What is the most effective and safest way to whiten my teeth?

I want to get my teeth professionally whitened. Help?
--------------------
You have two alternatives - to whiten teeth at home or at your dentist. If at home, there are a number of teeth whitening kits avaialable and you can get free trials with most of them. Just don't forget to read their TOS and unsubscribe of their servic? on time so that your cc won't be charged! Better to whiten teeth at dentist's office, but the price will bite!

Can a tanning bed whiten my teeth?

I know it sounds stupid, but you know how you see that "zoom" whitening technique on TV where a crazy blue light whitens people's teeth? A tanning bed has crazy blue light. Are the UV rays the same? Could I whiten my teeth and get tan at the same time?
--------------------
No, a tanning bed does not emmit the same type of UVs used for tooth whitening, however if you get a tan your teeth will appear to be whiter because of the difference in contrast. That's why dark skinned people often look like they have brilliantly white teeth.

Hi, Lot of people do face problems with yellow teeth. The reason for yellow teeth can be less calcium, smoking or coffee. Some people face problems like yellow to faint yellow teeth also because of too much brushing or using products which harm teeth. While baking soda or peroxide can make your teeth white but it is not recommended. Dentists world over do not recommend use of such pure form substances on teeth as they harm your teeth in longer run. Not all whitening trays are good, in fact many people have complained about irritation and pain with trays. Yellow teeth are not always unhealthy while bright white teeth can be unhealthy. Lot of people want white teeth so that they can smile big and don't get embarrassed while talking to friends and colleagues. Such people can use teeth whitening pens which are 100% safe for your teeth. The best thing about these products is that you can easily get FREE trial to have white teeth. You may order your free trials and have white teeth. You just have to pay for the shipping and handling. Its always better to try before you buy and I am sure it will work for everyone including you. BTW the website where you can get such free samples is http://tinyurl.com/freewhiteteeth I am not promoting the website nor am I associated with it in any manner. Just trying to help someone who is worried about bad/yellow teeth. Hope this helps. Thanx :-)

Does anyone know the two products used to whiten teeth as promoted by Cathy Anselmo?

The two ingredients are supposed to be items you would normally have in your house. she calls them 1 The Movie Star Look 2 South Beach Smile Here is the link. http://www.cathysteeth.com/teeth-whiteni…
--------------------
Its patented. No way you can find out unless you have contacts high up in the patent office or you blackmail Cathy Anselmo. But im guessing baking soda was involved.

Home Remedy For Teeth Whitening?

I Don't Know Why, But I've Recently Been Using A Lot Of Home Remedies. They Just Seem Healthier, And I Think They're Usually Cheaper Too. Any Ideas? Thanks In Advance(:
--------------------
If you are not sure talk to your dentist. However most take home teeth whitening kits are very affective and affordable. They are no different to a dental whitening just without the chair time, thats why its cheaper. Carbamide and hydrogen peroxide (bleach) are the only things that will whiten your teeth properly, just be sensible and follow any teeth whitening kit instructions closely.

Is it safe to use baking soda to whiten your teeth?

I want to know is it safe? Are there any pro-cautions when using baking soda and water to brush your teeth to whiten them? Is there a formula like how much water how much baking soda? Is there a steb-by-step? If so List them,tell me them. Thanks.Oh and can you use it to whiten your teeth when you have braces?
--------------------
teeth have two layers (Actually 3): enamel and dentin .. baking soda acts as an abrasive product, as you brush your teeth with it. Its like an exfoliation , enamel is a thin outer layer of the teeth , so i have tried it , it does work . BUT !! don't use it often because you can cause dental erosion , enamel is susceptible to damage and loss , and if you leave your dentin exposed you are going to develop sensitivity in your teeth to cold and hot .......

Ive been considering teeth whitening. Ive heard several things about the ZOOM and the Brite Smile HELP!?

Ive researched a bit and found several things about both the Brite Smile and the Zoom procedures. At lot of this has been negative, but some positive. I want maximum results with no pain and for a reasonable price. Help me choose if this procedure is right?
--------------------
I don't no much about either, but I ordered this stuff on line called brighter image and I really liked it. I noticed results the first time I used it. you should maybe check it out. Its also not to expensive.

How to whiten teeth without changing the color of clear braces!?

So, I have pretty "average" color teeth, but I'd like them to be whiter. Trouble is, I have clear braces.... is there any way that I can whiten my teeth without changing the color of my braces? I'm kind of freaking out about my teeth today, since I have a dentist appointment tomorrow!!
--------------------
when you go to visit the dentist, you should talk to him about it, and ask him if there is any way you can whiten your teeth without changing the color of your clear braces.. he should know best, don't you think? <33

Does anybody know where a 15 year old can get their teeth whitened in England?

