I saw this thing on Daily Planet that said whitening your teeth with bleech works because it is an oxidizer and removes the stains on your teeth. I want to know how fast this works, what is safe, what isn't safe, and where I can find bleech for your teeth.
--------------------
If you are referring to over the counter household bleach...that is a definite no-go!!! Depending on how shaded your teeth are you should seek different types of whitening treatments. It also depends on how quick you want the desired shade to be reached. A few options...if you are looking for just a few shades lighter, for example if you have a slight yellow shade on your teeth...use Crest Whitening Strips as directed. If you want need to go through many shades to reach your desired shade of white, for example if you have a grey shade on your teeth...go to a dental office and use their whitening kits as directed. The will take impressions of your teeth, make you a soft plastic mold of your teeth they refer to as a bleaching tray and give you the % of dental bleach they feel is needed to achieve your desired shade. You will put the bleach in the tray and place the tray on your teeth and leave it on for the instructed amount of time for several days/weeks. You may have to do touch-ups once in a while. If you want a really quick fix you can visit a dentist that has Brite Smile or something along the lines of lazer or light bleaching. You may encounter sensitivity while bleaching and if it gets so bad that you can't stand it, decrease the frequency of use (how many times a day) or the duration of use (the time you apply the bleach to your teeth). You can also use Sensodyne toothpaste to help. Hope this answered your question.
