Is Crest Whitestrips safe?Ĭrest 3D Glamorous Whitestrips is approved by the American Dental Association, and are considered safe when used occasionally and in moderation. This can cause teeth sensitivity, an extremely common side effect of teeth whitening. Sodium HydroxideĪccording to the EWG (Environmental Working Group), sodium hydroxide is considered a toxic chemical because of its corrosive qualities. However, overuse of these products can irritate the gums and damage enamel. The PVP ( polyvinylpyrrolidone) and carbomer used in Crest Whitestrips (for sticking to the teeth) are generally fairly safe and non-toxic. The issue with Whitestrips is that the whitening gel isn’t adequately sealed away from the gum tissue the way a custom whitening tray does. These ingredients are generally safe as long as the peroxide doesn’t contact the sensitive gum tissue. Hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide are commonly used to whiten teeth. For detailed safety information, check out (Environmental Working Group).

Some of these ingredients are toxic to the body and should be limited in use.
