurt so i stopped. i guess i shoulda stuck it out huh? do they make any for sensitive teeth or gums??
I tired the Arm and Hammer toothpaste but oh god, it tasted BAD.
I've used the paint-on type whitening, and it worked, but it also made my gums burn, which is why I stopped using it, but my teeth look horrible... I am def. getting the target strips.
Just to let you know, while it doesn't really make your gums burn, it DOES make them sensistive. However, they say that will go away after the treatment is finished.
Wow, 14 bucks isn't bad at all!
