Visit your dentist before you use it. If you have any gum desease or cavities, they can actually cause severe harm, especially if you have gum desease.

It's actually not that harmfull. If you don't have that much to whiten to begin with, it's a cheaper way to get your teeth a bit whiter. It's just like anything else, don't over do it. Follow the directions, and then leave your teeth alone. If you want better results, then you should go to a dentist.

I heard crest white strips could weaken teeth? Is this true? Is there anyway i can whiten my teeth affectively without weakening them and without have surgury?

Teeth loose their whiteness due to age,cavities and eatingfood like coffee,tea,cola which stain the teeth.Tobacoo andsome antibiotics also cause stains.Commercial tooth whiteners use hydrogenperoxide and are expensive and inconvenient.A cheap and natural tooth whitening homeremedy uses few strawberries but certainprecautions have to be taken....its not true.i asked my dentist and he says its no problem. they work

Are crest whitening strips supposed to have gunk on them when you take them off?

yes. it happens all the time since its a remainder of the bleach.Just: 1brush it off or2wipe it off....Yes its normal, but dont leave them on your teeth for longer than 30 minutes. You can hurt your gums and possibly cause discomfort by losing some skin on them.
