Can anyone recommend a good product? I'm thinking I'd like to buy the strips- but there are so many different brands! I don't want to spend more than I have to, but of course I want to see results, too. I don't have terribly discolored teeth or anything, just want to whiten them up a little bit :flowerforyou:

    I use Crest Whitestrips... they are awesome. Be careful if you have sensitive teeth. They recommend 7 days but I use 14 days to spread it out and not cause sensitivity.

    My teeth are sensitive also! If I use them two days in a row I'm hurtin. Definitely spread it out.

    I really like the Rembrandt one better..its a two hour thing if I remember correctly, but I spread it out over a weeks time due to sensitivity. You mold the things to your teeth and then put gel in them. IMO they worked MUCH better than the strips have.

    OMG!:glasses: Some of you have blinding white teeth, they're beautiful:heart: , those of you that have your teeth showing in your photo:wink:

    My dentist filled me with fear at using shelf product whiteners, of course they wanted me to get them whitened there for $300 plus!

    I don't know how much truth there is to it but they talked about how some brands (off the shelf type) can remove the enamal from your teeth. Sounds like so many of you have had good luck with a number of brands though. Mine aren't terribly discolored or anything but I do love the idea of really white teeth.

    Ok, so not quite like that old Friends episode if anyone remembers it when Ross whitened his teeth and left it on too long, so long in fact they were glowing in the dark on a first date. :tongue:

    oops edit for fast typing = mispelled words:blushing:
