Does anyone know any EFFECTIVE teeth whitening recipes and/or tanning recipes?

My teeth are stained rather badly, yellowish. *shudders* I'm not yet 16, so i probably won't be able to do laser whitening. So, like i asked, does anyone know any effective teeth whitening recipes and/or tanning recipes?
--------------------
Unless you go for professional whitening you can try the over-the-counter products or mix a little bicarbonate of soda with your toothpaste, which is the same as what is in most whitening toothpastes. This can gradually lighten the shade of your teeth. Don't use it more than 2-3 times a week as it can make your enamel thin and more succeptible to staining. Other causes of staining are smoking, red wine, spicy food (curry etc.), so try and avoid these or do them in moderation if you are concerned. Some people have naturally more yellow teeth, this generally means that you have strong teeth, but I understand it bothers you, as it does me. I have found Piz Buin self tanning is very good, it comes in a variety of shades depending on what you want. Also there are good products out these days which are creams containing self-tanning agents which will gradually build up a more natural tan, but make sure to wash your hands as soon as you have applied it as it will make your hands go orange if you don't. I hope this helps.
