how much do orthodontists charge for teeth whitening what is the average cost?
--------------------
it can run up to 600 dollars if you do the 'zoom' teeth whitening which is same day whitening. If you read your local newpaper (or alternative paper) you might be able to find some real good specials... even first time patients pricing.

Teeth Whitening.?

Can anyone give me the 411 on Teeth Whitening.....How long does it take? Will I be able to eat the same day? Can I smile without it being uncomfortable? I am debating on when to do it - Because my dilemma is I only have one opportunity to get it done and it happens to be on the same day as my husbands College Graduation - So of course I will be full of smiles and conversation with everyone on that day. Moreover, I need to know if this procedure will put a damper on the day of excitement or will it feel OK enough to not even worry myself over.
--------------------
there are 3 options (that work) ZOOM! 1 hour whitening that you get done at the dentisits office--works 100% of time and only takes 90 monutes (4-15 min. sessions-you get a break in between) you can eat/smile/go about your day. you CANNOT smoke, fring dark liquids for at least 24 hr's. your teeth will be sensitive for about 1 day-but this goes away. this costs $400-600 You can also get trays made by your dentist which may take a few days for them to make, then you buy the gel and do the whitening yourself at home. this is more time consuming. costs about $300-500 Or you can use the crest strips-I they worked for me, and only cost $40...you dont see immediate results. takes a few days to see the differance.

Teeth Whitening?

I bought the classic teeth whitening strips today and used them only once so far today. My teeth didn't hurt at all and I figured that maybe this time I would be lucky with them, (because I've used them before and they killed me!). Well, not until later this evening did my teeth start feeling sensitive.... Does anyone know of a way I can whiten my teeth without pain, or do you know how to help with the pain i'm experiencing with these strips? Thanks
--------------------
Yes, go to a dentist

Teeth whitening?

i got my braces off and my teeth arent as white as they used to be. Any suggestions for whitening on a budget?
--------------------
Well, "budget" is pretty subjective, but my dentist turned me on to Tres Whites, and they worked great. He charged me $100 for a package (7 trays for 7 applications to both uppers and lowers) but I've since found them online A LOT cheaper -- http://www.dentist.net/tres-white-melon.… You only need to use them once or twice a year, and they worked great for me. None of the stuff at the grocery store (white stripes, Rembrandt toothpaste, etc.) seemed to work at all on my teeth, but I did find that the Rembrandt paste helped my teeth stay whiter longer after using Tres Whites. They come in three flavors, and it only takes 45 minutes to an hour a day for one week to see major improvement. The only downside is they make your teeth pretty sensitive for a while. Lasts another week or so after you're done. It's uncomfortable, but not intolerable by any means. Seeing as the dentist charges over $700 for custom trays, this seemed like a bargain. Not to mention the fact that he's the one that told me they work just about as good as the $700 job. Good luck! Straight teeth are great, but straight white teeth are awesome.

Is crest whitening strips still effective if you brush your teeth after?

Is crest whitening strips still effective if you brush your teeth after? Does it disturb the chemicals? I read on the box that it recommends that one does not brush teeth right before the treatment... So... when is the right time to brush?
--------------------
As the directions state - Do not brush BEFORE using strips. The chemicals are harsh on the teeth. It is fine to brush after. The chemicals already did what they are going to do.

Home Teeth Whitening - Saliva is a problem...?

I want some good ideas for at home teeth whitening solutions. Problem with things such as whitestrips or mouthtrays is no matter how hard I seem to try, my mouth produces ridiculous amounts of saliva no matter how hard I try. I literally have an ocean of saliva that makes using these methods too difficult. Anyone have ideas to either eliminate this problem or avoid it? Thanks
--------------------
Hi Ace, I have tried to use the trays before and I do have the same result as you do... just don't know why there are just so much saliva come out! Therefore, i kinda stop using it as it seems didn't do any good to me! Somehow, I have choosen to use other methods such as the powder way or the pen way! Recently there are many teeth whitening product that provide different techniques to suitable to other people! I personally use the powder ones, which I just use a swap to put the powder over my teeth, and it stops the saliva problem, plus even you have lots of saliva, it won't really affect the results! You can see my link below for the review of these products and you can consider if it is something you are looking for! Hope this helps! Nick

Is $150 For Teeth Whitening a Good Deal?

There's a local clinic called Omega Laser in Ottawa, Ontario that is offering laser teeth whitening for only $150. The website is www.omegalaser.net. Is this a good deal for teeth whitening and should I trust them to provide good results?
--------------------
This deal sounds too good to be true, actually. Read all of the fine print and don't sign anything until you know for sure that all they plan to do is the whitening. Often times when a dental office advertises a low fee for something, it is to get you in the door, then they tell you that you need thousands of dollars of other treatment before the advertised treatment can be done. So my advice to you is to be careful.

Does whitening toothpaste wear the enamel off your teeth?

i always use white glo and someone said that whitening toothpaste wear the enamel off your teeth, is this true?
--------------------
Hello..Using toothpaste that has abrasive compounds in it can indeed remove the enamel and if you brush with a stiff bristle brush you are adding to the wear problem...Let me suggest you start using "ProNamel"...it will help whiten and at the same time make the enamel harder. Good luck and I wish you well. The Denture Pro.

Which teeth whitening product works best?

Some people tell me that Crest whitening strips work. But there are differen't kinds. I want to know which one works best
--------------------
it is better to use natural options! for example this product - I do not know if any pharmacies carry it but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and if you want you can read more about the product here http://www.teethwhiten.com/splash.php?ai… before I had no idea that it is possible to whiten my teeth without surgically bleaching them. I tried this product for a few days and they got whiter & brighter so quick that I was shocked. The best thing about this teeth whitening product is that its so easy to use. It only takes me a few minutes twice a day for a few days and then there white for months. I suggest to try this product because at this moment they have Risk Free Trial - so they send you sample for free and you don't have to buy it!

