I have heard u can use bi carb to whiten teeth but what exactly do i do?
--------------------
The most common option used as homemade teeth whitening agent is baking soda, which has a mild bleaching action. Given that it is used in baking, it also implies safety. Baking soda is sprinkled on the toothbrush, and teeth then cleaned using a gentle, circular motion. Care should still be taken though, especially for people with gum sensitivity. Old wives' recipes often state that a paste of baking powder, a little salt, and a few drops of white vinegar, works effectively. Salt, used exactly as baking soda, is also touted as being a good teeth whitener. However, it might just be its osmosis, dehydrating action that makes teeth appear whiter, since dehydrated teeth look whiter. Lemon juice is often used, but it had high acidic levels, so teeth can weaken in the long run. Other natural, fruit options regard rubbing the inside of an orange peel on the teeth. A strawberry cut in half and the inside rubbed on teeth also works. Mashed strawberry can also be applied with a toothbrush. Apple cider vinegar is also said to be effective. Dried orange rind, and walnut bark, is also good. For other effective home teeth whitening solutions, you may wish to read about them here : http://teeth-whitening.my-fashion-house.…

Help on whitening teeth!?!?
Has anyone used a product to whiten there teeth and worked? If yes, what product did you use?
--------------------
Before whitening your teeth, you should find out if your teeth have thin enamel. This can cause your teeth to have a yellowish or brownish apperance. Whitening will not help in this situation and can make appearance worse and cause sensitivity. A product called NatureWhite contains carbamide peroxide is supposed to whiten your teeth dramatically with just one 45 Minute application. It is said to be the same thing that dentists use and that dentists use a 12% solution while NatureWhite uses a 22% solution. Crest white strips, by comparison, have a 3% solution. Chewing on crunchy foods like carrots, apples and celery, is said to cause friction which helps get debris off your teeth that can stain them. There are many old natural remedies and some new natural and/or herbal products, as well as, some chemical products, all claiming to whiten teeth. The color of teeth comes from genetics originally, and it varies person to person. Teeth will natually discolor over time due to age. The best way to keep teeth as white and you were designed to have, is to avoid foods, liquids, drugs, and products that stain teeth. Avoid things known to stain teeth, like coffee, tea, red wine, berries, tobacco products, food colorings, etc.... Avoid direct exposure to a lot of raw lemons or citrus products like tomatos, limes, oranges, as the citric acid wears the enamel off the teeth, and when dentin is exposed (like with cavities), it can cause discoloration. If you do eat them, rinse your teeth right away. Avoid carbonated drinks that contain phosphoric acid, like coca cola for the same reason. Sports drinks often contain citric acid, phosphoric acid and organic acid (coffee contains organic acids, also). The latter two are known to break down calcium, along with breaking down enamel. Also, If you eat raw papaya or raw pineapple, rinse your mouth after eating them, as they have enzymes that can cause sores in your mouth and gums, because they break down proteins. The antibiotic tetracycline is known to cause teeth to stain and so is fluoride and caffeine. Mercury fillings cause teeth to stain where the tooth comes in contact with the filling; This is because of galvanization. So, one should get all amalgams replaced. Gold seems to be ok as long as it is a good quality gold such as high noble, and white composites or porcelain fillings can be used. Hydrogen peroxide can whiten teeth, but it can penetrate teeth, which are porous, and cause sensitivity. It is used in dental bleaching. It is a special 35% solution, so buying the 2% bottle of it over the counter in hopes to make your teeth white, will not work and could eventually cause sensitivity, irritation, or inflamation of the gums. Myself, I do not recommend teeth whiteners of any kind, for the same reason. If you do decide to use a teeth whitener, either over the counter or from the dentist, if you are not avoiding foods that cause staining, your teeth will stain again, and you will have wasted your money. To whiten your teeth often, will most likely cause sensitivity, enamel breakdown, and can lead to cavities. The long term effects of teeth bleaching on nerves and blood vessels inside the teeth are unknown. Laser bleaching seems to cause more problems with sensitivity than non-laser bleaching. Bleaching does not work on false teeth, crowns, veneers or fillings (even white ones). You may opt to replace those with lighter shades if you don't like the color. Bleaching is not recommended for children whose teeth are still developing or for pregnant or breastfeeding women. It is important to brush after meals to avoid plaque and tartar build up, which can also cause discoloration. Avoid toothpastes that contain abrasives to fight plaque and tarter, as they can wear away enamel and make the dentin show through (which has a yellowish or brownish tint), which can cause staining, or cavities or cause your teeth to appear brown or yellow. Also, avoid brushing too hard for the same reason. If you do consume products that cause staining, use water to rinse your mouth directly afterward. There is a technique called internal bleaching. The only way it can be done is to have a root canal, and root canals cause devastating health effects and should be avoided altogether. The British Dental Association has