i have used crest white stips before and they worked pretty well without any sensitvity. I also once had my teeth whitened professionally and had a allergic reaction that was pretty bad. i dont want that happening again and be worse.
But seeing different articles i see there is also gosmile..which is supposed to be really good. Anyone have comments comparing the two? or has used gosmile before?
Teeth whitening?
Please be careful. I whitened so much i lost enamel and had extreme sensitivity.
Reply:When comparing tooth whitening systems be sure to check the level of Carbamid peroxide. This is the active ingredient and higher levels can cause gingival irritation and sensitivity. I think the regular strength crest white strips are around 12% or so and up around 17 or 18% is generally ok for most people. Everyone is different so see what levels you can take.
Reply:The in-dentist office whitening and their take home quits prove to be way to strong, and almost always cause tooth sensitivity. In my own experience I thought I was going to have to pull out all my teeth by hand just to stop the pain (got a take home kit from my dentist). The Gosmile system, seems very effective..according to the personal testemonials..but I take those with a grain of salt. I%26#039;m sure that there are peopl who don%26#039;t make the cut and have some bad things to say.
Gosmile also seems exspensive, but it offers a maitenance system to keep the white so it seems okay.
Slate magazine did a segment and by far the best and most cost effecrtive for the guy who bought and tested out a bunch of different kits, was the Crest white strips.
I can%26#039;t find any bad reviews on Go smile, and honestly most people say their teeth maintain a nice white for atleast 10 months. So 120.00 wouldn%26#039;t be so bad if that one kit will keep you happy for so long.
I%26#039;d try Gosmile..it seems more long term. Good luck
Reply:Commercial tooth whiteners use hydrogen peroxide and
are expensive and inconvenient. A cheap and natural
tooth whitening home remedy uses few strawberries
but certain precautions have to be taken.