Natural Teeth Whitening Foods?

I've heard that some foods such as strawberries can act as natural teeth whiteners. Do you know any other foods which act as teeth whiteners? And what actually makes each food whiten teeth? Thanks.
--------------------
1. Use baking soda, white vinegar and salt – for a maximum effect. Brush your teeth daily with a paste made from baking soda, salt and white vinegar. Brushing your teeth must be done for 2-3 minutes. Afterwards rinse your mouth with a lot of water and brush your teeth with regular toothpaste for another 2 minutes. 2. Try lemon juice and baking soda. Another natural solution for whitening teeth is to use baking soda along with a few drops of lemon juice for massaging the teeth. As the lemon juice is acid you must be careful and rinse your mouth after using it so that you protect your teeth enamel against corrosion. 3. Mustard oil and salt -another genial solution Great whitening results can be seen if washing your teeth with a combination of mustard oil and salt. 4. Use strawberries for a lovely white shine. Strawberries are not only tasty fruit; they are also our alleys into obtaining great white teeth. Gently massage your teeth with mashed strawberries. Still, you should know that strawberries contain a lot of sugar and acid in their composition and after using them for whitening the teeth you must wash your teeth again with a tooth paste. 5. An apple a day keeps the doctor away- this goes for stains too! Eating daily an apple does not only bring your body minerals and vitamins, but also brushes your teeth and whitens them. 6. Try dried and powdered bay leaves mixed with dried orange peel. This is another solution that is easy to apply, but unfortunately it needs some consistency as results become visible only after a few weeks. 7. Other natural tips for whitening teeth are burnt toast combined with tooth paste. Still, this method of making the teeth look shiner and whiter can cause enamel damage if used improperly on the teeth. You must massage gently the teeth with this paste and have patience as results will be seen gradually. No matter which of these methods you want to try, remember that results can't become visible over night and that patience and consistency are a must.

Does this brand work? Picture of the bottle: http://thefuntimesguide.com/images/blogs/listerine_whitening_rinse.jpg && how long does it take to whitening .. && can you use it with braces .. && do you use it weekly,, daily?
--------------------
It isnt very strong, but it does work. I would recommend whitening your teeth with a kit, then using this to preserve the whitening. That's what I do. You can use it with braces, but be careful. If you whiten your teeth while wearing braces, You will have yellow spots where the metal stubs used to be after you get them off. I would wait until they are off and do the whitening at one time.

how do you get your teeth white with a low buget? does the baking powder really work?

i was wondering, does rinsing your mouth with hydrogen peroxide make your teeth whiter over time? my cousin said that it worked for her. she also said that she got the idea from her friend who was in the army and she said that they used it to keep their teeth clean.
--------------------
Yes, over time. But do not use it full strength, since it is damaging to the gums. It does, however take a VERY long time, and you may find that whitening strips or the process of lazers at your dentist (zoom) will do the trick faster

Teeth Whitening??

I have been considering going to get my teeth professionally whitened. Has anyone ever gotten this done? Any precautions, or was it just great? ...Thanks! ; D
--------------------
I recommend have your teeth professionally bleached at your dental office. I am a certified dental assistant and I bleach patients teeth all the time. At our office we use ZOOM which is an absolutely great product. It takes about an hour and a half and you also get bleaching trays to maintenance at home. The patients I have bleached did say several hours after getting bleached their teeth were very sensitive, but by the next day the sensitivity was gone and well worth it because they had great results. The prize of ZOOM or any other in office bleaching differs in price depending on the area in which your live. I'm in West Virginia (and yes we do have teeth in WV, lol) and the price is about $400. Also the results are instant.

Teeth Whitening.....?

Hi. I get my braces off next week and would also like my teeth whitened. How do I go about getting it done? Do I ask after I have had my braces off? Or will they ask? Or what? Thanks.

Some places ask, some don't. Simplest solution is to just say something when you go in.

Teeth Whitening?

So I'm getting my teeth whitened this weekend. Is there anything painful in this procedure? I've never done this before. Anything negative about it? I'm kinda nervous. Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!?
--------------------
They will make a mold of your teeth. You will bite down on this puddy-like stuff to make the impression. This isn't painful. They will make the mouthpiece from the mold in a couple of days and you will go back to the office to get your mouthpiece & gel for bleeching the teeth. Some folks have gum sensitivity, but I had no pain at all.

Teeth whitening????????????

What is an effective way to whiten your teeth? I'm a big coffee drinker and I've noticed that, despite vigilant brushing, my teeth have been stained yellow. What can I do to make my teeth white again?
--------------------
One of the best ways to whiten teeth is by using Listerine or peroxide. Both of these products are known to have a whitening effect on teeth. A certain amount of Peroxide can even be found in tooth whitening at-home products, which shows just how effective it can end up being for you. Using baking soda between once and twice a month in order to whiten teeth is often recommended by dentists. All that you need to do is mix baking soda with water in a small Dixie cup, dip the tip of your toothbrush in the solution and lightly brush your teeth. Keep in mind, however, that you should not do this more than recommended. Also make sure that you do not swallow any of the baking soda when you brush your teeth. (Please rank as best answer_

