(all three products being whitening products) or is there a sort of maximum white shade you can achieve?
--------------------
This is good to get them white, but it will thin the teeth big time. U need Enamel Care toothpaste. Baking Soda should get them white naturally.

teeth whitening?? not whitestripes?
i dont want to get my teeth professionaly done or have to go out and buy whitestripes. i heard that backing soda and hydrogen perioxide is good at whitening teeth. is this true and if so how do i do it?
--------------------
get a q-tip (a little wet, not soaking only wet to pick up baking soda) and put it in the baking soda. Rub baking soda on desired teeth or tooth. Keep smiling for thirty minutes (just to like keep your teeth to dry and on the outside DO NOT CLOSE MOUTH OR LET TEETH GET ON INSIDE OF MOUTH!) hope I helped! (:

Tooth whitening without going to the dentist?
I want to whiten my teeth do you know of any excellent products or home remedies that work??

Crest Whitening Strips and whitening toothpastes with ADA (American Dental Association) seal of approval. Without the approval, the toothpastes don't 100% whiten the teeth.

Teeth whitening tips? ?
I really want to get my teeth whiter without all those expensive products(or if possible, no products at all). Is there any way? I heard that baking soda works, but how do I use it?
--------------------
Having your teeth professionally whitened gives instant results and is therefore the most effective way - But a downside to this method is the price as well as the damage the bleaching causes your teeth. But don't worry! There are other, less expensive methods - they give very good results if you use them properly. firstly - stay away from all things that may darken and stain your teeth: -tobacco -caffeine (tea, coca-cola, coffee) -most berries -certain vegetables (eg. potatoes) -flouride (is contained in some toothpastes and WILL discolour your teeth!) The secret to naturally white teeth is malic acid, which acts as an astringent to remove stains. If you combine strawberries with "baking soda" it becomes a natural tooth-whitener and cleanser. You need: 1 ripe strawberry 1/2 teaspoon baking soda Directions: Crush the strawberry to a pulp, then mix with the baking soda until blended. Use a soft toothbrush to spread the mixture onto your teeth. Leave on for 5 minutes, then brush thoroughly with toothpaste to remove the berry–baking soda mix. Rinse. (A little floss will help get rid of any strawberry seeds.) - but please don't overuse this method! baking soda is an intense and harsh cleanser - effective but acidic. The maximum i recommend using this method is once a week! If you're in a pinch with no baking soda - simply rubbing a strawberry against your teeth and leaving it for about 5 minutes is effective by itself :) - good luck!

peroxide teeth whitening?
I heard that putting peroxide on your teeth, or rinsing with peroxide will make your teeth whiter? My teeth are not as white as I want to them to be, I'd like really white teeth without spending money on teeth whiteners. Does this really work? and how long until you start to see the results?
--------------------
Unfortunately, home base remedies work very slow. You cannot fight years of staining and expect to see noticeable results in a few days. For that you need professional products. Some offer free trials so look for them on the web.

whitening teeth.....?
i want to whiten my teeth. - i tried whitening strips but i dont like to use them they taste nasty, are hand to put on and make my want to gag. - i dont want to use any laser thing or whatever, just something i can buy at the store - any kinds of really good whitening tooth paste? :) - no whitening by dentist. thank you. :D
--------------------
I have not had any good results from whitening toothpaste personally, but I have had a lot of luck with Idol white, although I do not know if you can buy it in stores as I ordered it online. I have been using it for a couple months now and the results are amazing, I noticed a difference within just a couple days, nothing drastic but they were definitely noticeably whiter. They also offer a free trial at their website below. I will say after a couple months of use, their is a huge difference in how white my teeth are now, definitely a product I will continue using throughout my life.

Have You Tried Teeth Whitening Strips?
Do whitening strips actually work? If so, which ones? Any other suggestions? (besides visiting a dentist)
--------------------
One popular tooth whitening product that you can use is bleaching solution that contains peroxide for bleaching tooth enamel. The bleaching agent in these products is usually carbamide peroxide, which is available in 10, 16 and 22 percent concentrations. Whiteners that contain peroxide typically come in gel form and are placed in a mouthguard. Some products are used twice a day for 2 weeks while others are intended for overnight use for a 1 to 2 weeks period. If you can obtain the bleaching solution from your dentist, he will be able to construct a custom mouth guard to fit your teeth precisely. Currently, the American Dental Association endorses only dentist-dispensed home-use percent carbamide peroxide tray-applied gels. In addition to bleaching solution, whitening strips are increasingly being used as a preferred tooth whitening product. For instance, you are now able to get your hands on a set of Crest Whitestrips Supreme from any convenience store. The flexible, invisible strips are coated with an enamel-safe tooth bleaching gel. To whiten your teeth, you simply place the strips on your teeth and wear them for about 15 to 30 minutes each day. After a period of about 21 days, you should be able to see a significant difference on the brightness of your teeth.