expressed concern that the smokers' whitening toothpastes Clinomyn and Pearl Drops are too abrasive. Many whitening toothpastes contain titanium dioxide, a suspected carcinogen and can be absorbed by the skin, and, when the effluent containing it is discharged from manufacturers, it acidifies rivers and seas. Smokers toothpaste, Topol, containing an abrasive form of silica to remove heavy stains from tar and resin deposits can cause damage to cementum and dentin in people with gingival recession, resulting root exposure. Tooth whitening actually requires modifying the intrinsic tooth color, chemically alterating the chromophores within the tooth. Whitening toothpastes using bicarbonate, alumina and polyphosphates cannot whiten teeth; All they can do is contribute to stain removal. Whitening requires bleaching or enzymatic disruption. Acid penetration and dissolution has not been an acceptable method of whitening for nearly a century. Many products claim whitening ability with various peroxides -- hydrogen, calcium or carbamide. For over-the-counter peroxide content is kept low. It has effervescence and maybe some short-lived bleaching because peroxide is rapidly broken down by oral enzymes from bacteria and saliva. Gels stay on longer, but must be used with a tray to work. Only whitening products used by dentists have ADA acceptance. Over-the-counter product manufacturers have never attempted such claims. A product called NatureWhite contains carbamide peroxide is supposed to whiten your teeth dramatically with just one 45 Minute application. It is said to be the same thing that dentists use and that dentists use a 12% solution while NatureWhite uses a 22% solution. Crest white strips, by comparison, have a 3% solution. Before whitening your teeth, you should find out if your teeth have thin enamel. This can cause your teeth to have a yellowish or brownish apperance. Whitening will not help in this situation and can make appearance worse and cause sensitivity. There are herbs that have been used throughout history to whiten teeth. Sage boiled in water to make tea was said to strengthen gums and whiten teeth. During the middle ages, powdered mint leaves were used to whiten teeth. Charcoal was touted as the best powder to use for whitening teeth, removing tartar and preventing decay. Other common ingredients in tooth powders included: cream of tartar, camphor, white castile soap powder, cuttle fish bone, precipitated chalk, powdered borax, powdered gum myrrh, powdered orris root, and talc. The majority of these ingredients cleaned and whitened teeth. Here are some other natural remedies : Take a teaspoon of lemon juice and a tsp of salt. Make a paste. Apply this on the yellowish tint. Use the inner white part of an orange peel to rub teeth for a lovely white shine. Take half teaspoon of bi-carbonate of soda mixed with a little water to form a paste. Rub this on your teeth. Dried & powdered Bay leaves combined with dried orange peel is an excellent whitener. Strawberries, oddly enough are said to have cleansing and bleaching properties that can help remove of tea and coffee stains, especially from dentures. Crush the strawberries gently and rub the pulp onto your teeth. Rinse with water. There are some new tooth pastes and products with Bromaine Complex, a combination of the natural enzymes, Bromelaine from pineapple, and Papain from papaya, said to be clinically proven to whiten teeth. Dentizyme is an herbal remedy; it consists of a unique blend of bio-active plant enzymes, organic botanicals, rainforest botanicals, and essential oils. Dentizyme users report fewer or no gum disease symptoms, they also report that their gums look pinker and healthier along with excellent teeth whitening results and teeth stains are said to disappear entirely with continued use of this herbal extract. ______________ here is some info on zoom: http://www.rebeccablood.net/archive/2007… Price is $500 to $675 How does Zoom teeth whitening work? This method consists of a mixture of gel and special light wave treatments. The patient is seated and the dentist uses a retractor to separate the lips from the teeth so that the gel can be applied. A special gel is then applied on all the exterior faces of the teeth. The dentist is careful, at this point, not to let the gel touch the patient's gums too much, as it may cause irritation or lesions. How long does it last and what effects can I expect? The answers to the questions are different from one person to another. In most cases, a Zoom teeth whitening procedure is done twice a year. An average person who drinks coffee frequently and smokes daily will have improved tooth brightness - around 10 shades brighter. After the procedure is completed, the teeth will gradually start to regain their yellowish color over time, depending on how well you take care of them. On average, people who went through in office tooth whitening procedures noticed that their teeth stay white for months, although the initial brightness does not last more than a few weeks. ----------------------- for toothpaste, i recommend neydent or apagard and for a toothbrush, i recommend an ionic (not sonic) brush. Neydent NeyDent ® prevents caries and pain when the teeth are extremely sensitive. NeyDent ® also improves the blood flow, which strengthens the gums and builds up resistance against colds and infections. or APAGARD remineralizing toothpaste • According to the Japan Corporate News Network, Japanese toothpaste manufacturer Sangi has developed a technology to control ultrafine particles. The company will start to distribute New-Apagard, a toothpaste based on the technology, in April 2004. Sangi claims the paste is highly effective in re-calcifying and whitening teeth.

