OK who in this bitch has used these things? A) I put it on the other night and fell asleep and I think I ate them, am I going to die? B) Why are they so annoying? C) Is it advisable to smoke while you are wearing them?

I bought them on bored whim the other day and now I'm compelled to make my teeth frightening and scary and WHITE but I am not sold on this technology at all. So this is thhe thread where I'm going to update you all lots! I think I'm on day 2.5.

FWIW it did actually already visibly lighten a stain where my bottom teeth are badly crooked and the nicotene apparently gets caught when I smoke, so I was impressed with this but ugh the stickiness.

Allyzay, Friday, 13 February 2004 02:14 (twenty-two years ago)

I need something like this desperately but it turns out bad teeth are pretty hip over here!

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 13 February 2004 02:23 (twenty-two years ago)

i'm afraid to try it. what if it eats away my precious enamel¿

dyson (dyson), Friday, 13 February 2004 02:32 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm going to get my teeth bleached, methinks.

dean! (deangulberry), Friday, 13 February 2004 02:35 (twenty-two years ago)

i went to the dentist and got the real deal. it's about $300 but you can use it forever and it works overnite.

Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 13 February 2004 02:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Really? What about the parts for it? Like the gel and stuff? I don't like to go to the dentist :(

Allyzay, Friday, 13 February 2004 03:13 (twenty-two years ago)

My wife has been bugging me to do this shit. What the fuck.

I bought a box right around Christmas time and haven't opened it up yet. Don't you need 30 mins in the morning and 30 again at night? The AM is kind of a bad time unless I want to wake up super early or wear the thing on the bus. It also came with a free disposable camera I'll never use!

svend (svend), Friday, 13 February 2004 04:04 (twenty-two years ago)

he makes a mold of your teeth and gives you the industrial strength bleach to put in the molds that fit over yrn teeth overnite and viola--instant white!

Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 13 February 2004 04:07 (twenty-two years ago)

I dont get the obsession with ultra-white teeth. S'a very american thing innit?

Trayce (trayce), Friday, 13 February 2004 05:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I've totally used those bitches, and they worked really well for me. My dentist said they are actually good for your teeth, which I was surprised to hear. Duh, Traycee, it's totally American. Brits don't care about their teeth, am I right people?

I've seen many a report that states that the only OTC whitening system that actually seems to work is the Whitestrips thing. I'm actually kinda tempted to give them a go, because my teeth have gotten to the point where even if I brush them with baking soda they still look a bit yellowish. So I will be definitely checking up on your experiences. Hope they work well for you!

haha "Is it advisable to smoke while you are wearing them?"

THAT'S OUR ALLY!

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 13 February 2004 13:37 (twenty-two years ago)

bad teeth are pretty hip over here!

Oh yeah? I had the worst fag-stained teeth EVAH. I hadn't been to a dentist in three years out of fear: I had practically black lower teeth, like someone from a fuckind Dickens novel. Anyhoo, all they did was sandblast the mothers. And it took exactly the length of 'In My Place' and 'Slow'. It wasn't a barrel of laughs, but it feels a fuc load better. No need for bleaching.

I gave up abt a month later, but that's another story.

ENRQ (Enrique), Friday, 13 February 2004 13:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Does it involve fucking Dickens?

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 13 February 2004 13:49 (twenty-two years ago)

three years pass...

starting day 1.

anybody used these before??

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 04:42 (eighteen years ago)

I heard that if you still smoke more than occasionally after using these strips, your teeth will return to their pre-whitestrips stain-color pretty fast. That seems plausible.

ctrl-s, Thursday, 10 January 2008 04:55 (eighteen years ago)

i dont smoke

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 04:58 (eighteen years ago)

I put them on when I go to sleep and leave them on all night and wake up with scarily white teeth and don't use another one again for months.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:01 (eighteen years ago)

really?????

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:02 (eighteen years ago)

roxymuzak: Do you smoke? I was thinking I'd wait until after I've quit smoking altogether before doing this.

ctrl-s, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:03 (eighteen years ago)

I quit smoking in August. Yeah, really!

