Review: Crest White Strips: Day 2

So I bought a pack of Crest White Strips last week. I've been using them for two days now. Here are my impressions thus far.
  • Mr. Thirsty - You know how you go to the dentist and he's got that straw that sucks up all your saliva? Well, I wish I had one of those. Not that you can't close your mouth, but the saliva and your teeth together makes the strips slide around a bit and ends up feeling uncomfortable.
  • Slight pain - Last night, I decided to put two on in a row, which the instructions say you can. After I took off the second set, I began feeling sharp pains in my teeth.
  • Can't really talk - With these things on, you can't really talk. You talk with your mouth slightly ajar.

Other than that, the strips work pretty well. After only two days of use, I can already see an improvement. It's not significant, but if you knew I was using the strips, you would notice the difference.
