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.
