In a world where everyone is simply trying to look their best, having dazzling white teeth is of the utmost importance. To help those on the path to pearly whitedom, there now exists numerous products that all claim to whiten and brighten your smile.

Listerine Whitening Quick Dissolving Strips are one of the newer products on the market. While past products have been messy, expensive, time-consuming, and leave a terrible taste in your mouth, Listerine has created what is virtually a breath strip for your teeth. There is no mess, they are affordable, it takes almost no time at all, and your breath is freshened while your teeth are whitened.

These strips seem to be of the same make as the quick-dissolving breath strips. Depending on which set of teeth you want whitened, you place the strip against your teeth, aligning the edge with your gumline, and press and fold over the excess behind your teeth. It really is as simple as that. The strip dissolves in a matter of minutes, leaving no mess and nothing to remove.

The quick-dissolving strips are designed to work on both upper and lower teeth. A small notch in the corner of the strip guides you when applying the strip to your teeth. Supposedly, results are seen in two weeks' time.

Listerine's strips use the same enamel-safe ingredient that dentists use, so they are not harmful or abrasive to the surface of your teeth. And what kind of Listerine product would it be if it did not kill bad breath germs? Get whiter teeth while killing bad breath!

While one is left with slight residue from the strip after it dissolves, these are easily the quickest, cleanest, and best tasting whitening products I have encountered. Listerine has made a quality product that is affordable and really works. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a brighter smile.
