| Q1. |
How does Crest Night Effects tooth whitening product work?
Crest Night Effects stays on overnight to whiten while you sleep. This is because the Crest Night Effects whitening kit works in two ways:
1) Immediately after you apply Crest Night Effects tooth whitening gel,
it forms a LiquidStrip™ coating that stays on your teeth overnight.
2) This coating slowly releases the whitening ingredient to whiten while you sleep. It works to remove stains and loosen stain causing buildup so when you wake up in the morning, you can simply brush the LiquidStrip and stains away.

Will Crest Night Effects affect my dental work?
Using the Crest Night Effects kit will only whiten natural teeth. It will not whiten any dental work such as caps, crowns, veneers, fillings or dentures. Consult with your dentist if you have dental work on the teeth to be treated. Crest Night Effects has not been observed to harm standard dental restorative materials. Do not use Crest Night Effects while wearing overnight dental appliances.

How long will my teeth be whiter using Crest Night Effects products? How can I keep them whiter?
Crest Night Effects will give you whiter teeth for at
least 6 months. If desired, you can use up to two kits in a row for increased
whitening benefit. In addition, we also recommend you use Crest Dual Action
Whitening toothpaste to gently polish away surface stains each day. |

| Q10. |
What about tooth sensitivity/gum discomfort?
Some people may experience tooth sensitivity or gum irritation
when using home tooth whitening products - this is temporary
and not harmful. If significant tooth sensitivity or
gum discomfort occurs, stop using Crest Night Effects products for two
to three days, then resume
whitening
regime. If problem persists, discontinue use of Crest
Night Effects.
