What are the disadvantages of Crest Whitestrips in Whitening Teeth?

I heard that because it is a strip then the yellowing will still remain between teeth since it cannot get between teeth. ** Also how long does it take before i can notice a difference?
--------------------
The strength or concentration of whitening agent is much too low to have a substantial effect. They also don't cover enough surface area to do a good job and do not get interproximally, as you already stated. And your saliva serves to inactivate and dilute the action. Try bleaching trays with prescription strength bleach (22% carbamide peroxide) or pay for an in-office powerbleach like Zoom or Brite-White. Just remember, crowns and white-colored fillings don't bleach, so you may have to redo the restorations or be very cautious not to overbleach. And be careful not to create microporosities in the enamel; this will damage your teeth.

Poor woman seeks advice on teeth whitening ?

I have been to my dentist today and have been advised to use pola night teeth whitening to whiten my teeth as this treatment is very, very effective, they told me pola night would make me look like a model, however... Does anyone know how I can whiten my teeth without using this dental bleach as I am on income support and can not afford this treatment from them as they told me to buy this pola night teeth whitening will set me back £290, I would love to try this polanight teeth whitening product but can not afford it from my dentist. Does anyone have an answer: How I can whiten my teeth at home without paying out any money ?? Please help me, as I need some teeth whitening as I have very bad teeth stains as I have been eating too many take aways, ( curry and piza most nights etc..), plus my 60 aday cigs and my 5 bottles of red wine wine that I get from m&s. does make my teeth look rather yellow. Please do offer me some advice on how my teeth can look white again without buying these products as I am on very low income support, not to mention that I have 6 children to feed etc and this does not come cheap ! Its about time they did MY teeth whitening FREE on the NHS ! Thanks from Kelly P.S - I cant wait to hear from you all, with your tips, advice and answers

FIRST QUIT SMOKING AND QUIT DRINKING. AND THEN TRY BAKEING SODA. FORM A PASTE WITH IT AND THEN BRUSH.

Cheap at home remedy for whitening teeth?

What is the BEST way to whiten teeth at home with stuff around the house or something cheap I can buy? I need the best thing!
--------------------
Rubbing coal on your teeth is supposed to seriously whiten your teeth but i would not advise trying that, sounds like it would hurt and yeah sounds horrible.....but i would try Crest Vivid White toothpaste. I used it and it did whiten my teeth, it helps to remove surface stains and works in like 2 weeks. White strips also work but they can be pricey, so it depends on how bad you want to do it. Good luck!

I had braces, will whitening my teeth leave squares?

About 2 yrs ago I finally got my braces removed. I have to say my dentist didn't do that good of a job cleaning the glue off. I can still feel the glue on several of my teeth. He basically just filed each section of glue down so it wasn't so thick. I really want to have some type of teeth whitening procedure done but I'm worried about having yellow spots from the glue. What should I do?
--------------------
First off, take an object and try to scrape the glue off, then brush it off with a toothbrush. Don't worry about it leaving squares, as it should not. Also, do NOT go get your teeth professionally whitened. It is not worth the money at all. Go to your orthodontist and pick up Crest whitestrips PREMIUM. They last for 30 days (twice a day) and will cost around $70. Much, much cheaper than retail stores or having your smile professionally done. I used these products and your teeth will be so white it is ridiculous. They work extremely well if you get the premium. Also if you have an essix (clear) retainer you can use it to hold the strips in place, and they will be no hassle at all. Hope it helps.

Teeth whitening make teeth translucent at ends?

I whitened my teeth about 6 years ago and they were WHITE but now they are not quite so white and are a little bit translucent on the ends from the bleaching. If I whitened them not so intensely, say with Crest whitestrips or something like that, would this make my teeth more translucent? Anybody experience anything similiar? THanks a lot!
--------------------
this tooth whitening thing was probably one of those chemical ones that dont really clean your teeth. Your teeth are probably badly damaged by now, but if you use normal toothpaste, you can still keep your teeth as healthy as possible, as long as it is not some dodgy tooth whitening one. I always thought if you want to whiten your teeth, brush more times a day with normal paste. Im guessing that the enamel on your teeth is wearing out? Im not a doctor, im probably wrong.....

What is a good teeth whitening product?

I'm trying to avoid the expense of having it done professionally, does anyone have a success story with a store-bought product? Crest White-strips vs. Aquafresh White-trays? Anything?
--------------------
Brushing your teeth after every meal will prevent your teeth from getting any worse. And of course keeping away from coffee, tea and smoking will help too. ;-) The crest whitening strips work pretty good. I notice a difference the first few times I used it, but the more I used them though the less difference I saw. As far as the whitening tooth paste and mouth washes, they don't seem to do anything at all. What worked the best for me was this mail order stuff from teethwhiten.com, it worked really quickly. They had a free sample offer so you can try it out and see how it works for yourself. Click the link below if your interested in getting the free sample:

has any one been riped off from a free teeth whitening offer?

i sent for 2 FREE! teeth whitening offers this meant they charged my card $120.00 i gave my card number for S&H and they went crazy please help beaver
--------------------
That was the catch...unfortunately. The best thing will be to cancel that card, if no refund is issued.

How much does teeth whitening usually cost?

i'm thinking about getting it done i was going to try the white strips do they work just as good or should i just go to the dentist ?
--------------------
White strips work, but they cause sensitivity to your gums. Hydrogen Peroxide works great! You can buy this at Walmart. All you do is: first take regular mouthwash like listerine then brush your teeth-Crest Vivid White 3D best toothpast ever for whitening teeth it removes to 80% stains in 14 days! It only cost $3 it works. Then take Peroxide and swish it around your mouth or take a cotton ball and dab peroxide on it and place on the tooth! It works. A lot of people do it to whitening their smile for weddings! Hope this worked!

Where can you buy plus white teeth whitening systm in the uk? or alternative?

Ive seen videos about this but they are american.. does anywhere in the uk stock it? Or what is an effective alternative?

Hi, Lot of people do face problems with yellow teeth. The reason for yellow teeth can be less calcium, smoking or coffee. Some people face problems like yellow to faint yellow teeth also because of too much brushing or using products which harm teeth. While baking soda or peroxide can make your teeth white but it is not recommended. Dentists world over do not recommend use of such pure form substances on teeth as they harm your teeth in longer run. Not all whitening trays are good, in fact many people have complained about irritation and pain with trays. Lot of people want white teeth so that they can smile big and don't get embarrassed while talking to friends and colleagues. Such people can use teeth whitening pens which are 100% safe for your teeth. The best thing about these products is that you can easily get FREE trial to have white teeth. You may order your free trials and have white teeth. You just have to pay for the shipping and handling. Its always better to try before you buy and I am sure it will work for everyone including you. BTW the website where you can get such free samples is http://www.freeteethwhiteningsamples.com… - Its the first top product listed there. I am not promoting the website nor am I associated with it in any manner. Just trying to help someone who is worried about bad/yellow teeth. Hope this helps. Thanx :-)

What is the best WHITENING product (teeth) at the store?

I've heard that strips don't always work the best because they burn or make your teeth sensitive. I need something I can buy at Target or Wallmart for a decent amount of money. Please don't tell me not to whiten them because its bad for your teeth. I'm going to do it anyway so I need one that is dentist approved and effective. Thanks! :)
--------------------
don't waste your money on the store strips. buy bleaching kits on ebay. they are similar to what the dentist use but safe for home use. the store stuff does nothing, it's just not strong enough.
