had my teeth laser whitened not long ago and after that procedure i use a lot of whitening products & whitening strips to maintain the treatment i had but unfortunatelyy there still yellow. It gets me really down and stressed out iv spend so much money and nothing has worked. I don't drink tea, coffee or smoke, i drink a lot of water, milk and brush after having foods that stain. I've been to the dentist to have them cleaned and well that didn't do a lot. I also floss every other day :)

I wonder if you dentist explained to you the different types of tooth discolorations and the realistic whitening results to be expected for each individual. We are all born with specific color enamel, just like we all have a little different color skin or hair. Some people have very yellow teeth, perhaps they were raised in an area that had well water with a lot of fluoride. Those people usually get a good whitening outcome. Then there are those who where exposed to tetracycline when they were a baby and they have "grey" colored teeth. Unfortunately the grey colored tetracycline stain teeth do not whiten very well and usually require bonding or veneering of the teeth to achieve the desired result.
