I've been using Smileactives for only a week and see a remarkable difference. I've had success with the Crest strips, but Smileactives takes less time and is easy to go on the go.

I've been using Smileactive teeth whitening pens forever and I love them and they work great!

My dentist showed me a new system this week. It's called Kor Whitening. Your dentist makes custom trays for you. Those are worn overnight with the Kor gel inside. The before and after pics looked amazing. It also is suppose to offer less irritation. I'm considering having this done.

How much is he selling it for?

Oil pulling is the safest & healthiest way to whiten teeth. Lots of health benefits, too. Google it & you'll find lots of info on it.

Thanks but I don't think I can swish for 20 minutes.

I haven't found one I liked. Crest Whitestrips gave me too much sensitivity. I have also tried Intelliwhite, Go Smile, Supersmile and Colgate Optic White toothpastes (I do use the Optic White now with a Sonic Care toothbrush). Those that don't cause sensitivity I don't see much result. I've been curious about the GLO device which combines light and heat, but don't know that I'd have the patience to use that. At least the smileactives pen looks easy to use and you would easily know within 30 days if it works or not.

I have very sensitive teeth and gum problems (just had a gum graft done yesterday).

I use a Phillips sonicare toothbrush. Before bed, floss then first brush is with Crest Sensitivity toothpaste, second brush is with Colgate Optic White toothpaste and last brush is with a prescription fluoride toothpaste from the dentist.

In the morning, I just use a manual toothbrush w/my sensitivity tooth paste.

Since I started w/the fluoride toothpaste, I haven't been using mouthwash. It needs to be swished around the mouth after finishing brushing.

My teeth aren't blinding white, but whiter than before. I do drink a lot of coffee and cola.

Just read up on this since I've never heard of it. Wow, sounds like a rather disgusting practice! Swish oil in your mouth for 20 minutes? And if you have a septic system you can't spit in into the sink? That speaks volumes.

I like and do not like the SmileActives. I like because it really works, is easy to use, no mess or waiting, or anything against your teeth other than a bit of gel.

I dislike because of the H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), which may destroy the natural mouth flora.

Hopefully, I am able to maintain a healthy balance. And another reason why something should not be taken to an extreme.

Where the hernia have I been? How did I miss this?

I'm intrigued.
