Anyone have any experiences with these things? I've never used one. But I'm going to try. I'll keep you updated.

supposedly they whiten your teeth by stripping off the yellowed enamel of the tooth... I'd rather have yellow enamel than no enamel!

^Thats the rumor, anyway...Ive never looked too much into it to know for sure.

Ive tried the strips a few times...they definately work, however, if you have sensitive teeth, they can really really hurt sometimes. There was once when I actually yelled from the sudden sharp pain and ripped the things from my mouth. Even after they were gone my teeth felt like they were getting burned with a hot iron.

Ive also tried the brush on paste crap...doenst do squat and is a pain in the ass.

i got the oral b triumph 9400 deluxe tooth brush. it works wonders. they run about 140 at stores but you can get it on ebay for 75 shipped. i would never go back to the regular toothbrushes again.

My teeth are pretty white as it is but I have tried the Crest Whitening Strips Premium and they work better than I even expected. I actually recently purchased a bundle that consists of 2 supplies of Crest Whitestrips premium ( 30 minutes each, twice a day for seven days) and it came with two tubes of Crest Vivid White toothpase...$40.00 and I love it!!! Costco. :)

PAT: You've tried this shit.. I have a question for you. Did the strips stay on your teeth easily? Like, could you speak normally and carry on a conversation without having your strip slide? My brother and the rest of my family don't have this problem but when I have mine in, I have to like, sit still for 30 minutes. I feel weird.

Yeah, LYNA in no way does the strip really stay put for me either. I was constantly having to adjust it with my tongue...
I tried talking, but it was like talking with a big wad of gum (mouth was all spitty)

i bought some of that brush on stuff, but didnt make it past 3 or 4 days of use. they looked whiter, but im kinda lazy and stopped. every now and then i'll do one application with the intention on starting again but my teeth are kinda white and in good enough shape where it dosnt really bother me. still have 3 bottles of the stuff.

Well so far, not so good. I forgot I bought the shit. And haven't used it for 3 days. So I might have to start all over again
