Whitening super sensitive teeth?

I have super sensitive teeth. I started using crest white strips and after 2 days my teeth started to hurt every time I ate or drank anything. I've quit using them but I still want whiter teeth. Is there any type of whitening system I can use that won't make my teeth more sensitive?
--------------------
The same thing happened to me, my teeth were so sensitive that I couldn't even sleep because they kept aching, and I couldn't eat or drink anything hot or cold. So now I just use whitening toothpaste once a day and sensitive teeth toothpaste the other time during the day that I brush my teeth.

--------------------

Recommendations for teeth whitening?

In 14 days I will FINALLY be getting my braces taken off after almost 7 years of being in them. My question is what is the best over the counter whitening system for somebody who wants great results in a couple days time? I realize that the best option for me would be to go to the dentist and have him whiten my teeth but I just do not have the resources for that right now. My husband, who has never seen me without braces yet, will be home from his deployment 5 days after I get them off and I just want them to look nice and bright. Any suggestions?
--------------------
hello you can follow some step in making your teeth whiter Instructions Things You'll Need: * Baking soda * Hydrogen peroxide * Fresh strawberries * Banana peels * Whitening mouthwash Step 1 Brush your teeth with baking soda and peroxide or a whitening toothpaste recommended by your dentist. Many name-brand toothpastes now contain baking soda to help remove surface stains from coffee, tea, and soda, and many bleaching systems contain hydrogen peroxide to help users make their teeth whiter. Dip your toothbrush in a small amount of peroxide and then dip it into the baking soda. Brush your teeth for at least two minutes and rinse your mouth well. Brush your teeth using your regular toothpaste for at least 30 seconds afterward. While this method is very effective in helping most people achieve a whiter smile, you should only use it once or twice a week to prevent tooth sensitivity. Step 2 Eat plenty of strawberries. Strawberries contain malic acid, a natural bleaching agent that may be just as effective as name brand teeth-whiteners. You can even mash a strawberry and apply it directly to your teeth to brighten your smile gently and effectively. Step 3 Try rubbing a ripe banana peel on your teeth every day. Simply use the inside of a banana peel to massage your teeth for at least two minutes before brushing. You should see a stunning improvement in your smile in as little as two weeks. Step 4 Use a whitening mouthwash to get whiter teeth and kill bacteria in the mouth. Whitening mouthwashes work well for removing surface stains on the areas of your teeth that are hard to reach with a toothbrush or dental floss. Swish the liquid in your mouth for at least 60 seconds twice daily to make your teeth whiter and improve your smile. Step 5 Avoid using products that make your teeth whiter but create long-term problems. Many household products have received acclaim on the Internet for producing bright smiles, but most dentists don't agree with the claims. Brushing your teeth in lemon or lime juice, salt brine or household bleach will whiten your teeth, but the results are only temporary and they come at a high cost. Lemon juice, lime juice and bleach can wear away the enamel of the teeth and expose the yellow dentin beneath, while salt brine destroys the delicate tissue of the gums, which can cause your teeth to become dislodged and fall out. If you're unsure about the safety of teeth-whitening products, talk to your dentist.

tooth whitening system ! How do I produce tooth whitening system? slowly giving up?

My friends couldn't give me real answers on teeth whitening kits. I want to get super white teeth, but I can't afford the $500 visit to the dentist. Do you know anything that works for super white teeth? Maybe a product I can use for my teeth whitening kits question?
--------------------
I was talking about plain white teeth last night. What a coincidence. It's harder to whiten your teeth with regular toothpaste. If you look at the isle in your local store, you'll see they have teeth whitening kits. Those are the ones that work. My friend was able to order free trials online to test them all out to see which one works the best. The problem is, the first one he used worked so well, his teeth couldn't get any whiter to try out the other ones. He got the trial kits below after a few days of researching on plain white teeth. Let me know how it works for you.

Sensitive teeth after teeth whitening?

--------------------
The whitening process has just made your teeth overly-sensitive. It will most likely disappear within 1-3 days. If you're really worried about it, contact your dentist.

What is the reasoning behind not being able to whiten teeth while breastfeeding?
--------------------
If they usually use a bleaching agent on the teeth and as you know your gums can absorb/or you could ingest the chemical which can be passed through breast milk

Is there a age for teeth whitening?

