With 6 percent peroxide gel (among the lowest of Crest Whitestrip products), reviewers note that Crest Whitestrips Classic are better for users with sensitive teeth. However, the whitening process is also commensurately slower, requiring a two-week commitment to wearing the strips for 30 minutes twice a day. Once complete, however, the results can last up to six months. As with other Crest Whitestrips products, testers are displeased by the associated drooling and express that the strips are best worn at home.
Good Housekeeping editors highly recommend Crest Whitestrips Classic and say the product can lighten teeth up to three shades. Customer reviews posted on Amazon.com and Drugstore.com also give Crest Whitestrips Classic high praise for ease of use and overall effectiveness.
