I am in my second week of wearing teeth whitening strips. I am not satisfied with the results. The box says to wear the strips 30 minutes but I wear them an hour for extra effect, but I am still not getting the results I want. Can I get better results if I wear them overnight? – Stephanie
Stephanie – You may get better results if you wear the teeth whitening strips overnight, but you may also experience sensitivity in your teeth and irritation to your gums. You should wear the strips for the amount of time indicated in the instructions.
If you want a truly white smile, ask your dentist about take-home teeth whitening. It is less expensive than in-office treatment, and your dentist may be able to make it affordable for you.