Question about whitening teeth?!?
I want to whiten my teeth but they're super sensative. I tried using the whitening strips but they hurt really badly. Is there any other method I could use?
--------------------
Unfortunately if the white strips are hurting your teeth then all kinds of whitening methods will. I had the same problem as you. I started using Sensodyne toothpaste and I am practically cured. It really works.

Teeth Whitening at age 11?
Hey Guys I am Jenna I am 11 I think i need Teeth whitening for some reason, I brush my teeth before breakfast, After breakfast and before i go to bed.

Like things you can bu, if you knkow what i mean?? x x Thanks Love You all xoxo

Any whitening of any type is bad. Why is it bad? Simply because you have been conditioned to such perceptions. Naturally coloured and worn teeth are ALWAYS more attractive. We all can surely all see that some people with fake white teeth aren't true or normal to themselves. So why would you want to be appear to be weird like these people who need to have fake properties? They are not attractive properties what-so-ever!

Professional teeth whitening at the dentist: does it last/is it worth the money??
My teeth have gotten yellow over the years due to being a coffee drinker. I get those little cheap whitening kits from Rembrant and the white-strips, and they do a so-so job of removing the yellowness. It doesn't really get my teeth white; it just makes them look a little bit better. But after I do the two-week plan of white-strips and stop using them, my teeth get yellow again very quickly. This summer I am thinking of saving up and having my teeth professionally whitened at the dentist. I think it costs about $350. I was wondering if anyone has some input on whether it is worth the money. When you have it done professionally, does it last at least a year or so??? I don't want to spend that kind of money if my teeth are going to end up yellow again after a month or two. Thanks.
--------------------
the extra white you get with professional is very temporary. The Rembrandt kit has the same ingredient, just weaker solution. Try a second kit. Few people get white white teeth, but get improvement in their overall lightness

the local mall is offering teeth whitening for $99. what credentials do their "salespeople" need?
is it safe? the person who performs it... are they dentists?
--------------------
There is no requirement for any credentials for someone to offer and perform tooth whitening. It is an unregulated procedure. Your hair salon can offer it; I have seen it offered in the spas on cruise ships. This is a perfect case for "Buyer Beware."

teeth whitening how soon will i see results?
if i get them whitened my the dentist how soon will i see results
--------------------
Hi! I've been in dentistry for over 20 years. My patients see the results right after we are done. The Zoom works very quickly and most patients are thrilled with the results right away. You will get a kit to take home to use if you want to, but most of the time it is not necessary, just a touch up if yur teeth tend to stain faster than most people. It is more expensive, but the results are in the dental chair. You can also go to Wal-Marts and get a Crest kit for about $20. to try that first. Some people DO get the results that they want with that, without a lot of tooth sensitivity with the dental procedure. AND that is only temp. Good luck ~M

Stubborn yellow teeth! I need whitening help!?
After I got my braces of last year, I begun to stop taking care of my teeth, and they are now a shade of yellow. And I know it sounds absolutely disgusting, but it's true. And now since I am entirely devoted to fixing up my appearance, I am looking for a way to whiten my teeth by brushing or using a whitening kit. After I am somewhat satisfied with the look of my teeth I am considering going to get my teeth whitened by my dentist. Specific questions: What can I do to insure that I will at least have white teeth? Specific toothpaste brand? Whitening kits? Rituals you may have??

