I've heard these cause some pain, but for my wedding pictures, I thought it would be worth the sacrifice. It was. The first night I put them on I had some sensitivity in one tooth so I moved the strip slightly and the pain went away. I put them on in the morning on the way to work and brushed my teeth once I got to work. (The directions say that for best results you aren't supposed to use them on freshly brushed teeth.)

After I put them on I used my fingernail to push the strips into the spaces around my teeth for a good fit and then pushed them down off my gums. This definitely alleviated any sensitivity on my gums that I had felt on the first day.
I bought the 7 day pack and used all of them. About one week after I was done, a friend (who didn't know I was using them and hadn't seen me in awhile) said that my teeth were super white and asked if I had them done!
