So as I am sitting here trying to decide what to blog about, I am whitening my teeth. I just bought the Listerine Whitening Quick Dissolving Strips today for like $24 at Wal-mart and decided to try them out. I have used the Crest Whitening Strips and didn’t really care for pulling those things off my teeth. What did you guys think of the Crest strips? But after trying these, I am pretty much in love with the Crest strips.
First off the Listerine strips taste disgusting. They just have a really bad taste that is hard to deal with for the 5-10 minutes they are to be on before they supposedly completely dissolve. However, I had mine on for about 10 minutes and they definitely were not completely dissolved. I couldn’t deal with it any more so I had to scrape them off my teeth. The strips remind me of the Listerine breath strips. They are made of a similar material and then when it “dissolves” on your teeth, it gets down between your teeth. I had to brush my teeth afterwards, yet I feel like they are still on my teeth and it didn’t get rid of the nasty taste, either. I’m about to go floss, too.
Have any of you tried them yet? What did you think? What I thought was going to be a good product ended up being a waste of my money. I am definitely not looking forward to using the other 54 strips, but they aren’t going to go to waste.

I never tried whitening strips before. As a guy i feel as long as there's no food stuck in between my teeth and my breath doesnt smell rancid. I feel fairly comfortable. I always carry listerine pocket strips just to keep me breathing minty fresh. I don't chew gum because I get too tempted to eat it. Idk if i could live with whitening strips stuck to my teeth all day and not even feel accomplished after brushing. I think I'm just gonna stick with the extra whitening in the toothpaste and the mints.
I've never tried any kind of whitening strips. I was interested in getting the Crest ones, but do they really work?
