Different types: I have recommended both day and night bleaching with properly fitted trays. I am not sure about crest strips.

No: These strips do not adhere well enough for night time use. You may inhale a strip into your lung or may swallow one in which case it may get stuck in your esophagus or throat. To be honest, these strips lose their effectiveness after an hour. Please use them only when awake.

Try Efferves O2: Also try using effervess o2 whitening gel. Professional strength, neutal ph, contains xylitol, just add it to your toothpaste, safe to use everytime you brush.
