Whitestrips Kosher?

Question:

Do the Crest or other company White Strips for the teeth have to have a Hechsher? If not, are there any ingredients I have to be aware of to avoid? Or is it not considered edible and therefore is okay no matter what ingredients it contains?

Answer:

If the white strips are flavored it is highly recommended that they should have some hechsher. Even though it is not the normal hecher you would rely upon for food products.
