ur not suppose to use more then 2 boxes a year. I use two a year and the result is great:D did u know that ur teeth are healthier when they r yellow? So this means ur teeth are really really white(whichis good) but they r now as strong anymore, the sensitivity will go away but not that fast. you should buy toothpaste for sensetive teeth. my teeth got sensetive to ice cream and candy after using the whitening strips. Start using them in a year again. But yeah the sensitivity is gonna last:( unless u buy the toothpaste for sensetive teeth. hope this helps:)

You need to take a break from them for a while. The sensitivity will go away, until that time you can buy a desensitizing toothpaste like Sensodyne.
In the future, don’t buy the Crest Whitestrips…..they’re way too expensive. Here’s something that will save you a TON of money.
Buy a pair of mouth guards in the sporting goods section at Walmart for $1apiece. Pick your size, but I find that the child’s one is perfect.
Read the instructions for heating it and biting it to make exact impressions of your teeth. Do it for for both trays, upper and bottom.
Buy a tube of “Plus White 5 Minute Whitening Gel”, also at Walmart. Apply it to the front of your teeth, wiping off the excess from your lips and gums. Put the trays on and leave it there for 5-10 minutes or 15-20 if they’re really stained.
After, take out the trays and rinse your mouth with warm water and then brush afterward.
For first timers, do this twice a day for two weeks, then once every two weeks. For people who just want to maintain, once every two weeks is fine.
Good luck and have fun with the ton of money you’ll save!!
