Whats the most effective way to whiten your teeth without having to go to a dentist?

I'm getting married in 6 months and want the whitest smile I can get.
--------------------
Crest White Strips are an option. However, for a wedding, I would recommend you do go to a dentist for a thorough cleaning. They can also provide you with a product similar to Crest White Strips that are more concentrated and work much better. Overall, the dentist cleaning and the whitening kit, should cost less than $200. Oh, and congratulations and best of luck with your wedding.
