GoSmile is a lot of hype, a lot of money and zero results.

1

I actually received my GoSmile Teeth Whitening System as a gift, and was definitely open to the possibility of this being an awesome product. There certainly seems to be lots of hype of this product; I'm sad to say that's all there is to the GoSmile Teeth Whitening kit. First, this set is very expensive, although you get several days worth of applications it's only a value if it actually works. I saw absolutely no whitening change in my teeth after using this (my husband had the same results) and although I like the application process of the GoSmile System (the ampulletes actually made this quite easy and no mess) but I think ultimately this delivery system is what makes this product a failure. The ingredients used in this GoSmile set really are no better than other less expensive whiteners, and actually some of the other brands I have had slight success with. However, I think because you put this on your teeth with no shield/boundaries my saliva seems to dilute it and renders it ineffective. I wanted to like this but honestly can say Go Smile was not only a waste of money but also a waste of my time. Since using this I have had my teeth professionally whitened, and was amazed by the results. Professional whitening is much more expensive and actually hurt my gums (and made my teeth sensitive for a week) but it worked - GoSmile didn't hurt my gums but it tasted nasty and ultimately did little to nothing to my teeth.

I Really Wanted to Love this Teeth Whitener; but I Didn't.

One day, I had the television on in the background halfway listening to the ladies of "The View," when I heard a woman announcing a unique teeth whitening system called **Go Smile**. Since I'm a frequent tea/coffee/cola drinker I am always on the alert for an easier way to keep my smile bright. The guest announced that if you sign up at the gosmile.com website, they were giving away free samples of the Go Smile system and touch up ampoules. So that's how I ended up sampling this unique whitening product. I have to say, I wanted to like it so much more than I actually did. The product sounds good in theory, but it has a few problems in the execution. On the positive side, Go Smile comes in individual ampoules filled with a whitening solution that you wipe over each tooth. No messy strips or trays to use. Just don't drink or eat anything for 20 minutes after applying. Sounds easy, right? Unfortunately, I actually had to read the instructions in order to figure out how to get the stuff out of the ampoules. Once you open the vial, you then have to keep squeezing in order to get the solution on the foam tip. In fact, you need to squeeze as you wipe each tooth in order to keep the solution flowing. I found the hard plastic ampoule hard to squeeze and I ended up with cramped fingers and some of the whitener still in the bottom of the vial. My poor fingers can't imagine going through that every day. One thing I liked about Go Smile is that their formula does not cause tooth sensitivity. While I applaud that fact, I also discovered that the formula did cause my gums to burn a little when it began to foam. It wasn't an awful sensation, but it certainly wasn't a totally pain-free experience either. Overall, I like the idea of the **Go Smile Whitening System **better than the actual experience. If they can go back to the drawing board and redesign the vials, perhaps I can give it a more ringing endorsement. Until then, I strongly suggest trying a sample before purchasing. Your fingers will thank you.

I like the results I get with GoSMILE Advanced Tooth Whitening Kit I just don't care for the way they are obtained.I don't like the ampoules that come with the kit.The ampoules are little tubes you break open to let the whitening gel come out.I had to take the gel and smear it all over my teeth and let it sit.It is hard to swallow when you are sitting around with the gel on your teeth.It amps up your saliva production making you wan't to swallow.If you swallow this stuff mingles with the saliva and taste awful.I found it easier to just keep spitting the excess saliva out.It does work at whitening your teeth a couple shades.It is was not gentle on my teeth and gums it increased the sensitivity of both.The bottom line is I did not like it and expected more from it being it was so expensive.

Not a bad whitener, but not the best

This whitening system is B+. Worked great, before my teeth were a 6/7 on the white scale, but then after using this product for the duration stated (I actually stopped using it a couple days earlier than the suggested) I checked my whitening rating and it was a 8/9 - so about a 2 or 3 notch improvement. I like that these thoroughly stick to your teeth without falling off. Some people might say that whitening systems like this hurt your gums, but this has not been the case for me - and I would consider myself to have pretty sensitive gums too (can't just chomp on some ice / icecream!). I bought this from amazon.com with my prime shipping, but you can also find it other places. I would try this product if you can get it for a good price, but I think it's typically more expensive than other great brands that also work great (Crest whitestrips)

Saw no difference with GoSMILE

I was really excited to use the GoSMILE Advanced Tooth Whitening Kit because I'd heard so much good about it. I was really dissapointed with the results. No change. Seriously, no change at all! It was pretty easy to apply though it was hard to squeeze the last bit of stuff out of the ampoule. I always felt like I was throwing money away when I couldn't get the last bit out. After painting it on your teeth, then it was an annoying half hour while you held your lips away from your teeth and tried not to let spit pool in your mouth and wash it off. I tried to be really careful of this because it seemed to wash off really easily. Also, it's impossible to keep off your tongue and it tastes so so bad. All this would have been fine if it just would have worked, I mean, even a little. I tried a single crest whitestrip since I only used one, I can't speak to it's effectiveness. I can, however, tell you that I like that delivery system better. Once I got it on, I felt like the whitening stuff stayed on better and I wasn't so paranoid about washing it off with spit just because I needed to talk for a second.

