Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I have teeth sensitive to whitening. Can using Whitestrips make it worse?
A: Some people may temporarily experience a small amount of tooth sensitivity when using whitening products, which is completely normal, but know that Crest 3D White Whitestrips are enamel-safe.
Q: How are whitening treatments different than whitening toothpastes? Do I really have to bother with two forms of whitening?
A: Tooth stains can fall in two general categories: extrinsic stains and intrinsic stains. Extrinsic stains are stains at the tooth's surface. Intrinsic stains are stains beneath the tooth's surface. Although whitening toothpastes are a great way to remove stains on a daily basis, most only work on the surface to provide an extrinsic benefit to your smile.
Whitestrips, on the other hand, work both on surface stains as well as beneath the surface of the tooth. Going beyond where most whitening toothpastes leave off, Whitestrips whiten beneath the tooth surface for an overall whiter smile.
Q: How do Crest 3D White Whitestrips work?
A: Here comes the technical jargon: Crest 3D White Whitestrips are thin, flexible strips that are coated with a tooth whitening gel. Designed to conform to the shape of your teeth, they work by keeping the teeth whitening gel in place against your teeth to remove stains below the tooth surface. Whitestrips use the same, effective whitening ingredient dentists use. They deliver the whitening you need where you need it for a brighter, whiter smile!
Q: Why should I use Crest 3D White Whitestrips? Why isn't a whitening toothpaste enough?
A: Because you shouldn't settle for a smile that's just "white enough." Every Crest 3D White Whitestrips teeth whitening system guarantees a whiter smile or your money back. See package for details. While Whitestrips and most whitening toothpastes remove surface-level stains, Crest Whitestrips remove set-in stains below the tooth surface for a visibly whiter smile.
The real question is why wouldn't you use Whitestrips?
Q: Once I get a whiter smile, what is the best way to protect my new look?
A: Once you've achieved the whitening results you want, maintain your whiter smile. Crest 3D White Monthly Whitening Boost Whitestrips are a quick, simple way to maintain your whiter smile.
Another way to maintain your whiter smile is to use the collection of Crest 3D White products, which include toothbrushes, toothpastes and rinses. When used daily, the collection of Crest 3D White products will keep your smile whiter and brighter.