What is an easy way to whiten your teeth without going to the dentist?
Or having to blow a lot of money. I use colgate total(which says whitening on the tube) and listerine both AT LEAST twice a day. I have the whitening listerine but I don't like it as much as the regular. I'm just curious as I am starting to see things in the world much differently. Like money, love, girls, psychology, and human nature in general.
--------------------
There are many teeth whitening from home systems and it worth to try best products. To not spend money ,some offer risk free trial, like Idol White Teeth Whitening or Alta White Teeth Whitening systems (see the source box site for more details).In this way you can test if this really works for your teeth. Use baking soda one time each week (not more to not destroy your enamel). Hope this helps !

Does pure baking soda bad for your teeth?
When growing up I used to use on my teeth and it would really whiten. It used to advertise teeth whitening on the box. It no longer advertises that its use is for whitening teeth and Im wondering if its because its not good for your teeth.
--------------------
It is very good for your teeth and gums, but.. to abrasive to use daily, used once or twice a week to help help tremendously to remove stains and plaqe is fine, It does make a great mouthwash that can be used daily(1/2 tsp mixed with 5 oz water. it may not taste minty, but it removes odors!

How can I whiten my teeth for cheap?
How can I whiten my teeth without buying expensive things to whiten my teeth or go to the dentist? What are some inexpensive ways I can do so without destroying my teeth? I brush my teeth for 3-5 minutes everyday and it still is kinda yellow-ish. I want to get them white as possible if I can without destroying my enamel.
--------------------
You can try baking soda for about twice a day for a week to see results, but the best way to do it is to brush twice daily and if you are not allergic to strips then use those, they really help a lot. You can get them at wal mart from $5 to $35 depending on how many and what brand you buy. The strips are the best btw.

whitening teeth before dental bonding a good idea?
I am going to get my front teeth bonded in about a month due to these bright white stains i have always had on them. However I wanted to whiten my teeth beforehand because I have heard that you cannot whiten bonded teeth. Is this true? and if it is, is it a good idea to whiten my teeth before I have them bonded? and finally what is the best at-home tooth whitener product?
--------------------
Check with your dentist. I would have him/her whiten them because it is much quicker and will give much better results than an at-home whitening kit. You want them their truest color to get a good match with the bonding. For future maintenance of your whitened teeth, ask the dentist which product you can use that will not harm the bonding. Good luck!

How can I whiten my teeth naturally?
Sometimes I laugh because I say to myself I have butter teeth. My teeth are beginning to turn yellow. What remedy do you recommend to whiten teeth? I've heard of baking soda & peroxide? Is it safe? What about goSmile? Do those Crest toothpaste challenges really work and if they do what is the correct number of times I need to brush my teeth a day?
--------------------
Using baking soda acutally works very well. Just wet your tooth brush and scoop it into the baking soda, then brush your teeth. If my teeth are looking yellowy, that's what I do. Most toothpastes only whiten teach minimally, and since baking soda is a concentrated substance, it really does work. I'd recomment brush with baking soda in the morning (arm and hammer works fab) and then regular toothpaste at night. :)

Most effective professional tooth whitening availiable?
I am going in 2 weeks for my Zoom Whitening and my dentist told me that you don't always get that "Hollywood smile." Does anyone know if there is any professional teeth whitening better than Zoom? Thanx
--------------------
As a dental professional, I can attest to the fact that the ZOOM Whitening system is arguably the best process available at the present time. Results of course, vary... but that's the case with almost everything. The only way to get a true "Hollywood Smile" would be to go with veneers--- but the price is of course considerably more than Zoom. I think you're making a good choice... Good Luck to you!

