pinCons

Q&A
1.
Q: How often should I use Crest 3D Whitestrips for maintenance?
A: For maintenance after initial treatment, most dentists recommend using whitening strips 1-2 times monthly. However, frequency depends on your diet and natural tooth coloration. Overuse can increase sensitivity, so it's best to consult your dentist for personalized advice based on your oral health.
2.
Q: Can I drink water while wearing the whitening strips?
A: It's recommended to avoid all liquids during the 30-60 minute treatment period. Drinking water could dilute the whitening gel's effectiveness. For best results, apply strips to clean, dry teeth and refrain from eating, drinking, or smoking until after removing them and rinsing your mouth.
3.
Q: Are there any age restrictions for using these whitening strips?
A: Crest recommends these products for users aged 18+. Teenagers should consult a dentist first, as developing teeth may react differently to whitening agents. The strips aren't designed for primary (baby) teeth and shouldn't be used by children without professional supervision.
4.
Q: How should I store unused whitening strips?
A: Store unopened packages in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, keep strips in their original sealed pouch with the desiccant packet to prevent moisture exposure. Avoid extreme temperatures that could degrade the whitening gel's potency before use.
5.
Q: What's the difference between professional and store-bought whitening strips?
A: While both use similar whitening agents, professional-grade strips (available through dentists) typically contain higher peroxide concentrations for faster results. Store-bought versions like Crest 3D Whitestrips use safer, lower concentrations suitable for unsupervised home use, with more gradual whitening over several applications.