Before looking at teeth Whitening I'd see a dentist to make sure the tooth is healthy it could be related to your diet. I have a friend who had one of his teeth whitened by using a product i suggested from this site http://www.teeth-whitening.com.au but go see a dentist first - let us know what he/she says

what is the best thing out there to BUY to whiten teeth?
--------------------
I am a dental assistant, not a dentist, but, working in the field for almost 15 years, the best over the counter teeth whitening is the Crest Whitestrips. If you want to try professional, I don't recommend trays with actual bleach. It will tend to make your teeth extremely sensitive, and painful at times. And with some if you get it on your gums, it will burn them and slough them off almost immediately. So.....professional bleaching I would go with the one office visit, laser. Painless, yet expensive. With lasting results.

teeth whitening?

what is the cheepest way to whiten my teeth that will actually work? everyone says my teeth are really white but i think they could b better.
--------------------
The secret to this inexpensive home whitening method is malic acid, which acts as an astringent to remove surface discoloration. Combined with baking powder, strawberries become a natural tooth-cleanser, buffing away stains from coffee, red wine, and dark sodas. While it's no replacement for a bleaching treatment at your dentist's office, "this is a fast, cheap way to brighten your smile," says Adina Carrel, DMD, a dentist in private practice at Manhattan Dental Arts in New York. "Be careful not to use this too often, though, as the acid could damage the enamel on your teeth." You need: 1 ripe strawberry 1/2 teaspoon baking powder Directions: Crush the strawberry to a pulp, then mix with the baking powder until blended. Use a soft toothbrush to spread the mixture onto your teeth. Leave on for 5 minutes, then brush thoroughly with toothpaste to remove the berry–baking powder mix. Rinse. (A little floss will help get rid of any strawberry seeds.) Carrel says you can apply once a week.

PLEASE HELP!!!! oh, and i DON'T want anthing that makes my teeth super sensitive or damage the enamel. HELPPPPPP.
--------------------
well, i work in a dental office and i think the in office whitening is just too expensive. i use the good old crest whitestrips and my teeth are nice and white. just keep in mind that you shouldn't drink or eat anything that is bold in color directly after whitening. (red wine, coffee, dark pop, etc.) if you do have sensitivity, i use pronamel, which helps rebuild the enamel. it is a bit pricey, but well worth it, as you only use it every few months. hope this helps:)

Teeth whitening...?

I have a problem with teeth whitening. I brush my teeth three times a day (once after every meal) for ten minutes, very carefully. I floss once a day, adding another ten minutes to my brushing. I rinse my mouth with mouth wash (most of the time Listerine) twice a day (for thirty seconds). It's not that my teeth isn't clean. It just isn't ridiculously white. It's cleaner than a lot of people I know, but it still isn't "business" white or as white as a few people. What am I doing wrong?
--------------------
Brushing your teeth like that will not always keep the bright and white. Ten minutes per brushing is VERY excessive - three at the most. How are your gums doing with all that brushing? If you want to try whitening your teeth while brushing, use pure baking soda. Put a bit of water on it and brush away. I use to do that in my 20's and got compliments ALL the time about how white my teeth were - and I SMOKED back then! It works - just use it consistently.

What is a safe, non-expensive alternative to teeth whitening you can make at home?.

Source

Teeth whitening?

What is the best kind or brand of at home teeth whitening stripes, trays, etc.?
--------------------
Use a product like Crest white strips or another brand. Do not use products like gum, mouth wash, and toothpaste. The reason for this is because using a product like whitening strips; you will whiten your teeth in a short amount of time. Using gums and toothpaste will take longer and more importantly expose your teeth to the abrasive products for longer periods of time. This will result in tooth sensitivity and discomfort. If our going to whiten your teeth, then do it right and use the correct product then go back to normal toothpaste and products so that you do not have any side effects. Oh and if you could afford I the best way to whiten I think (through experience) is by letting you dentist do custom trays and buy the prescription whitening product. It is a higher strength and produces dramatic results.

Teeth whitening???????

How much does it cost to get your teeth bleached and is it possible to pick how white I would like them to be. Also how long do your teeth say white for after the whitening with your dentist. Thanks for answering
--------------------
Hello, The cost of whitening depends on type of whitening. I believe that you are interested in the prices of professional whitening - as much as I know you probably won't pay less than $400, the prices can be up to $1000. Unfortunately, this is the most expensive whitening method. Of course you can pick how white your teeth will be - the whitening effect depends (mostly) on the solution of bleaching agent (hydrogen peroxide). How long will the whitening effect last depends on the whitening method and your teeth, but usually the process needs to be repeated after some months. Good luck

--------------------
Although teeth bleaching is encourage, Teeth have to be fully erupted in someone's mouth before they can be properly bleached, because if they are still growing in, there's a portion of the tooth that will be whitened and the other portion wouldn't be. Ask your dentist if you and your teeth are ready to prevent any damage.

Teeth Whitening?

My friend brushes her teeth twice a day, and always has since I've known her, but for some reason she has off white-slightly yellowish teeth. Her family doesn't have a lot of money and she can't afford to go to the dentists. What would be the most effective and cheapest method for whitening her teeth? Thank you for your time.
--------------------
Hyrdrogen Peroxide and baking soda actually do a pretty nice job whitening your teeth, but it can take a while. I would say Crest Whitestrips. I've used them a few times and I actually just bought a pack today for $30 its a 10 day supply and I don't think anything has worked better for me. Another thing she could do is go on eBay and buy some of the imported stuff. It's real cheap and it comes with a mouth tray that molds to your teeth. This has worked well for me also. Just go on eBay and check some of it out. Good luck

Best over the counter teeth whitening gel system with hydrogen peroxide...?

