i want to buy an over the counter whitening kit from a drug store, but i'm afraid that they will wear down my enamel. any advice? i saw an infomercial for ionic white and i was wondering if that works? i also hear crest white strips work good too. but does anyone know if they kill your enamel?
these are all great but, what will they do to my enamel? are they safe to use???
There's one I used called Celebrity Smile which I actually got basically for free from mycelebsmile.com/y/ and it worked really good! My teeth are tons whiter after using it and it doesn't hurt the enamel–it's actually the same strength stuff that dentists use in their office!
What is the best teeth whitening system that won't wear down the enamel?

One popular tooth whitening product that you can use is bleaching solution that contains peroxide for bleaching tooth enamel. The bleaching agent in these products is usually carbamide peroxide, which is available in 10, 16 and 22 percent concentrations.
Whiteners that contain peroxide typically come in gel form and are placed in a mouthguard. Some products are used twice a day for 2 weeks while others are intended for overnight use for a 1 to 2 weeks period. If you can obtain the bleaching solution from your dentist, he will be able to construct a custom mouth guard to fit your teeth precisely. Currently, the American Dental Association endorses only dentist-dispensed home-use percent carbamide peroxide tray-applied gels.
In addition to bleaching solution, whitening strips are increasingly being used as a preferred tooth whitening product. For instance, you are now able to get your hands on a set of Crest Whitestrips Supreme from any convenience store. The flexible, invisible strips are coated with an enamel-safe tooth bleaching gel. To whiten your teeth, you simply place the strips on your teeth and wear them for about 15 to 30 minutes each day. After a period of about 21 days, you should be able to see a significant difference on the brightness of your teeth.
