When I asked my dentist about having my teeth whitened he actually suggested just using whitening strips.
they work ok but I have found something that works better for me.
Crest 3d white brilliance- a 2 step toothpaste.. step one cleans your teeth, and step 2 is a whitening finisher.
You can use it twice a day, but I find if I use it after I have my morning coffee (which is why I have stained teeth) then once is enough.
I am pretty happy with the results.

I was just in for a cleaning and asked about whitening. My dentist suggested Crest 3D toothpaste and use the white strips for the first 3-4 days after cleaning to really jump start the process. Then use the strips once a week or as needed. My teeth are a bit sensitive to it but not terribly. Worth the pain! I also tried to switch from red to white wine! Coffee is a given! Good luck

I've used strips in the past they worked okay, what has worked the best for me is activated charcoal whitening powder. I have a separate toothbrush just for that. I also do a hydrogen peroxide rinse after brushing with the charcoal then I do my normal routine with my normal toothpaste. I do use crest products in my normal routine. The charcoal is messy but worth it it works and doesn't make my gums sensitive.
Oh and I drink coffee, tea, etc daily, red wine a couple days per week. I've had many compliments on my smile. Maybe I should post a photo of my teeth, I will try to get one without showing the rest of my face.

Teeth whitening strips irritated my gums and honestly weren’t that effective in whitening. The most effective whitening I’ve ever had i stumbled across by mistake and is not even made/marketed specifically to whiten. It’s called Uncle Harry’s All Natural Tooth Powder.

I used some professional whitening from a dentists office that was amazing and got me hooked on whitening. They made molds of my teeth so it worked very well.
after using strips of all kinds I started using a REALLY cheap $5 tube of whitening gel from walmart. I think it's called Plus White 5 minute whitening, it's my favorite now. I just glob it on my teeth and try to hold a smile pose for as long as I can while I shower and usually wait at least 10 mins before rinsing it off. I use it maybe once or twice a week and it really makes a difference. I don't see a bigger change with the strips at all and those would leave painful burnt spots on my gums.

Well, the teeth whitening strips are a good thing. However, it depends on a lot of factors. If your teeth are not that healthy, you should not use them. My sister had some terrible issues with her teeth, and when she used those strips, her teeth got very, very, very sensitive. She could not eat or drink anything hot or cold. Moreover, because of those strips, we had to make a homemade tooth filling that will last a while because the strips caused a cavity. The filling worked well until we visited the dentist.