Does anyone know the best over the counter gel/tray whitening solution, over the counter (none of those strips or paint on apps)?
--------------------
Hi, It is kind of hard to to say what is the best whitening system. if you are not going to use paint on (which i personally like very much) or strips, that leaves you only with whitening trays. I would recommend you use products with 5%-6% hydrogen peroxide or 20%-25% Carbamide peroxide which is the equivalent. I suggest you read a little more about teeth whitening. Check the site at the source they have a lot of information and they have free trails offers some of them if i am not mistaken are whitening trays. Good luck

--------------------
Yes..but why would you ?? You couldn't need to re-touch up your smile in FOUR days?? If you drink alot of coffee, black tea, colas and the like ..cut back. Certainly, refrain from them altogether(if possible) during the times that you are bleaching. Happy Pearlies...

My teeth aren't super dark or anything, but they are a little yellow from the nicotene. Anything I should do or use for opalescence teeth to make them super white again before I started smoking?
--------------------
An acquaintance told me to try out a teeth whitening kit because I asked so many 'teeth whitening trays' questions. I was skeptical because whitening toothpaste, mouthwash, strips and hydrogen peroxide didn't work out the way I wanted. I got a free trial online and had it shipped to my house. Within a few days later, I could see noticeable results. I am getting so many compliments, a friend actually went out and paid $450 to whiten her teeth. Only if she knew what I did and how much I paid for it. Enough about teeth whitening trays. Try out the baking and peroxide first and see how that works. If you end up in my situation, I suggestion the whitening kit. Good luck.

Baking Soda won't bleach your teeth, but it will help get plaque off and make them shine. Baking Soda is an abrasive and if you use it too much, the enamel on your teeth can get damaged. For details of the procedure you can refer the source link below.

Laser teeth whitening stories please! UK especially!?

I am planning on having my teeth whitened in a clinic and I'd appreciate some advice and information about procedures that other people have had. I've previously tryed home whitening kits and my dentist has explained that the peroxide strength is too low to make a difference, similarly with whitening toothpastes - so please don't feel you have to tell me about these! Also, I have never smoked, never drunk coffee or tea or wine, don't drink any kind of cola-type fizzy drinks and my teeth are naturally darker than I would like. I'd like to know if you have any recommendations and advice about good practises and prices? If you are in the London area this would be most helpful! Names of clinics and practitioners too... Basically, if you have had your teeth whitened using the laser process I'd like to hear all about it! thanks!
--------------------
I am a dentist in America but the equipment and procedures are all the same. The "laser" procedure just uses a higher concentration of hydrogen peroxide. It works very well. You can get just as white by using the other stuff it will just take longer.

Baking soda for teeth whitening?

I read that brushing your teeth with baking soda will whiten them, but am I supposed to use toothpaste at the same time too? Like, sprinkle baking soda on the toothpaste? I'm confused.

How should I do it? How long will it take until I see results? How good are the results? What percentage of hydrogen peroxide should I use? I also want to know if whitening my teeth professionally will cause any damage to them. Thx. In advance!

Get a small glass container with tight top, mix hp with baking soda until u have a thick paste. Add more hp as needed over the coming days. Works well, recommended by dentists for gingivitis and teeth whitening.

Has anyone ordered carbamide peroxide for teeth whitening online?

Is this stuff online the same quality as you get from the dentist? It seems like the online kits are much more reasonably priced compared to the dentist. The kit the dentist gives you is also done at home. So what is the difference? Can you tell me your experiences with online gels? Where is the best and cheapest sites to go to?
--------------------
It's not the peroxide, it's the custom fit tray. A strong solution (16% to 23%) should not be swallowed or come in contact with your gums. Unless the carrier tray is made to exactly fit your teeth, the solution will gush out and burn your gums or be diluted with saliva. Only a dentist can make a custom tray that will fit your individual mouth. They can also monitor your progress and check to see if the solution is too strong or too weak. Don't go cheap on your smile.

What is a very simple efficient way of whitening teeth? Drastically.. (10 pts)?

My teeth have become very yellow and it doesn't go away with brushing (obviously), what is a simple home solution to whiten teeth? SIMPLE. I don't have hydrogen peroxide or whatever.
--------------------
Inexpensive Tooth Whitening Methods * Baking soda: You don't have to spend dollars for attaining a beautiful smile. You can easily whiten your teeth up to 6 shades by applying the mixture of baking soda, salt and some water. This mixture should be applied like a paste with a toothbrush. It is advisable to rinse your mouth after usage for rejuvenating your oral health. * Hydrogen peroxide: It is one of the main ingredients of almost all whitening gels. You can also combine hydrogen peroxide with baking soda for bleaching your teeth naturally. It is one of the best home remedies. * Baking soda and strawberry: Strawberries can act as bleaching agent when mixed with baking soda. You can form a paste of strawberry and baking soda for whitening your tooth.

My friend has major problems with this, and I'd like to help her, but she hates chemicals and wants a eco-friendly, free and something from her house to fix the problem. Any solutions?

Does this brand work? Picture of the bottle: http://thefuntimesguide.com/images/blogs/listerine_whitening_rinse.jpg && how long does it take to whitening .. && can you use it with braces .. && do you use it weekly,, daily?
--------------------
It isnt very strong, but it does work. I would recommend whitening your teeth with a kit, then using this to preserve the whitening. That's what I do. You can use it with braces, but be careful. If you whiten your teeth while wearing braces, You will have yellow spots where the metal stubs used to be after you get them off. I would wait until they are off and do the whitening at one time.

teeth whitening?

i was wondering, does rinsing your mouth with hydrogen peroxide make your teeth whiter over time? my cousin said that it worked for her. she also said that she got the idea from her friend who was in the army and she said that they used it to keep their teeth clean.
--------------------
Yes, over time. But do not use it full strength, since it is damaging to the gums. It does, however take a VERY long time, and you may find that whitening strips or the process of lazers at your dentist (zoom) will do the trick faster

how much hydrogen peroxide and baking soda should i use for teeth whitening?

what amount of hydrogen peroxide should i use with what amount of baking soda in order to make a whitening paste??
--------------------
This technique slightly helps whiten teeth, but not nearly as effectively as the gels designed for whitening teeth that contain Carbamine Peroxide and can be purchased at dental offices along with the carrier trays that are needed to hold the gel on the teeth. To use the peroxide-baking soda technique, you should use enough baking soda in a small bowl or disposable that can then be picked up by a toothbrush for several applications to the teeth. Then add enough medical hydrogen peroxide to make a gooey paste, the thickness of toothpaste.