* 15 year old who brings an adult* if that makes a difference + any idea how much it would be?
--------------------
I read an article a couple of weeks ago on Yahoo that said you shouldn't bother going to the dentist. You should just use Crest White Strips instead. The stuff they apply to your teeth at the dentist's office to whiten your teeth is the same stuff that's in the Crest White Strips, the dentist's stuff is just stronger. However, Crest White Strips yield excellent results and for a lot less money.

Can I put white out on my teeth instead of using those expensive whitening strips?

I'm poor
--------------------
No... on the White Out. However, if you want a cheap, but effective strategy... try rinsing with a combination of hydrogen peroxide and mouth wash every day. It really does work, but mix them just before using. I found out (the hard way) that trying to mix up a supply ahead of time degrades the mouth wash over time.

What is the best method of whitening your teeth?

so i really want a hollywood white smile...i have weird teeth.... ive tried everything... strips, paint stuff, trays, even one of those booth thingies in the mall... my teeth are literally a yellowish color and the dentist said no matter how much i brush,, theyll be yellow lol... the thing in the mall actually kinda worked... made them 6 shades whiter but they turned yellolw again!!! i brush them all the time.... what about a cosmetic dentist? zoom whitening? anything.... heres a pic of my teeth... http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d48/y1…
--------------------
no system is safe..............you have perfectly nice teeth, and making them whiter than your natural shade will just look silly............americans seem obsessed with having teeth so white they glow in the dark...and of course the bleaching agent will damage your teeth...making them hypersensitive longterm, no one knows what the longterm effect the bleach does to enamel as there has been no study done but it cannot be good for your dental health

my teeth need to be whitened? no whitening strips please!?

my teeth are yellow. not the whole tooth, but more towards the root of the tooth. it really bothers me,and i CANNOT use any kind of whitening strips. i don't even drink much coffee or tea. so i don't REALLY think that they are stained. well maybe. i dunno. but sometimes i will have bad breath, too. i know everyone does from time to time, but still, it worries me that i might have some kind of rare disease or something! ugh. please help me!
--------------------
i use Arm & Hammer Advance White with baking soda and peroxide . it seriously tastes like salt , but the results are worth it (:

homemade or natural whitening of teeth??? what whitening system has worked best....?

for you??? Has anyone had the laser whitening?? I want to do the most natural and inexpensive whitening?? any dentists out there or hygeniests
--------------------
Lemon juice, baking soda or baking powder can also be used for teeth whitening. Strawberries are natural teeth whiteners, simply rub them directly on your teeth or mash into a paste and apply. Apple cider vinegar can also be used for teeth whitening. More remedies and information regarding your teeth at http://useinfo-teethwhitening.blogspot.c…

What do you recommend to whiten teeth? Any type of home remedies, tooth paste in particular?

Are there any incredients that should avoid or the ones that help to whitten teeth?
--------------------
Sure you can use a mix of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. Do not use the baking soda everyday as it may wear down some enamel and irritate your gums. As for the toothpaste believe it or not one of your best ones is going to be the cheapest also.....ultrabrite. Crest strips are also very good, just do not over use them they can hurt your enamel also. Another crazy tip i cant believe i am sharing because it is a secret i like to keep to myself is pencil erasers. Yep i said erasers, lol..... I have smoked since my teens, in my teens my mother was my dental hygienist so I had to get those stains off so she would not see the them!! Those hard to get stains even on the back of your lower teeth are no problem with some persistent erasing! As i said people are always telling me how white my teeth are, even my dentist, I smoke drink tea and coffee, use ultrabrite and an occasional crest strip. Just keep in mind sometimes your teeth may have just come darker, there are things you can do during childhood and certain illnesses you can have as a child that can affect the color of your adult teeth. Those things I am not sure you can really fix. Happy erasing!

What is the best at-home tooth whitening regime?

In addition to whitening toothpaste
--------------------
SirenSong - if you look at the list of ingredients in most tooth whitening products (including the strips) you may notice that the tooth whitening ingredient is some form of Hydrogen Peroxide. Just use hydrogen peroxide instead of your regular mouth wash. Also, some tooth whitening strips can make your teeth hurt. Every morning and before bed after brushing and flossing use Hydrogen Peroxide as your mouth wash. You can buy hydrogen peroxide (3% in the brown bottle) at your local drugstore for about $2 for a 32 ounce bottle. Mix ½ ounce hydrogen peroxide with ½ ounce hot water and swirl in your mouth for about 1 minute (hydrogen peroxide is odorless and tasteless but it FOAMS and may sting your mouth a bit). After swirling, spit out the hydrogen peroxide (DO NOT SWALLOW) and then rinse your mouth out several times with cool water. A 32 ounce bottle will last about one month. Hydrogen peroxide will not only whiten your teeth it also kills the bacteria in the mouth that causes bad breath and cavities. For even more tooth whitening try a hydrogen peroxide and baking soda toothpaste like Arm& Hammer Advance White.

--------------------
I think baking soda corrodes your teeth if you use it too often. Try rinsing with hydrogen peroxide whenever you wash your teeth.