Well I'm 12.And I was on google for soft prices on health-care and I came on teeth whitening in the dental categories.By the way the website is pricedoc.com. My friend katie showed me all about it and I was amazed on how small the prices were. The cheapest price for teeth whitening was 250$ around here in New Jersey. Is there age or teeth whitening? my friend katie says no , but my other friend farrah said there is depending on your dentist and age. I don't belive there is age limit , but is there and why? - Thanks :)
--------------------
You should not have your teeth whitened until you are, at least, 18 years old. Your teeth are still erupting and you will end up with part of your tooth whitened and the part that is not fully in will not be whitened. Also, beware of how many times you whiten your teeth once you become an adult. Whitening eventually removes the pigment from your teeth. The more times you whiten the worse it gets! I have seen, at least, three patients who have whitened their teeth so many times that their front teeth are becoming clear instead of tooth colored. Instead of looking like teeth - they look like opaque windows. Don't do that to your teeth!

Whitening teeth and baking soda????? Is it safe?

I really want to whiten my teeth but they say to use baking soda ....is it safe for my teeth. If so how do i do it??????? Should i just dip my toothbrush in the backing soda????? what should i do????
--------------------
It can be safe as long as you do not use more than twice a week. Then the harm would be turning your gums white since baking soda is like sand. Your suppose to put your toothpaste on then sprinkle/dip it in baking soda. Without toothpaste you won't be doing much to help clean your teeth. Also there are toothpaste with baking soda in them, maybe you can try them out too. The thing is I've tried it and it doesn't work.

Teeth Whitening...?

Can I use the white strips more than two times a day? Will the process go faster? Because, I've used 2 sets so far, and my teeth haven't experienced any sensitivity... would it be okay and would my teeth whiten faster if I use it more than twice a day?
--------------------
Do not use them anymore than directions say. The chemicals in them can harm your internal organs if used more than directed

teeth whitening?

ok i heard hydrogen peroxide will whiten your teeth when you gargle with it. but do i do this after brushing my teeth or before?? and is it ok to floss afterwards?
--------------------
before brushing and its fine to floss. why not just use a whitening toothpaste? They do make pastes that contain baking soda and peroxide. There's also whitening strips, gels, inserts, etc.

teeth whitening?

i'm 14 years old and i got my braces off about a year ago.Now i wear my retainer at night only.I want to whiten my teeth what should i use that works well and is inexpensive?
--------------------
Crest Whitestrips is the best. Keep in mind that your teeth may become sensitive, but it's better than getting them professionally whitened because it can be costly.
Source

teeth whitening?

I don't want the fake stuff that says that it whitens teeth and it really doesn't. I'm looking for the actual stuff that isn't that expensive and definetly whitens teeth fast. Help please!
--------------------
First I would recommend that you consider having a dental cleaning and exam. If you have buildup (tartar, plaque, stain) the whitening process won't work that well. The crest whitestrips work well and are probably your lowest cost alternative. We sell them in my office ($75.00) and they are 3 times stronger and there are 3 weeks worth. I like them because they work better and if you are happy with how they look 1/2 way thru the process you just hold onto the rest and you have more to do a "touch up" 6 months later. Good luck!

Teeth whitening?

I see my dentist regularly, and brush my teeth twice a day, but do any of you know how to whiten my teeth?
--------------------
Use something like Crest White Strips! I am personally a huge fan of them. My friends at school think I'm some sort of sales rep for them (jokingly of course)! They are easy to use and you see results fast... plus I think it would be hard to mess up using them. I had no tooth pain or sensitivity after using, and the whiteness seems to last forever!

Teeth Whitening?

ok just got my teeth whitening kit from the dentist and he told me to wear my upper gum shield for 2 nights and then wear the bottom shield for 2 nights (repeating this proceeder for 2 weeks). both gum shields feel more comforable if i had them in together though, so i'm thinking about just wearing them both for 2 nights and having a rest from it totally for 2 days and carrying it on. as anyone done this procedure? did you sleep with both of them in at once?, thanks
--------------------
I wore mine both at the same time. But leaving them in for more then 2 days in a row caused pain. So the 2 night rest is a good idea.

Teeth Whitening?

Why does the teeth whitening stripes have time limits??? What happens if you leave them on too long???
--------------------
Your teeth will become whiter because, I put on a whitening stripe that I was only suppose to leave on for 30-45 minutes and I had it on for about 1 hour and 30 minutes, my teeth got extremely white when I took it off... But I also think it depends on the company whitening stripes you are using.
