Crest teeth whitening strips are extremely suitable and easy to use. You can use them anywhere and whenever is essential: at the time of bath, looking at e-mail, driving, TV watching, reading books or talking to somebody on a phone.

Here are some steps on how to use Crest Whitestrips properly.

Peel

• First brush your teeth with a wet toothbrush to remove the layer of plaque (toothpaste is unnecessary – no fluoride toothpaste allowed). Rinse your teeth well with water. Tooth enamel has pores, and the pores need to be open for the chemical to penetrate.
• To avoid gum irritation, allow for some time to pass after you have brushed your teeth to apply strips. Do NOT brush immediately BEFORE applying strips.
• Open blue pouch marked “Upper” and remove the strip
• Slowly peel strip off clear backing.

Apply

• Look out for mirror and in front of it; put a strip with a gelled piece to your teeth. Make sure the strip is in good contact with the teeth.
• Align strips with gum line and press gently for good contact. These thin, flexible strips conform to the shape of your teeth, and are coated with a gel that contains hydrogen peroxide, the same enamel-safe ingredient used by dentists for teeth whitening.
• If the strips begin to slip, close your mouth and create suction to tighten the strips up again. Don’t touch the strips excessively with your tongue.
• Fold the rest of strip behind your teeth to keep in place.

Reveal

• Leave the strips on for a recommended time in the instructions and do not overbleach your teeth, as this can lead to sensitivity. Just remove the whitening strip in 30 minutes or can be used for more 5 minutes in case of for Crest Whitestrips Daily Multi care and then takes out strips. Do not use the similar strip for more than one time.
• If you notice gel on your teeth, brush, rinse, or wipe it away.
• After using Crest Whitestrips, you can immediately brush your teeth gently. You also may rinse your teeth with mouthwash if you want to. It is fine to eat and drink afterwards as well. Just stay away from anything staining, like dark sodas, tea, cranberries, etc for about 2 hours. The pores in your teeth are opened after whitening process and can be more susceptible to staining

Do you want to buy Crest teeth whitening system? Read these cautions first before you use any Crest Whitestrips products.

1. Crest Whitestrips will only Whiten Natural Teeth. It will not whiten caps, crowns, veneers, fillings or dentures.
2. Crest Whitestrips are not intended for use in children under the age of 12 (under age 18 for Crest Whitestrips Supreme). The pulp chamber, or nerve of the tooth, is enlarged until this age. Whitening procedures could irritate the pulp or cause it to become sensitive.
3. The bleaching effect works best on yellow stains. If your stains are due to tetracycline (an antibiotic) grey stains in a band on your teeth, the strips may not work well for you. Your best bet is to have a dentist whiten your teeth in the office for two sessions and then use White Strips to continue the bleaching process.
4. The strips only cover your front teeth, so only your front teeth will bleach. But it is not big deal since most people notice the front 6 teeth anyway. It is not recommended to use Crest Whitestrips on back teeth. The strips provided for your upper and lower teeth are designed to fit the front teeth only. Using the strips on the back teeth may result in the strips coming loose and eventually falling off during the wear period.
5. Do not use Crest Whitestrips that have passed its expiration date. Although they are still safe, the whitening ingredient’s efficacy will be weakened. So, check the expiration date noted in the packaging before you buy and make sure you will have finished the treatment before that.
6. Do not use on loose teeth or temporary or loose restorations.
7. Do not use with dental braces. Braces will cover some areas of tooth surface while Crest Whitestrips will whiten only the portion of the teeth with which the whitening gel comes in contact. So you may get unevenly colored teeth when the braces are removed. Moreover, metal in the braces could oxidize and change color
8. If you have dental work or staining from medication, ask your dentist to determine if whitening is appropriate
9. Do not cut the Whitestrips into smaller pieces. If cut into smaller pieces, the strips could dislodge from the teeth and have the potential to become aspirated.
10. Some people may experience tooth sensitivity or gum irritation when using teeth whitening systems. This is temporary and not harmful.
