Q: Are these whitening strips enamel safe
Absolutely, a form of Hydrogen peroxide is the primary active ingredient in all effective whitening products. The same ingredient doctors recommend pouring directly on scrapes and cuts for safe and effective disinfection. The same bubbling action that disinfects also works to lift staining from your enamel. Yes, our strips use only enamel safe ingredients that allow you to have a carefree whitening experience with as much whitening power as a tray with the comfort of a strip

Water, polyethyloxazoline, urea peroxide, alcohol, PEG-35M, polyacrylic acid, sucralose, mentha piperita (peppermint) oil, potassium nitrate, potassium hydroxide.
Q: How long does a single whitening treatment last
Our strips begin working immediately upon placement and remain active and effective and release their whitening power over the next 1-2 hours.
Q: Do you recommend brushing your teeth before or after applying the whitening strips
Yes. Brushing your teeth prior to placement to remove any superficial stains and any layers of microscopic organic material is highly recommended to allow the whitening power to immediately penetrate the enamel surface.
Q: How frequently should these whitening strips be used
This depends on your diet and the desired results. For example, coffee, tea and wine are good examples of the types of food that stain teeth. The more one uses the strips the more whitening can be achieved. Two to five times a week, depending on each individual's comfort level, will help achieve a nice result.
Q: Are there are any product side effects
No, our Comfort Strips are safe and effective.
Q: What makes these whitening strips more effective than other products on the market
Good question. Our strips are more effective because of
1.) Our Proprietary blend of ingredients,
2.) Our patented Comfort technology and
3.) Our patented delivery system.
Q: Will using this product bother sensitive teeth
Like fingerprints, sensitivity is unique to each person and can depend on the individual and the health of your gums and teeth. Any sensitivity is rare and typically very mild and will disappear quickly when the user takes a few days off from whitening. Any continued sensitivity is a sign of deeper oral care issues that should be addressed by your professional dentist.
