I'm almost 9 weeks pregnant & I bought a pack of the Crest Whitening strips today, I read the labels beforehand and nothing said it was unsafe to use while pregnant. I know I should call my doctor, but I was wondering if anyone else knew the answer after having called their doctor? I'm getting married in two weeks & just want to brighten up my teeth a bit. thanks!<3

This is pretty "iffy" territory. Not enough research has been done on the matter so most people err on the side of caution and just skip it during pregnancy. It's really your choice though, nothing has been proven that it causes any harm. I will let you know though that your gums get a lot more sensitive during pregnancy so if you choose to whiten, that might cause some issues. I can tell you if it was getting married and wanted to whiten my teeth I would probably just go ahead and do it though since it hasn't been shown to be harmful and it's not like you swallow tons of that gunk anyhow! :]