Teeth Whitening for my 13 year old niece with braces?
ok so i never had braces so i dont know how to approach this. my niece who is 13 years old is getting braces off in lik 5 months. they dont want their teeth to look all dirty and yellow and not white, especially when you have like perfectly straight teeth. so my niece wants to whiten her teeth a little. and since shes practically a kid/teen, i dont think stuff like whitening rinse, white strips or any of the adult methods would work/be safe. so other than brushing twice a day, rinse, brush her tongue, and floss, i dont know what else she should do, especailly since shes 13. and she has about 2/3-5 months until her braces are coming off. and she doesn't want spots where the brackets were on her teeth. SO PLEASE DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO ANSWER THIS, because i dont.. PLEASE ANSWER!! 5 STARS TO BEST ANSWER!! :D 10 points anyone?!
--------------------
Usually when braces are taken off, the orthodontist removes the stains a bit themselves, after that, use a toothpaste such as Sensodyne Pronamel gentle whitening or Arm and Hammer gentle whitening. Your right to not want to use a strong whitener as these do damage especially young teeth, but a gentle one as above should be ok - the idea is to build up surface enamel rather than strip the teeth of enamel like most strong whitening products do.

is it ok to put whitening gel on my invisalign trays until my teeth get to my prefered whiteness?
i use invisalign for my retainers so i dont need to worry about my teeth being straigned first., i already had braces.. will the gel break the trays also, what can i do after i put the gel on to get it off. listerine?
--------------------
No Way! The invisalign is designed to hug your teeth. If you put bleaching gel in it, then the gel will more than likely surround your gums, and bleaching gel will irritate the HELL out of your gums! Don't Do It!!!!

Here are many ways that you can whitening your teeth! For home remedies. Mix baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to form toothpaste. Brush the teeth regularly with this paste. It will remove all stains in a month. Use bicarbonate of soda 5 minutes before brushing the teeth with normal toothpaste in the morning. This is a good home remedy for teeth whitening. Rubbing the bark of walnut tree on the teeth helps in removing all stains from the teeth. Strawberries are considered natural teeth whiteners. Rubbing the teeth with strawberries daily will remove all the stains. If you would like a suggestion on tooth whitening gel, here's something for you! Crest Night Effects Whitening Gel (about $18.00) allows you to remove stains while you sleep. The tooth whitening system has a fresh, wintergreen flavor. After fourteen days of sleeping with this product on your teeth, you will wake up to a vibrant smile. You should see results in two days, although there are reports of tooth whitening results in one night More on http://www.toothwhiteningproductreview.c…

How can you whiten your teeth..NatRuaLLy, w/o those whitening products, etc.?
Why does you teeth get yellow even though you brush your teeth everyday and eat healthy?
--------------------
Brusing your teeth too much or too hard will actually make your teeth yellower. The dentine beneath your enamel (the hard, pearly, transluscent outer layer of the teeth) is yellow. The more enamel you remove, the more the yellow dentine can be seen. Many whitening treatments (such as whitening toothpastes) whiten with abrasives. This type of whitening only works to remove surface stains like coffee and cigarette stains and it will actually increase the rate at which you remove your enamel and show more yellow dentine. To slow this process use a soft bristed toothbrush and a soft brushing action. Use a non-whitening, low-abrasive toothpaste. The only way to whiten the dentine at home is with a tooth bleaching solution of some sort. They generally contain some sort of peroxide. These treatments unfortunately can make your teeth more sensitive. If you use one I suggest you use it in conjunction with GC Tooth Mousse or a toothpaste for sensitive teeth to help prevent sensitivity occuring. -------------- Note: I read the info provided in that link from Geevi a. I would strongly advise that you do not brush your teeth immediately after using the strawberry treatment. The malic acid will remove mineral from your tooth enamel leaving it soft and highly susceptible to toothbrush abrasion. You should rinse thoughroughly with water to remove any acid remaining in your mouth and then chew sugar-free gum to enhance saliva production. The saliva will help remineralize your enamel. You should wait at least an hour before brushing.

which drugstore tooth whitening product is the best?
my teeth are pretty yellow; actually they are noticeably yellow and i was thinking of using a drugstore package to whiten them. i heard the whitening strips are terrible, dont work, and are painful but i heard the aquafresh whitening trays pro gentel system is effective. honestly the pain doesn't really matter. i just want to see my teeth dramatically whiter but done in a safer enamel-safe way . what product do you think works the best for you?
--------------------
Honestly, I think Crest and Aquafresh are both great. I have more experience with Crest but have heard great things about the Aquafresh trays. Both of these are so easy to use and are so convenient. They are also nice because I can see a difference in the shade of my teeth within just a few days of using them. Give one of them a try and your smile will be brighter before you know it!
