teeth whitening but hate strips?
so i bought the white strips but dont like using them is there anything i could get from walmart that ACTUALLY works? i had braces, i got my wisdom teeth out not too long ago, and i quit drinking dark soda...and i want to make my smile brighter soon.
--------------------
At Walmart the strips are the best. I've tried a bunch of that stuff, plus I work at a dental office, and that is what we have our patients use if they don't want to pay for bleaching trays. But, if you want to get bleaching trays, and you'd be a perfect candidate, because your teeth are set in their position, then they work great. You can get your impressions taken at your dentists and then just bleach your teeth at home whenever you have the time. They are custom fit to you so they don't get as messy as the strips do and the bleach is professional grade (you get it from your dentist) plus they work for as long as you take care of them. So you'd bleach your teeth now, get them to where you want them. And then, every once and a while, when your smile needs a pick me up, pull them out and go again!!! It's what I use and I love it!

suggest methods of whitening my teeth?
they're almost properly white but not quite. i use a whitening toothpaste and mouthwash, is there anything else i can do? id rather not go and get an expensive treatment at the dentists.
--------------------
using the toothpaste and mouthwash really help. but if you want to give your a little 'boost' in the whitening department, i suggest you use something like crest white strips. i've used them something like, two times within five years and you only have to do it for about a week or so...very little hassle. people always say i have the whitest teeth, and i smoke! remember to keep up with the whitening toothpaste and mouthwash as well though.

How can i whiten my teeth if I have a fake tooth?
I want to whiten my teeth but I have a fake tooth. I'm not interested in whitening my fake tooth. What I was thinking is once they give me my permanent fake tooth, I could get it a shade or two lighter than my other teeth, that way I could whiten my other teeth to the shade my fake tooth is. Is that a stupid idea? I've struggled with all of this stupid teeth problems, and i would love for something to turn in my favor. Please help, suggestions or anything! Thank you!
--------------------
No you are right on.. When I got my crown my dentist asked me if I wanted it lighter then my other teeth by a few shades. Since she knew that I was also wanting to whiten my teeth. If I got it the same color as my teeth were then, I would have had one dark tooth after I had whiten the rest of my teeth. So speak to your dentist about getting the right shade for you, since you do want to whiten the rest of your real teeth. I hope this has helped http://www.insurancecompany.com

Whitening teeth. Does this sound right?
My dentist gave me some whitening formula toothpaste to use (professional bleaching) with a mold he made of my top teeth and told me to use it every night for two weeks. I did this and when I went back he told me that they did not look any whiter and wondered if I was doing it correctly so we went over the instructions again. I was doing it right. He said to just keep using it then every night until they are white! I'm worried...I thought you can wear the teeth down and turn them gray if you keep bleaching them all the time! I've done this for two weeks, all night long for a month now and he says keep going cuz they still look yellow. My gums are so raw and sore from doing this and my teeth don't change to white. : ( Do I just keep bleaching indefinitely?? How long is to long? Is this safe?
--------------------
Some teeth are very hard to whiten, like those with Tetracycline stain. Sometimes you must whiten for an extended period of time and sometimes it just wont get your teeth the shade you want. I don't expect any ill effects on the teeth form the whitening because you are not whitening them too much (too white), which is where you get into problems. The gums issue is from the gel sitting on the tissue. After placing the trays, push and spread the gel evenly over the teeth thru the trays. Wipe off the excess that comes in contact with your gum tissue. Some people grind or clench their teeth at night and this causes the gel to squeeze out of the trays. This could be causing the decrease in effectiveness and the irritation of the gum tissue. I would recommend that you try to wear the trays for several hours during the day, so that you can make sure the gel isn't getting onto the tissue. If it does, then you can wipe it off before it really has time to irritate the tissue. If you continue to try and whiten and still see no results and are getting frustrated then talk to your dentist again. It may not be worth it for you personally. If you are happy with your teeth then that is all that is important!

Laser teeth whitening?
I had jaw surgery six months ago and still cant open my mouth more than just under 2 inches because the muscles are still not fully recovered. My braces are coming off in a few weeks and im desperate to get my teeth prossesionaly whitened, using laser treatment, http://www.allwhite3000.co.uk/mainMX/all... However with the method using a laser you will need to sit with thing big white laser thing ni your mouth for an hour and im not sure my mouth will open wide enough? What are other peoples experiences with this method? And have you had your teeth whitened?
--------------------
I would wait until you're fully healed. Plus, they might not even consider you if your mouth won't open wide enough. I know many who have had laser whitening, and it does work - but I got the molds/trays from my dentist and I prefer that method. It might be worth looking into since you can sleep with the molds on and not have to keep your mouth open for any extended time. Your dentist does the mold, and it only requires you to have your mouth open about the time it takes for a normal cleaning. Then you do the bleaching at home. In any case, be forewarned that tooth bleaching can be a painful process. Using any method, your teeth will be sensitive and you might have shooting pains for weeks after treatment. I would talk to the doctor you're seeing about the jaw to make sure it's safe for you to bleach and he/she can recommend the best method.

