    I was excited to try the Crest 3D White Whitestrips 2-hour Express.
    It was easy to apply. The result wasn't exactly as much as I was expecting, you might want to look at other options before purchasing this one.
    It was just uncomfortable feeling to wear them for 2 hours and the taste of the gel was very unpleasant. I could not wait to take them off.
    My teeth & gums were sensitive afterwards.
    I was disappointed to see almost no improvement. My teeth looked almost the same. I even ask my husband if he noticed anything, and unfortunately he did not notice anything.
    I would not buy or recommend this product.
    But I am happy I could try it. Thank you for giving me this opportunity!

    I tried these strips thanks so the review club. Unfortunately I was left really upset.
    First off I found that wearing the strips for 2 hours straight was a long time. I got really slobbery and it was more irritating than anything.
    Second after I pulled the strips off globs of the gel continued to stick to my teeth. It felt really gross.
    Throughout the night I could barely sleep as my gums and teeth were throbbing. I continued to have bad sensitivity for 2 days after.

    I have used strips before as well as the Crest 3D toothpaste and I think these strips would be great if only they didn't need to be on so long. Maybe an hour and then the gross drool and sensitivity could have been avoided.

    When I saw Crest 3D White Professional Effect white strips advertised on TV, I was very interested in them! When I was given the opportunity to try them I jumped at the chance! Unfortunately, the effects are far from what they advertise. In fact, they’re not effective at all, and I am glad I didn’t have to waste any money on them.

    After 2 hours of wearing the strips, my teeth did not look any whiter whatsoever. My before and after photographs—taken in the same lighting with the exact same settings—show no change at all. Looking at my teeth, I notice no change. How disappointing.

    The first 20 minutes of wearing them were pure agony. My teeth ached, my gums burned... it was awful! After 20 minutes, the pain and burning stopped and the 1 hour and 40 minutes I wore them after that were without problems.

    For the first 2 days after having the strips on, I would get random gnawing shooting pain in several of my teeth—lower middle, and upper left. These teeth had never been sensitive at all before, and I hope they never are again! The ache was terrible, I would get the most sudden, deep, almost sharp throbbing pain.

    For the first 2 weeks after, when I would eat hot, cold, or even lukewarm food the tops of my lower teeth and the bottom of my top teeth BURNED. I kid you not, they burned! Even with ice cold water! I could not chew very well, as the very pressure on my teeth hurt.

    The week long pain would have been worth it... if the white strips had worked. Because they didn’t work, it was just an agonizing experience I could have done without.

    The one thing I really liked about the product was how well they clung to my teeth, but if they don’t whiten... who cares how well they cling to my teeth? I sure don’t.

    If the product had worked the cost is actually really good: You get 4 strips in the box, and you use 1 every 3 months. So for $59.00—the cheapest it sells for here—you get a year’s supply. It works out to $15 for every 3 month whitening session. But again, it doesn’t work, so don’t waste your money. Spend $3 on a whitening toothpaste, you might actually get whiter teeth with them... and if you don’t, you’re only out $3!

    I receieved the Crest 3D White Whitestripes as part of a Chick Advisor review and was really looking forward to brightening my smile. I've always wanted to try a teeth whitening product, but the high cost has always put me off, and unfortunately will probably continue to in the future. Needless to say, I was not impressed.

    The process - I made sure to follow the instructions to the letter, the only problem is that the strips didn't fit me at all. I found the strips were WAY too big for my teeth and hung over my gums, making it seem as if I was wearing a mouth-guard. It's nearly impossible to keep them clear of saliva so I could taste the bleaching product the entire time, I wore these for about 30 minutes until I couldn't take it anymore. I didn't notice sensitivity that short a time period but the irritation of saliva getting stuck between my teeth was too extreme.

    The results - As I only had them on for 30 minutes, I noticed no recognizable results. I am not a smoker though and my teeth are only slightly discoloured, so this may not have helped me regardless.

    The verdict - I would probably refer to a dentist before trying a teeth cleaning product like this in the future, it seems that I could be doing more harm than good as the chemicals are so freely flowing around my mouth.

    I received the Crest3D 2 Hour Express Strips a few weeks ago from the wonderful peeps at ChickAdvisor to try out and review. I was a little wary because I've had some issues with sensitivity in the past, so I decided to hold onto my trial package for a couple weeks while I diligently brushed my teeth with sensitivity toothpaste hoping to eliminate any issues that might arise.

    I finally decided to try these out on a boring Saturday afternoon......but also decided that I was only going to use one strip on my upper teeth to start out........I'd rather have half my teeth be extremely sensitive, than all of them!! Anyway, the instructions were fairly simple. The package comes with 4 small foil inserts, each with a top and bottom strip that can be applied once every 3 months.......therefore, each box has a full year supply. I applied the upper strip and watched some tv and had a shower to pass the time. 2 hours wasn't exactly horrible.....but it wasn't great either. You can definitely feel the strip in your mouth the whole time and sometimes some of the goop would get out, which tasted horrible. I can't really say that I had many issues while wearing the strips.......my teeth didn't seem to bother me at all.

