No. They state on the custom declaration form 'dental sample', and that seems to do the trick!:rotfl:

It's usually about 10 - 14 days, but if you're at all worried , email their customer service and you will get a speedy response. (Well, I did anyway:D )

My daughters was ordered on Friday 27th Oct at about 5:30pm and the parcel arrived on Thursdsay 2nd Nov in the morning with the postman. This wasn't in a parcel that should be signed for and the postman left it on my doorstep so just be aware of that. Luckily I was in and found the parcel before anyone else did. Its a little bit concerning given the contents that its not to be signed for and just left there. My street is not really a crime hit area so it was ok but I still don't like things left there.

I just think if a child picked it up and took it how dangerous it could be

To the person asking about postage it cost $16 (£8.41) for two boxes of 4 syringes and 1 descensitizing gel syringe just in case she needed it as its her first time. They also sent the free toothbrush and little green plastic box (whats that for?) plus a small tube of toothpaste. Postage goes on weight but even if you buy the extra box of 4 on special offer on top it wouldnt make much difference to the weight they are very light.

78.97 USD @ 1.845 = £42.80 for total order inc delivery

Oh yes I also got charged an extra £1.50 by Halifax for buying abroad

Dump your bank!:mad: I use Alliance and Leicester and Nationwide and neither charges. Nationwide especially good as they do not charge for using cash machines abroad.

Yes I wanted to change to nationwide but there isnt a branch in my area and thats a bit inconvenient even though I bank online I do sometimes need to go into the branch

do whitestrips cause any damage to teeth
would these be worth using?

I have used Crest Whitestrips twice and am really pleased with the results. It seems they are freely available in other EU countries but not in the UK.

My stuff from dentist.net came today, i had to pay $20 postage how come you guys paid less? Also whats the major difference between 16 and 22% gel?

Lady_K

Well I'm not sure about that. I did read on the site itself that for international orders you have to pay $20 minimum shipping and then $12 for every lb over that so I was surprised that I was charged $16 shipping. Either they made a mistake or were just being nice

I'm not an expert but the main difference in the 16% and 22% is the strength and the 22% works faster some of the stronger ones are hydrogen peroxide instead of carbamide that works faster. I would just say be carefull with it not to leave it on too long and make sure you keep it away from your gums.

I'm sure someone else will tell you more detailed info on that but you can email them at the site and they will answer your questions anyway

so it just whitens you teeth quicker but doenst make them whiter? Do they produce 100% Carbamide peroxide