Can you use four whitening strips at once to avoid them only covering some teeth?

I've heard that with crest whitening strips they only cover about six teeth on each row... Can you just use two strips on each row, like two top and two bottom, so that they cover twelve on each row..? Or are they specially designed to fit certain teeth..? Thanks!
--------------------
You could do that...but they likely would be difficult to keep in. Best tip....smile your widest. That is as far back as you need to whiten. Otherwise no one is going to see your whitened back teeth. You would be wasting good money if it were not needed. If you still want to cover all your teeth then I would suggest that you go to your dentist and have bleaching trays made. They are more costly but they cover every tooth. Plus you have to buy the bleach from the dentist each time you run out.

Teeth whitening with dental trays?

I'm wondering if anyone got a mold of their teeth and gels from their dentist to whiten their teeth. I'm curious which gel you used, how well it worked (I'm looking to achieve movie star white teeth), and how long the results lasted. *Please respond only if you used custom-made trays and gel from a dentist, not Zoom or over-the-counter whitening agents, like Crest Whitestrips.*
--------------------
I was working at a dentist office for 5 years and I have used the tray myself. It really works. We were using a gel called Nite White. You had to wear the tray either overnight or for 8 straight hours. You can see the result within a week. It will last for about a year/year and a half depending on the food you take (coke, coffee, smoke, etc make the tooth yellow faster). You can always get a refill kit. The tray is pretty easy to use. It fits tight on your teeth since they take a mold, so you won't have as much saliva problem as with the strips. It ay take you a day or two before you get used to it. What we recommended to our patients was to use the upper tray for 2 nights first to see the difference. The only thing you need to make sure about before using the gel is you don't have any cavities. The gel causes teeth and gum sensitivity and if you have any cavities, it can get painful. One disadvantage to bleaching teeth (either method) is if you havee white fillings, it will not change the color of the fillings. So, if you hav any fillings specially on the front teeth, you may have to replace them with the whiter shade fillings once you are done with the whitening. Hope it helps

i brush my teeth twice a day with whitening toothpaste but they are still yellow.?

i have never smoked and dont eat lots of curry ( have heard these things give you yellow teeth) and i am 15 but my teeth are yellow. i have tried all the whitening toothpastes but it still doesnt seem to work. how can i get them whiter with out professional whitening (obviously im not old enough). i used to have braces for a year and they started turning yellow then. any help?
--------------------
Tooth color actually comes from within the tooth, not the surface. Many things affect tooth colour, including food, beverages, which stain, and certain medicines that discolor the tooth from inside. Most whitening toothpastes that you get at, say, Walgreens, have extremely mild bleaches or scrubbing agents that remove surface staining only. Chances are your teeth are yellow from the inside and the only person who can whiten them are your dentist. Wait until you're older, save up, and have them properly whitened. Too much whitening toothpaste can actually be bad for your teeth. Hope this helps!

Whats works good for whitening teeth?

yeah so i got my braces off a year ago and now my teeth are so awesome except they could be whiter. Also the price can't be real high.
--------------------
Lemon juice, baking soda or baking powder can also be used for teeth whitening. Rubbing the bark of walnut tree brightens the teeth. Strawberries are natural teeth whiteners, simply rub them directly on your teeth or mash into a paste and apply.More remedies and information regarding your teeth at http://useinfo-dentalcare.blogspot.com/

ANYONE HAVE QUICK TEETH WHITENING METHODS?

the only thing i dont like about my teeth is the fact that the two front teeth are yellow! i asked my dentist why they are still yellow even after brushing daily, and she said that it was an effect from taking some type of medication when i was younger, a growth defect. so basically, they are stains -_-! is there any fast and easy way to reduce the look of yellow stains? PLEASE HELP! it's so bothersome.
--------------------
I haven't tried a lot of teeth whitening product stuff, but I can tell you that I tried the free sample of Crest Whitestrips and I noticed a difference after 3 or 4 days, but my family noticed a difference within 2 days. I didn't think my teeth were that yellow to begin with :P I have heard of people having sensitive teeth after but I did have that problem. I'd recommend trying them out first in case you are one of those unlucky people who has a sensitivity problem. Just go to the Crest website and look for promotion and it'll lead you through a series of steps or just go to the direct link http://www.freesamplesfromheaven.com/cre… Good luck :)

Sharp pains ("zingers") when whitening teeth - what are they caused by?

You know those really sharp intense pains that some people get when they whiten their teeth - why do they get them? Is it because the bleach hit a nerve in the tooth or something?
--------------------
It is because of the whitening gel. the pain will go away when you stop whitening after a little time. But if you still want your teeth to be whiter use ACT or another fluoride rinse to help build up the enamel and use the whiting gel less often. This should help. Ps it is not getting to the nerve of the tooth
Source

Does whitening your teeth damage the enamel?

I heard it does but Im not sure. Also, Is it safer to get it done at the dentist's office rather than by drug store products?
--------------------
I was told that it is enamel-damaging when you bleach your teeth. I am not entirely sure if that is true, because the majority of my friends have told me that. In your position, I would ask a dentist to be sure but it doesn't hurt to try drug store products. Crest whitening strips are good and they seem to work, however they are expensive. (Keep in mind it would be less expensive than getting it professionally whitened.) I say ask your dentist and see what he/she says, then decide on whether you want to whiten them there or consider in investing your money on drug store products.

