Before You Start
Some things to note: You can brush your teeth gently immediately after using Whitestrips, but we don't recommend brushing your teeth immediately before applying them. Doing so may irritate your gums. We also suggest waiting a few days after a professional teeth cleaning to use Crest 3DWhitestrips in case your teeth or gums are sensitive. It's a good idea to check with your dentist before you start using Crest 3DWhitestrips, too. Let's get started!
Peel
Getting started is simple. First, gently remove the backing of the teeth whitening strip with your fingers. There are two strips – one designed for the top teeth and one designed for the bottom teeth. Use the longer strip for your top teeth and the shorter strip for your bottom teeth. You'll have to do this step with each strip separately, but for now let's work with one.
Apply
The next step is to apply the strip to your teeth (either the top or bottom row, depending on which strip you chose in the first step). To use them, simply remove the backing and apply the grippy side to your teeth. When initially applying the strip, slide the strip so that it is centered on the front teeth as much as possible. Then, fold the strip over to the back side of your teeth to secure it in place. Remember, make sure to use the whitening strip only on the teeth it is designated for – each strip has been specially designed to conform to either the top or bottom teeth. Repeat the peel and apply steps for the second strip. Leave strips on your teeth for the length indicated on your strip sachet (either 30 or 60 minutes).
Boost
Crest 3DWhitestrips Whitening Kits include The Crest LED Accelerator Light, which puts the same technology that dentists use to professionally whiten teeth right in the palm of your hand. The LED teeth whitening light is safe to use as directed and helps the ingredients in Crest 3DWhitestrips work more effectively by safely penetrating the enamel surface to weaken tough, yellow stains. Unlike other light products that use a broad light spectrum, our specific blue light wavelength was designed to target and neutralize yellow stains. The device was also created to deliver full light intensity across all your teeth for 30% better whitening compared to strips alone.
You'll use The Crest LED Accelerator Light during the last 5 minutes of the teeth whitening treatment. To start the light treatment, simply press and hold the two buttons on the sides of the device simultaneously to turn on the light, then release. Place the light against the strips on your teeth for 5 minutes. The light will automatically turn off after 5 minutes.
Reveal
When your time is up (either 30 or 60 minutes), peel off your strips and dispose of them in the trash. You may have some whitening gel leftover on your teeth, so gently brush that with a toothbrush.
Now, it's time to reveal your smile! With Crest 3DWhitestrips, you'll get noticeably whiter teeth, 100% guaranteed. So, start smiling and showing off your teeth today.

The Crest Blue Light device is the same type of teeth whitening light technology used by dentists. The LED light safely penetrates the enamel surface to weaken tough, yellow stains so that the teeth whitening ingredients in Crest 3D Whitestrips can work more effectively.
It's generally safe to use an LED teeth whitener once every 24-48 hours, depending on the strength of the device and the sensitivity of your teeth. The MOON Teeth Whitening Device is designed to be gentle and is safe to use twice a day for 14 days at a time.
As for whether you should brush your teeth after using whitening strips, there is no definitive answer. While some experts recommend brushing immediately after removing the strips to ensure all residue is removed, others advise waiting for 30 minutes to allow the enamel to rehydrate and minimize potential abrasion.
Modern technology has actually made it possible to have a whiter and brighter smile quickly and easily. And, yes, the light does indeed play a role in the accelerated whitening process. However, simply smiling at an LED light will not whiten your teeth.
If you've left your teeth whitening gel on for too long and are worried that it might have caused damage to your teeth, try not to fret. You may notice some slight sensitivity of the teeth, white spots on the gum or white flecks on teeth, or numbness on the gumline.
Let's debunk a myth: the light by itself does not alter the color of teeth, as has been shown in many studies. That's why if you get whitening at your dentist, or purchase an at-home kit, there will always be a whitening agent, often a gel, that goes on your teeth before turning on the light.
Most people will see a noticeable difference after just one treatment, but for more severe cases, you may need up to four treatments. It's important to note that LED teeth whitening is not a permanent solution, so you'll likely need to repeat the treatment every few months to maintain your results.
While specifics can vary based on the Crest White Strips product you choose, a general guideline is to leave the strips on for 30 minutes to an hour per session. This timeframe strikes a balance between achieving optimal results and minimizing the risk of increased tooth sensitivity.
Brushing before applying Whitestrips can help remove surface stains and improve product adherence. Yet, it's equally essential to follow up with a gentle post-treatment brushing to eliminate residual gel and maintain oral hygiene. The ideal sequence can vary depending on personal preferences and product instructions.
An LED Accelerator Light is only needed for 3-minutes after the patient has worn the gel for 30-minutes. This material is safe enough to be used up to four times per day with virtually no sensitivity.
So to rectify the mistake, my partner and I tested two versions of Crest's wildly popular teeth whitening product, one with an LED light and one without. Spoiler alert: They both work extremely well.