Nothing to call home about

Who doesn't want white teeth? I'm not a huge soda drinker but I think my years of daily coffee drinking really changed the color of my teeth. I always wanted a whiter smile but I wasn't sure which type of product to use. I had recently heard and read a lot about the GoSMILE Advanced Tooth Whitening Kit. I believe Oprah did a segment on it so I decided to try it out. Let me start by saying I was CONFUSED by the GoSMILE Advanced Tooth Whitening Kit. When you buy the kit you get these plastic capsules with a sponge-like thing in one end. I was confused as to how to use them. Of course there were directions but the overall usage of this system is just weird! You have to break open the capsules and rub the gel on your teeth. I will say that the gel comes in all sorts of flavors and never tasted bad at all. I'm not convinced that the GoSMILE Advanced Tooth Whitening Kit did anything for my teeth. I did notice a little bit of whitening but nothing to be extremely excited over. I think I require something stronger. Overall I wouldn't recommend this product. It was pretty pricey and it didn't work that well for me. I think the execution of it is just weird, though the company's marketing methods are great! The idea they have is new and cool but I think the company needs to do some re-thinking. I wouldn't rebuy the GoSMILE Advanced Tooth Whitening Kit unless serious changes have been made to it.

Good for sensitive teeth, but not as dramatic

When it comes to teeth whitening, my teeth get very, very sensitive. I've tried the Crest Whitestrips and ended up with shooting pain in my teeth, even if I only use one per day. With GoSmile, that does NOT happen! It's easy to apply and not messy. There is no pain at all, which is a big plus for me. However, the whitening is not nearly as dramatic--which could be good or bad. It's more of a natural white rather than the glow-in-the-dark look. I would say my teeth are now 2 shades lighter after using this product, and the results do seem to last. I have some friends who really were not impressed with it, so I'd say if you want your teeth to be much whiter and you don't have sensitivity, go with the Whitestrips instead. If your teeth are already pretty white and you're more looking for just a touch up or a more natural whitening effect, GoSmile is a good alternative without any sensitivity. I would recommend it.

Easiest teeth whitening ever!!!

I got this kit about 2 weeks ago and after my frist application my teeth were a shade whiter!!!!!!!! I love the fact that all u have to do is just pop the ampule and squeze it.  it's so easy to use. U do it twice a day for 7 days. My teeth are so white people look at me and say wow your teeth are sooooooooooooooo white. I say u have to try gosmile it's the best thing out there!!! u don't have to walk around with those strips in your mouth. Those would burn my gums, plus u can do this on the go and they have touch up's to keep ur teeth white. It's a little pricey but well worth every penny!! Plus u choose what teeth u want to whiten and u can get in between ur teeth really easy. Oh it does not burn or irriate your gums and it tastes good. I would receommend this to everyone. It's a must have product!!! I got my sister to buy it too and she just love loved it!! Plus they have a whole line of whiteing products.

A friend gave me the Go Smile Whitening System as a gift after I complained to her about my Bottom teeth being a little discolored.All I can say is I should have made her a former friend after the disaster I had with these little things that Go Smile calls them  ampules or whatever.The first time I tried to use these the ampules were a little tricky to figure out so I was forced to read the directions on how to even open them.Once the direction got read it seemed like this would be easy enough to use and it was.All you have to do is rub the little cotton tiped filled vials on you teeth.I accomplished that with no problem.The problem came right after I applied this to my bottom teeth and shut my mouth.When I closed my mouth this stuff came in contact with my lip and it began to burn my lip.This stuff burned some of the skin right off my lips .My lip became dry and cracked in and instant.This stuff made my lip and my gums sore for days.I will say it did improve the color of my teeth though and I only had it on for about 5 minutes not the whole 20 you are supposed to have it on.I will also say it is easy to use and far less messy than other methods.

Overpriced for the results you get

I was very intrigued by the concept behind GoSMILE, so I picked up one of the ampoules as a sample to try out how sensitive I would be. The concept is definitely different from other products on the market. You take a little plastic tube out of its cardboard shelf, flip it over, and squeeze the tube until it pops. That apparently activates the whitening ingredient. Then you squeeze the whitening stuff out until it saturates the spongy end of the tube, and brush it over each individual teeth. Because the taste was actually not bad (not great, but it's a whitening gel, so considering that, the taste was more tolerable than the whitening strips and rinses I've tried), and the best part was that you have control over how much gel oozes out and touches your gums. I didn't develop any irritation or sensitivity to the product, so I took the plunge and purchased a whole set, hoping it would be a worthy investment. Unfortunately, my results were not really worth the price. At best, my teeth had that look and feel from getting your teeth cleaned by the dentist, but it wasn't a much more noticeable white. I think that if I wanted to achieve that, I would've needed to buy another package- and at the cost, I was not ready to do that. My teeth aren't naturally bright white, so I was't expecting that, but I am a tea and coffee drinker, so I was hoping at the very least GoSMILE could remove those (which they did not). If you have pretty naturally white teeth and aren't looking for drastic results, this product does offer a pretty painless option.