How Do I Get My Teeth Whiter?
I brush my teeth twice a day, i use normal toothpaste, tooth whitening polish then mouthwash. I don't drink coffee, tea and i don't smoke. How can i get my teeth whiter without seeing my dentist?
--------------------
Step 1: Brush and floss regularly to reduce or prevent stains. Step 2: Try whitening toothpastes. Though heavily advertised, these only partially whiten teeth and don't provide a complete remedy. Make sure the toothpaste has the American Dental Association (ADA) seal of approval and has been clinically proved to whiten teeth effectively. Very few whitening toothpastes have undergone any type of clinical trial, and ones that are too abrasive can damage teeth or make them very sensitive. Step 3: Get regular dental cleanings, which remove many food and tobacco stains. No amount of cleaning will remove the severe staining left by tetracycline or systemic disease because these pigments lie inside the tooth; you'll have to take more aggressive measures against these. Step 4: Consider the two options, in-office and at-home treatments, for bleaching your teeth. A dentist performs in-office treatments by coating the teeth with a bleaching agent, then using periodic flashes of light to activate the solution. Treatments last 30 to 60 minutes, and the complete procedure often requires several appointments. In at-home treatments, patients wear a mouth guard fitted with bleaching gel 2 hours a day for two weeks, depending on the severity of staining. Step 5: Think about getting veneers, which are custom-made shells bonded to the teeth with resins. This procedure often requires removing a small amount of tooth structure and is the most invasive, as well as the most expensive, treatment option. OR YOU CAN TRY STRAWBERRIES! ( Natural way) 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.) Carrel says you can apply once a week.

teeth whitening that is affordable?
okay so just like everyone else in the world these days.... i hate my teeth. i have been a dr.pepper addict for years. i do not drink coffee. yet, my teeth are less that bright white. i have tried some of the strips a few times. they do whiten the teeth but leave the sides the same old color. i have been reading about whiter image a product that is offered outside of a dentist office but still uses the light to fade the stains. the problem is i have not seen anyone who has done it and i am scared the results will not last. oh yea, i almost forgot to mention, if you are thinking why not go to the dentist... no insurance, and i am terrified of them. i had a really bad experience as a child. anyone out there with an idea?

Can patients with periodontal disease get their teeth whiten?
Hello everyone, Can i use things like Crest whitening strips? harsh as it seems, i was shopping the other day - i was in the dental isle and was looking at another brand of whitening products. i read a section of it that people with gingivitis/periodontal disease can't use the product.
--------------------
You need to get the periodontal disease under control before whitening. My Husband tried to have his teeth whitened and the dentist wouldn't do it until he got the disease under control. he never said why though. That one you will need to research on or just call a dentist and ask. They will tell you.

How to whiten my teeth?
I live in the Uk, and all though we're not renowned for the best dental hygene it's always important to keep a nice bright smile. My teeth are looking a bit dull and yellowed, so I'd like to get them whitened. I've heard about laser, clinics that can bleach them, and also bleaching kits for home use? What's my best bet for getting whiter teeth? I'd like as cheap an option as possible, but I'm willing to pay extra for a better result. Are there any good brands or companies that you know are good? Thanks.

Question about TEETH WHITENERS?
i have the arm and hammer teeth whitening booster and im planning on using it when i brush my teeth every night. but i was wondering, is it still okay to use mouthwash right after using the whitening booster???????? i was afraid that the mouthwash might wash away the whitening stuff.
--------------------
Not only will the mouthwash wash away the whitening stuff, the mouthwash is a colored liquid that will stain it right back. You can rinse with luke warm salt water ( 1 glass of water and 1 pinch of salt) for a while until you're done using the whitening product. Also the following article will give you some info : http://www.associatedcontent.com/article… Good luck !

I have always used Crest Whitening Strips and have always been happy with the results. I also use Crest Vivid White tooth paste for both Day and Night. This helps give the color a boost and even it out after you is the strips. I would also recommend getting an electric tooth brush, this will help naturally whiten your teeth and keep them this way.

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 :-)

My friend recommended it and said it made her teeth noticeably whiter, and her teeth are pretty and white! But before I buy it, I want opinions from others. Does it really work and whiten teeth? Thanks!

HI, I have always had problems with faint yellow teeth. In fact everyone in my family has this problem. I have tried every product that exists along with frequent visits to dentists. Dentists have always told me that my teeth are good but I was never happy with the color. Using peroxide or baking soda is harmful for teeth in a longer run so I never used it. Trays are always a NO for me because they give lot of irritation and pain. The ONLY thing that has worked for me till date is Dazzle White. I was not sure of using it at the beginning as I did not want to waste more money. Later, after doing some research on the Internet I found out about this company giving free samples. I immediately ordered mine (just paid $1.95 shipping). This is a real good product and has worked for me. I don't work for this company nor am I related to them in any manner.

Can i just use straight hydrogen peroxide to whiten my teeth?
it seems like that is the main ingredient in teeth whiteners so i was wondering, would it help to whiten my teeth with just gargling hydrogen peroxide? the type you buy for cuts and etc?

no. it would burn up your mucosa much faster than it would whiten your teeth.