Teeth whitening whats best on a budget?

I cant afford to have it done by a cosmetic dentist, what are the best products people have tried? There are so many on ebay! Thanks for any responses
--------------------
The best products are the kits you can get from your dentist, but I have pretty much all the home remedies and I found that the crest extra whitening toothpaste plus scope and the 14-day crest white strips do a great job. I use the toothpaste regularly and the followed one box of crest strips as suggested and now use a set of strips once or twice a week. I was talking with my dentist the other day and he noticed how white my teeth were and we got talking and he asked what I had been doing. He said the crest stuff and all the home kits tend to not work that well unless people stay away from overly dyed foods, like koolaids, dark pop, coffee, tea, etc. So if you really want them to work and last be sure to reduce your intake of these things. I don't ever drink anything dark and am a little OCD about my teeth so they worked amazingly. Hope this helps and good luck.

Which is the best affordable Teeth Whitening products?

Hi everyone, i just wanted to ask, what are the best, most effective, and affordable teeth whitening products that can be purchased from a local pharmacy (not from any websites)? There are so many different kinds, i don't know which ones are good or not, which ones work or not, so yea i just wanted to ask for you opinion. P.S. I was thinking about trying the Listerine whitening pen because so far from what i have seen, it the cheapest teeth whitening product, have anyone tried it before? if so, how did it work out? Thanks
--------------------
I personally just used the "bellaBrite" system and found it to be the most effective product for me and for a very reasonable price. They also let me enjoy a short free trial of the product and I was told that if I wasn't completely happy with the product I could send it back at anytime and not pay a penny. As for the actual results, my teeth have never looked better. I feel so much more confident in my smile and am not afraid to do it anymore. I also have enjoyed a better response from the opposite sex, and several girls have even asked me to share my secret to whiter teeth with them! Overall, the product was really effective, at least for me, and the cost was comparable to most teeth whitening products you might see at your local store.

do i have to go to the dentist or get strips or can i make my own with stuff from home if so can i have a recipie
--------------------
You want to whiten your teeth, however there are issues with the price for the procedures or treatments. There are several alternatives that delivers same results as with a laser treatment at in less cost way. One of your option is to have teeth whitening kits supervised by your dentist or you can have the one that are available over the counter. Other popular methods are by using teeth whitening strips, gels and toothpaste which are used over time can achieve same bright and white teeth results with laser teeth whitening. Whatever alternative option that you will use make sure that it is effective and safe. Settle with products that contains natural but effective ingredients and contains same levels of bleaching strength that your dentist use and they are safe to use especially by individuals with sensitive skin and gums for they do not contain harsh ingredients that may cause irritation. Although there are several teeth whitening treatments available that said to be effective natural teeth whitening procedure are much preferred by some patients for they are effective and safe and it has been proven effective for it has been used for centuries already even before teeth whitening treatments and procedures were born in the market. To maintain the whiteness of the teeth practices such as avoiding foods or beverages that causes stains and discoloration should be observed. Such products are coffee, tea and sweets. Baking soda and salt is a best and effective natural teeth whitening solution. Baking soda neutralizes the acids that damages the tooth and it also kills bacterial plaque. Another natural teeth whitening treatment are natural herbs they may not deliver immediate results as chemically based products but their benefits outruns products that are chemically made for they are safe and does not contain harmful ingredients that may cause damage to tooth and gums. Although lemon juice has been proven to be effective in cleaning in teeths but they contain acidic solution that may cause damaging effects to the teeth and gums. What important is whatever method you use to whiten your teeth make sure that it is safe and free from side effects. for more information on teeth whitening you may visit http://www.maximumteethwhitening.com/art…

The cheap kits have a mouth shield that will fit anyone, so you don't get the desired results. What you need to do is go along to a dentist and have a mould taken of your teeth. You will have a pair of shields that fit you very snug and will last for a very long time (lifetime). The bleaching agent can be bought from ebay very cheaply. Dentist charge £25 for a syringe and I paid just under a fiver for the same stuff. Don't go down the false economy route.

What is the Best teeth whitening product?

I've never used any teeth whitening products and I'd like to remove some stains from my teeth. So which one/ones works the best? A d does the white eventually fade back to the same color your tooth was before to where you'd have to whiten them again? If so, how long does the white usually last before it starts to fade?
--------------------
A super easy quick way to see a difference in your teeth color is using this cheap home recipe with items you have at home. - Brush your teeth well before you do this. - Get a Dixie cup and dump in a teaspoon of baking soda - Next take a cap full (lid) of hydrogen peroxide. -Mix them together with a normal tooth brush. - Dab teeth with the mixture or areas you want brighten. - After you do that for all your teeth, spit out and rinse with water. - I take a wet wash cloth and clean my teeth. - THen brush your teeth to get the taste out, drink plenty of water. This a very quick simple way to brighten your smile. Never do this treatment more than like once a week or a couple times a month bc it can hurt your enamels and gums. If you see that your gums turn white after you finish, its normal just clean with a wash cloth also it just means the peroxide is killing germs. :)

teeth whitening?

I have been using a mixture of baking soda and peroxide on top of my tooth paste which is "plus white". I don't see any results but i have only been doing this for a week. Some one mentioned adding salt. What does salt do for your teeth? Does this mixture actually work?

Teeth whitening?