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:04 (eighteen years ago)

Some nerd is probably gonna come on here all "Erm, this is like really hurting your ENAMEL!!", but this person can also probably suck a mile of my dick.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:04 (eighteen years ago)

does your mouth not feel bleargh when you wake up? all slimy and gross etc

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:05 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah, is your mouth real nice and clean when you wake up?

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:06 (eighteen years ago)

true

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:06 (eighteen years ago)

sonned

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:06 (eighteen years ago)

When all y'all's teeth all fall out at 40 I will be first in line to point and laugh.

libcrypt, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:06 (eighteen years ago)

Dude, I'm from Blount County. See you at 30.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:07 (eighteen years ago)

livin' it up while i'm goin down, over here

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:08 (eighteen years ago)

lol does this shit really fuck your teeth up?

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:13 (eighteen years ago)

i couldn't be 'arsed' to read the whitening strips tongue cancer thread from a few years ago.

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:14 (eighteen years ago)

It's basically bleaching yr teeth. What happens to clothes you use too much bleach on?

libcrypt, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:14 (eighteen years ago)

Yes, it is exactly the same.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:15 (eighteen years ago)

lolibcrypt

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:16 (eighteen years ago)

This is where true tooth whiteners come in. Basically, the whiteners use bleaching chemicals to get down into the tooth enamel and set off a chemical reaction (specifically, an oxidation reaction) that breaks apart the staining compounds.

Most tooth whiteners use one of two chemical agents: carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide (the same stuff that will bleach your hair). When used in the mouth, carbamide peroxide breaks down into hydrogen peroxide and urea, with hydrogen peroxide being the active whitening ingredient.

libcrypt, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:17 (eighteen years ago)

My wife bought a few "pro" treatments but didn't use them all because of the associated discomfort.

libcrypt, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:19 (eighteen years ago)

i need this shit

gershy, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:19 (eighteen years ago)

yeah i have the $50 crest full experience sitting in a drawer right now and i need to use it too

jergïns, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:20 (eighteen years ago)

Well, people with sensitive teeth need to get their ass outta the kitchen on this shit. It's real.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:21 (eighteen years ago)

I kinda like British-style teeth, to be honest.

libcrypt, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:22 (eighteen years ago)

Yet you are against tooth rot?!

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:22 (eighteen years ago)

I'm not against tooth rot. I'm just against American smiles that can focus the sun and burn a hole in peoples' shirts.

libcrypt, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:23 (eighteen years ago)

If you are going to get a shiny tooth thing, get a Mexi-mouth, I think.

libcrypt, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:24 (eighteen years ago)

Oh, that kinda shit probably comes from professional shit. I said mine get scarily white, but that's an exag. I abuse coffee 4 real and my teeth would be brown as hell if I didn't use these.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:25 (eighteen years ago)

Meaning extra white teeth, not mexi-mouth!

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:25 (eighteen years ago)

um how could you not like white teeth? wtf. damn britishes.

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:26 (eighteen years ago)

bad teeth = #1 most unattractive quality about a person

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:27 (eighteen years ago)

Thank god. I am so tired of people being like "Aw, I love shitty teeth! So cute." Yeah, well they fucking hurt and cause tons of problems.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:28 (eighteen years ago)

i can't disassociate bad teeth from bad breath and bad tasting mouth so i mean that's a turn off w/o a doubt

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:30 (eighteen years ago)

Well now you sound obsessed.

roxymuzak, Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:30 (eighteen years ago)

not ashamed

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 January 2008 05:33 (eighteen years ago)

two years pass...

whoa, weird! I just sat down with a box of dissolvable Listerine whitening strips and then saw you bumped this thread! The box had been sitting in a box for months, and I decided to bust it out for some reason just now. I'm not optimistic about my chances, though, because I have two cups of coffee a day. The last few times I tried whitening strips they didn't really do anything noticeable.