What's a fast-ish (like, less than a few months) and fairly inexpensive way to whiten your teeth without using commercial teeth-whitening products (like those Crest White Strips and stuff like that)? I'd rather keep the enamel I have.

Dont put straight peroxide on your teeth, it unstable in its bottled form and damages your enamel. I havnt tried it, but some people swear by brushing their teeth with baking soda.

This will cost a bit of money but I would get the oral b vitality for free teeth whitening. If you brush with it 2-3 times a day your teeth will be pretty white. And if they are dull, I heard most stars use petroleum jelly. Others take an easier (some say a lot faster) solution with whitening kits. There's a lot of product trials out there you can sample and use to see which one works out better for you. Hope my free teeth whitening two cents can be useful.

use baking soda infact arm and hammer has a great tooth paste and it whitened my teeth.you could also use crest whitening strips but not too often because it weekens your teeth. and i know this sounds super gross but you should try brushing your teeth with dove soep.it really works after a few weeks you could even look it up it does work.but use that for only your teeth then wash your mouth with toothpaste afterward like you would noramaly do.for some reason the soep gets rid of plaqe better than a toothbrush. also never use salt it eats away at your enamle and drinks .also if you ask this question on google you ind a lot of answers from other peoples yahoo's,you might find my answers are all the same for whitening.oh and too much coffe really is hard on your teeth. in pharmacys they cell these weird mini tooth brushes for people who are on the go.whenever you are done drinking coffi you can brush your teeth with it.good luck

Is it safe to use clorox bleach to whiten teeth?
Is it safe to use? should i rinse with it? or just put some on like a cotton ball and press it against my teeth? should it be watered down (if so to what ratio?)

Does bicarbonate of soda really whiten your teeth?
I think thats what its called anyway. Yes does this whiten your teeth? If so is it bad for them and can you use it even if you have braces without causing harm. Thankyou!!!

Should i whiten my teeth if i still drink coffee?
yeah so my teeth are kinda yellowish....and im guessing its cuz i drink coffee every morning so i was wondering if i used those ktis to whiten my teeth would it still work if i still drank coffee or would the stains just come back quickly? also if i should whiten them, please tell me the type of kits that work well and dont hurt your enamel...ty i will not stop drinking coffee....i just wanna know if the kit will work or not if i continue drinking it..
--------------------
so how many years have you been drinking coffee? Well just look at it like this it took that many years for your teeth to get stained. It will probably take just as many years for them to stain again. whiten them and just touch up when needed.

What's the best way to whiten my teeth?
I am looking to get my teeth whitened...but I'm definitely going to have to do it at home because I'm on a budget. I've never done this before, and I'm only doing it because my wedding is in three weeks. So, the questions I have: 1. Best brand 2. Best method 3. When should I start? 4. Does it hurt? Thanks so much!!

:) Hello!! I think you're smart for doing it at home, you can get really great results!! 1.) Best brand - I liked Crest whitestrips, and also Go Smile...I got the whitestrips at the store (Target, Walgreens, Walmart..etc) I bought the Go Smile kit on Ebay...Go smile is a little more pricey, but its wonderful, and easy! 2.) Any of the at home whitening kits anymore are strips - they have new trays that Ive wanted to try -Aquafresh white trays...but The strips are great and soo easy! 3.) You should start whenever you want! It will take about 2 weeks to get the full results...so :) start soon. 4.) It does not hurt at all - the only thing that hurt was the white strips a little - like, try not to get them on your gums that much, cuz the chemicals they use in the white strips can burn your gums a little, and it doesnt hurt bad, its just more annoying, if you get a little burn it will go away in a day...over all its totally worth it!! Good luck :) you'll love your new smile!!
