Question About Crest White Strips?

They didn't really work, and now I want to get Crest White Strips Professional Effects (strength 4), but my parents are worried about me damaging the enamel on my teeth because I just finished the Vivid a week ago.

Tooth whitening
Dear Jimmy,
Tooth whitening is such a hard topic to explain, since all the media and marketing schemes have already infiltrated your mind by TV or magazines. Let me try to explain easily. Tooth whitening has NO GUARANTEES! They all claim a certain number of shades towards white. Those scales vary like you have no idea.