    The results however, were less than awesome. I have mildly yellow teeth.......though I'm a diligent brusher and flosser and don't smoke or drink coffee or wine..........my dentist said some people just have more yellowish teeth....unfortunately. Anyway, because of my current teeth hue, I was super excited to try these and hoping for some good results, as whitening treatments at the dentist office can be very costly. 2 hours on the dot, I pulled off my stripes and eagerly looked in the mirror........and what I saw in my reflection was the EXACT same smile I had before the strips. I even brushed my teeth to get all the leftover gunk off........but still couldn't notice any difference at all. Bummer :(

    My teeth didn't seem to be bothering me, which made me quite happy.......however, after a nap and dinner I started to feel a dull ache in all of my front teeth. It slowly intensified until drinking anything other than luke warm tap water became an issue. I really noticed how sensitive they'd become when I was outside and the aching increased everytime I opened my mouth and the cool fall air hit my teeth. I've taken a couple advil since then and am crossing my fingers that the sensitivity doesn't get any worse.

    Overall, I found this to be a not awesome product. I didn't have to pay for it, but if I did, I'd have been extremely disappointed. The price is fairly high, and after looking at my teeth over and over, I still can't see ANY changes at all........except, of course, for the throbbing pain and sensitivity. Though I very much appreciated being able to try these, I definitely will not be purchasing these in the future.....unless I have a craving for a $60 toothache :S

    First off I would like to thank Chick Advisors for choosing me to test the Crest 3D White Whitestrips.

    My overall experience was okay...I guess I was expecting miracles from these strips...but they did a below average job...I guess if your teeth are slightly discoloured they would work perfectly for you...my teeth needed a little more help...now maybe if I keep using the product I would see way better results...I've only been using them for 7 days...and see minimal results...

    Compared to other products its not bad...it takes a little getting used to having them in my mouth...they feel quite odd...I would rather have a product that goes on and comes off more quickly...time is of the essence...as a mom of 3 time is very precious...

    I probably wouldn't buy this in the future...the cost is expensive and the results aren't as great as I wished...I would only recommend it to a friend who's teeth need a little help...

    I was chosen to try the crest 3d white whitestrips 2 hour express. When I got chosen I was really excited because I have never tried any teeth whitening products before. But I became dissappointed after trying this product. My teeth became a bit whiter but not as much as I hoped or assumed they would. I left them on for the 2 hours, but close to the end my teeth were starting to hurt. And it was quite a few hours later before I could take a cold drink or eat. But the pain and sensitivity did eventually go away. I unfortunately though don't think that I would recommend this product.

    I was excited to try these new strips and was hoping for better results than the other products currently on the market give you. However, I was pretty disappointed over all.

    The strips were very easy to apply and stayed in place the entire two hours which was great. I was able to go about my morning and carry on normal conversations without sounding like I have something in my mouth or having the strips move around.

    When the two hours was up I was anxious to see the results. Well, the whitening was pretty minimal. I've had much better results with the more affordable (and admittedly less convenient daily strips).

    Twelve hours later the tooth sensitively that began as just a slight tingling is only getting worse (and I don't have sensitive teeth).

    Bottom line, for me, I wouldn't spend the money to buy this product. For better results and without the tooth aches, I would spend the time and effort in using the daily strips for a week or two.

    I was super excited to be selected to try the Crest 2 hour whitestrips. I had been seeing a lot of commercials for this and was curious how well they would work. I had previously tried the 20 minute type of whitestrips before that did not really do anything and figured the 2 hour version must be more potent... well, it's not!

    The good news is that there's no irritation and you get the usual increaed saliva production once you put them in. They're easy to apply and easily cover my teeth.

    The downside is that the 2 hours takes forever to go by and I was super thirsty by the time my timer beeped. The other obvious downside is that I did not see a difference at all in my tooth color. I was hoping for a bit of a brigthening/whitening, but it really didn't do anything for me. I don't plan to purchase this once I'm done this trial.

    This is only the second time that I have ever tried using a White Strip product. My teeth are very slightly discolored, so I had really high expectations that this product would be exactly what I needed.

    The instructions are very simple and easy to understand. I had no trouble there whatsoever.

    Applying the strips wasn't bad - a little sticky, but nothing to complain about.

    After having them on for about 10 minutes, they really started to bother me. It didn't hurt my gums or anything, it was just really uncomfortable feeling saliva underneath the strips and the taste of the gel was very unpleasant. The bottom strips actually started to lift on one side after about 45 minutes. I was almost counting down the minutes until I could take them off.

    At the 2 hour mark, I took them off and was extremely disappointed. I could not see a difference at all in my teeth. Perhaps my teeth are not discolored enough to notice a difference? I'm not sure, but to me, they looked exactly the same.

    For the price of this product, I would definitely not buy it nor would I recommend it.
