Question about teeth whitening

[Heather12801]

I have tried many different products to whiten my teeth, and they all cause my teeth to hurt really bad!! I used the regular Crest Whitestrips, and they worked great, and they didn't hurt too bad but it was still hard to keep them on. Then I used the Premium ones, and the were unbearable. I couldn't keep them on my teeth for more than five minutes. It felt like some little tiny hammer was hitting my teeth or something! lol Anyway, I've been looking at GoSmile for a long time, but is it any different? I don't want to pay $120 for something that I can't use. I really want to whiten my teeth, but I can't stand all the pain that comes along with it. Does anyone have any suggestions, or maybe a different brand that would work for me?

IMO, I think crest whitestrips are janky. They don't work on my teeth. I like the Rembrant whiteners. The ones with the gunky whitener and the football player mouth guards/whitening trays. They seem to work the best. They will make your teeth sensitive if you leave them on too long.

Oops, sorry Aquilah. I didn't mean to re-post a topic. I will check out those links.

Luxotica~I tried Rembrandt, too and I couldn't use it. It hurt my teeth too much. Maybe I'll find something that will work!

My dentist told me that crest whitestrips are actually VERY bad for your teeth... they strip the pulp off your teeth... causing sensitivity.
