Hi all, I have a stain on one of my front teeth - from years of drinking coffee and coke. It just won't go. The thing is, the tooth is chipped at the bottom just slightly - would using these whitestripes damage my tooth further?

Anyone perservered with these whitestrips yet and seen lots of improvement?

I've bought myself some Sensodyne Pro-namel toothpaste ready for when I finally order some of these whitestrips...getting myself prepared but waiting for good news from you all before I buy some!

I have some and I'm on my second day. I must admit I don't see much of an improvement yet but I will reserve judgement until I've finished the 10 day course.

I will say I'm not having any problems with sensitivity as I know some people have

Hi firefliesuk

Glad you're not having problems with the sensitivity and would be interested to see what difference you think the whitestrips have made after you complete the course.

Please keep us posted ...looking forward to a sparkling white future for you....something like this..... lol

I'll definitely post back at the end of the 10 days. I'm really hoping there will be an improvement because I had been lookinginto expensive teeth whitening at the dentist.

Hi Taboo

You must have been using these whitestrips a fair while now, how you getting on....any big difference..impressed?

I used these, done the full week with the Premium Strips. My teeth were a lot whiter, but it's now only a month and a half since I finished and they look nowhere near as white as they did. It's disappointing - I am very good with oral hygiene, I floss, brush and do mouthwash twice a day so I know it's not my laziness.

I had a couple of days break because my gums started to sting. Now the novelty has worn off slightly,I havent been as strict using them twice a day,so its once if I remember. I do notice a slight difference I suppose,but not enough to make me want to go and buy another pack.

Ok, thanks. I know what you mean about the novelty factor, I fear if I buy them and don't see an amazing improvement after a couple of days I will start to lose interest especially if there's a lot of faffing around!

Well I have just this minute taken my last strip off and I am very happy with the results. My teeth are a lot whiter, I saw my mum yesterday and I have had to order her some of these as she has noticed how much of a difference they have made. My teeth are usually an off white colour, not yellow but not bright white, and these have definitely brightened them up. The only downside is that my teeth have been so sensitive and I actually thought about stopping half way, but I have forced myself to put up with it and I am glad I did. I will certainly be using these again.

Does anyone have any more advice about these? I'm considering a purchase off of Ebay.

I've been using the strongest ones (Supreme) for a few weeks now, and have noticed a significant difference. I love my red wine and black coffee so despite using whitening toothpastes my teeth weren't as white as I'd have liked. Now they are. People have noticed and complimented me.

I bought 42 from an American seller on ebay (worked out cheaper even with the postage) and used them every night for a week. I'm down to once every three or four days now. Beware though, when you use them the first time you may experience sensitivity. I certainly did! And don't brush first. Heightens sensitivity, apparently.

To all thinking about trying them-go for it. They're well worth it.

If you have old tooth trays put some toothpaste for sensitive teeth in them and wear for about 20 minutes. That's what my dentist recommended to me.