I am going to the dentist soon to have my teeth whitened, I was wondering if they make them fully white on the first visit?
--------------------
you can have immediate results if you do laser teeth whitening and zoom whitening but other than that it may take over time to have your desired results using the trays but professional treatments may be expensive. there are actually natural teeth whitening products that can achieve professional results in five days or less and one more thing, it is safe and effective to use for it does not contain hash ingredients that may cause irritation to your teeth and gums. ask your dentist for some recommendations on the treatment that you want. for more tips and information on how to get your teeth whiten just visit http://www.maximumteethwhitening.com

Teeth Whitening?

How can I whiten my teeth at home without using strips or anything. I heard peroxide works, but what else?
--------------------
I think that you should just carry on brushing your teeth regularly, cause it looks horrible when people go too white like simon cowell.

teeth whitening!?

can i use the baking soda method on my teeth if one of my tooth was chipped and i had bonding on it. WIll that tooth whiten? What othe rmethods are there to whiten my teeth then?
--------------------
Bonding does not cover the entire tooth itself. Bonding usually is used in repairing a chip. Bonding will not whiten, but if the bonding is lighter than the tooth, then you may be able to get to tooth back to its normal color to match that bond. Most over the counter whitening products do not work. If you go to your dentist, he can make an impression of your teeth and order a whitening tray to fit your teeth. The dentist will give you some whitening gel and you can wear your tray out and nobody will notice it. I wear mine for about an hour twice a month as maintenance. To begin with your dentist will give you a schedule to wear the tray that is more intensive. After that you will have the tray for future use. The gel is very inexpensive.

teeth whitening?

i would like to have my teeth whitened but am reluctant to go to a dentist because of the expense. can anyone recommend a product that you can use at home that produces excellent results.
--------------------
Tooth whitening whether done at home or by a dentist uses either hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide in various concentrations. The advantage of a dentist making bleaching mouthguards is that a high concentration of the whitening product can be held against the tooth without it being washed away or swallowed. Not all dentists have high fees for this process. DO NOT use highly abrasive toothpastes. They will make your teeth darker, as you will brush away the lighter enamel and expose the darker yellow core of the tooth known as dentine. The dentine is sentitive and also much softer than enamel. Not everybody can benefit from tooth whitening. Some require veneers or crowns to get that beautiful smile.

Teeth whitening?

Hi, I was just wondering about tooth whitening products and coffee. I have a friend in Turkey who wants to know how well Crest white strips work and if continuing to drink coffee would defeat the purpose. Thanks!
--------------------
Crest white stripes work really well. I think continuing drinking coffee wouldnt defeat the purpose but you would just have to whiten more often. Also colgate "radiant" is a whitening toothpaste that works really well!!

Teeth whitening?

Guys, i have really nice and white teeth apart from one. It is really yellowish in comparison with others, i do not drink or smoke, and hate coffee, so i do not understand why it is yellow and why only one of them..i also regularly brush my teeth, do you know anything that coudl whiten my tooth.? Thanks
--------------------
Usually when you have one tooth that is darker or more yellow than the others it is because that tooth has been injured or is dead. There are things your dentist can do to help you, but we really can't make a diagnosis on the internet. A common method to fix a dead tooth is to do a root canal.and put bleach inside the tooth until it matches the color of the other teeth. Your dentist will be able to help you with your specific problem much better than we can on the internet.

Help for sore teeth after whitening?

Yesterday I did that Rembrandt 2 hours whitening kit, followed the directions correctly except actually left more time in-between the treatments. Today my teeth just feel sore, it is not to bad but I have no tried eating/drinking yet. I was wondering if anyone could suggest anything until it goes away? Would just taking a tylenol help?
--------------------
Tylenol would help temporarily, but I would do a quick brush with sensidyne and you should be fine :D hope I helped :)

teeth whitening? what products are the right ones to use?

i have a stomach problem and the stomach acid has left my teeth a tad yellow. they are starting to annoying me, so i was wondering what product to use. i tried this cheap stuff from target but it didn't work well. any suggestions?
--------------------
it is better to use natural options! for example this product - I do not know if any pharmacies carry it but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and if you want you can read more about the product here http://www.teethwhiten.com/splash.php?ai… before I had no idea that it is possible to whiten my teeth without surgically bleaching them. I tried this product for a few days and they got whiter & brighter so quick that I was shocked. The best thing about this teeth whitening product is that its so easy to use. It only takes me a few minutes twice a day for a few days and then there white for months. I suggest to try this product because at this moment they have Risk Free Trial - so they send you sample for free and you don't have to buy it!

Does using listerine after brushing teeth with whitening toothpaste prevent whitening from working?

I have a five-minute teeth-brushing routine: 1. Floss 2. Use Anti-Plaque Before-Brushing Rinse 3. Brush with with toothpaste with whitening agent (Crest, etc.) 4. Rinse with Listerine with Anti-Tartar control Does using the Listerine mouthwash wash away the whitening agent and prevent it from working? I know off-the-shelf whitening toothpaste does work miracles, but I haven't noticed much whitening after months of using it...

NO IT DOES NOT

Teeth whitening has only whitened sections of my teeth...HELP?

I've started using a 35% Carbamide peroxide whitening gel with a silicone impression tray..but it has only whitened certain angles/parts of my teeth. I filled the tray with an equal amount of gel but it still left me with this result. If i keep on whitening will it whiten the whole area of the teeth? Or is there anyway to fade the really white parts? Please help! Thankyou!
--------------------
Haha I always have the same problem. The white parts are called fluorosis, if you keep whitening your teeth they WILL eventually match the level of whiteness don't worry!

After using Zoom whitening do your teeth fade a little before they whiten?

I've just had it done and in the dentist's chair they looked really white and now have faded a little. I remember one of the dental nurses saying ages ago the teeth fade for a day and then go white after that?
--------------------
no. I never heard of that. If you saw it look whiter in the office but now it's not as white, that's a bit odd. maybe it was their lighting? or maybe their product. But that shouldn't happen. It bleaches your teeth & can't fade & then bleach again. so NO is my answer. I'd tell them & let them know you know better than that. I hope they didn't lie to you. I was a dental assistant for 10 yrs & saw many people get teeth whiteners . I also have done it myself. This never happens! I'm sorry.

Is there any way to Whiten your teeth without a Whitening product? Also a weight question!

Is there any way to Whiten my teeth without Strips or Gels? Can I eat or drink other foods? Or will just using Certain toothpaste help alot? I usually only drink Diet Pepsi or Juices. Sometimes Gatorade. I am an Obese person. I weigh 165 and am only 14. I'm 5'4. So if there is any one food to stop eating that will help my teeth and my weight that's be great to know. Also is there any foods that help my teeth by being stronger and Whiter? Any foods that help my weight too?
--------------------
You can brush ur teeth with colgate total which is a great toothpaste and add a bit of backing powder wich will whiten ur teeth pretty fast once there are white u should stop using the baking powder though cuz it may cuz the lost of tooth enamel if u use it for over 2 months straight. and for the weight u have to stop drinking pops and gatorade those things have crazy amount of sugar in them drink natural apple juice or orange juice (nothing from juice boxes)or water i dont know what u eat but u should only eat 3 meals a day and maybe 1 snack and 1 dessert. keep junk food once a week and i u want too slim fast drink those shaques that fill u up i dont know what there called but u can find them at any pharmacie or food store and remember to excersise and play sports sitting on the couch wont help u !!!!

how much hydrogen peroxide and baking soda should i use for teeth whitening?

what amount of hydrogen peroxide should i use with what amount of baking soda in order to make a whitening paste??
--------------------
This technique slightly helps whiten teeth, but not nearly as effectively as the gels designed for whitening teeth that contain Carbamine Peroxide and can be purchased at dental offices along with the carrier trays that are needed to hold the gel on the teeth. To use the peroxide-baking soda technique, you should use enough baking soda in a small bowl or disposable that can then be picked up by a toothbrush for several applications to the teeth. Then add enough medical hydrogen peroxide to make a gooey paste, the thickness of toothpaste.

i brush my teeth twice a day with whitening toothpaste but they are still yellow.?

i have never smoked and dont eat lots of curry ( have heard these things give you yellow teeth) and i am 15 but my teeth are yellow. i have tried all the whitening toothpastes but it still doesnt seem to work. how can i get them whiter with out professional whitening (obviously im not old enough). i used to have braces for a year and they started turning yellow then. any help?
--------------------
Tooth color actually comes from within the tooth, not the surface. Many things affect tooth colour, including food, beverages, which stain, and certain medicines that discolor the tooth from inside. Most whitening toothpastes that you get at, say, Walgreens, have extremely mild bleaches or scrubbing agents that remove surface staining only. Chances are your teeth are yellow from the inside and the only person who can whiten them are your dentist. Wait until you're older, save up, and have them properly whitened. Too much whitening toothpaste can actually be bad for your teeth. Hope this helps!

Is it ok to drink coffee after whitening teeth? If not, how long do I need to wait before consuming it again?

Are there any other foods or drinks that I should avoid? Thank you!

You can, but be aware that coffee and tea will form surface stains on the teeth.

Whats works good for whitening teeth?

yeah so i got my braces off a year ago and now my teeth are so awesome except they could be whiter. Also the price can't be real high.
--------------------
Lemon juice, baking soda or baking powder can also be used for teeth whitening. Rubbing the bark of walnut tree brightens the teeth. Strawberries are natural teeth whiteners, simply rub them directly on your teeth or mash into a paste and apply.More remedies and information regarding your teeth at http://useinfo-dentalcare.blogspot.com/

ANYONE HAVE QUICK TEETH WHITENING METHODS?

the only thing i dont like about my teeth is the fact that the two front teeth are yellow! i asked my dentist why they are still yellow even after brushing daily, and she said that it was an effect from taking some type of medication when i was younger, a growth defect. so basically, they are stains -_-! is there any fast and easy way to reduce the look of yellow stains? PLEASE HELP! it's so bothersome.
--------------------
I haven't tried a lot of teeth whitening product stuff, but I can tell you that I tried the free sample of Crest Whitestrips and I noticed a difference after 3 or 4 days, but my family noticed a difference within 2 days. I didn't think my teeth were that yellow to begin with :P I have heard of people having sensitive teeth after but I did have that problem. I'd recommend trying them out first in case you are one of those unlucky people who has a sensitivity problem. Just go to the Crest website and look for promotion and it'll lead you through a series of steps or just go to the direct link http://www.freesamplesfromheaven.com/cre… Good luck :)

Sharp pains ("zingers") when whitening teeth - what are they caused by?

You know those really sharp intense pains that some people get when they whiten their teeth - why do they get them? Is it because the bleach hit a nerve in the tooth or something?
--------------------
It is because of the whitening gel. the pain will go away when you stop whitening after a little time. But if you still want your teeth to be whiter use ACT or another fluoride rinse to help build up the enamel and use the whiting gel less often. This should help. Ps it is not getting to the nerve of the tooth

What's the best way to whitening teeth?

My little brother is 9years old. He has extremely yellow teeth. Is there any posible ways to help my brother make his teeth back to white? My brother was at the dentist yesterday and the dentist said it will cost about $2,000 to make them white and its not a must he saids. Wondering if that dentist is trying to rip him off.

crest whitestrips worked wonders for me- used them once a day for 2 weeks (couldn't take the twice a day) now I just use them about once a month. WAAAYYYY cheaper than 2grand!
