i whiter teeth fast!! any tips or products that are cheap!

Commercial tooth whiteners use hydrogen peroxide and are expensive and inconvenient. A cheap and natural tooth whitening home remedy uses few strawberries but certain precautions have to be taken. I found the information at http://www.aches.in/toothwhitening.html

Does Arm & Hammer Complete care toothpaste with extra whitening really help make your teeth whiter?

i just bought it today because I'm getting my braces off soon and I just wanted to know if it really works
--------------------
I use that toothpaste and even the regular one and for me it works great HOWEVER I would not advise you to use it every day..it is very strong, even the regular one and has a lot of baking soda in it. My dentist told me that it's doing its job awesome, but to not use it on a daily basis but every other day.. good luck and make sure to use your retainer lol :)

Is it safe to bleech your teeth to whiten them - how well does this work?

I saw this thing on Daily Planet that said whitening your teeth with bleech works because it is an oxidizer and removes the stains on your teeth. I want to know how fast this works, what is safe, what isn't safe, and where I can find bleech for your teeth.
--------------------
If you are referring to over the counter household bleach...that is a definite no-go!!! Depending on how shaded your teeth are you should seek different types of whitening treatments. It also depends on how quick you want the desired shade to be reached. A few options...if you are looking for just a few shades lighter, for example if you have a slight yellow shade on your teeth...use Crest Whitening Strips as directed. If you want need to go through many shades to reach your desired shade of white, for example if you have a grey shade on your teeth...go to a dental office and use their whitening kits as directed. The will take impressions of your teeth, make you a soft plastic mold of your teeth they refer to as a bleaching tray and give you the % of dental bleach they feel is needed to achieve your desired shade. You will put the bleach in the tray and place the tray on your teeth and leave it on for the instructed amount of time for several days/weeks. You may have to do touch-ups once in a while. If you want a really quick fix you can visit a dentist that has Brite Smile or something along the lines of lazer or light bleaching. You may encounter sensitivity while bleaching and if it gets so bad that you can't stand it, decrease the frequency of use (how many times a day) or the duration of use (the time you apply the bleach to your teeth). You can also use Sensodyne toothpaste to help. Hope this answered your question.

Place for teeth whitening ...?

I am getting my braces off after years of having them. I am looking to get my teeth whitened, i know this is an expensive procedure, but i am looking for a place that is not overpriced and still gives results. Somewhere in Northern New Jersey. Thank you!
--------------------
I have used whitening strips you buy at places like Walmart and they are around $50 dollars for a box of the whitening strips. It works amazing. My teeth are white and beautiful. I get compliments on them all the time. You just have to make sure you use them and not forget about them for a week. If you use them like the instructions tell you, it'll work well. I recommend it :)

help with teeth whitening?!?!?!?!?!?

is there any other household product you can use to whiten teeth? i ran out of baking soda... please don't say toothpaste either!! all answers appreciated! thanks!
--------------------
This will sound a little odd but using peroxide (the bubbly stuff you put on scraps) will do the trick but it might burn a little.

I Need Teeth Whitening Tips!?

I want to whiten my teeth and I'm open to homeopathic and over the counter/commercial solutions
--------------------
My mom's a dentist so PLEASE LISTEN TO ME when i say this DO NOT USE WHITENING TREATMENTS! all those do are break down the enamel on your teeth and make them weaker. This will make your teeth only white for a little while and VERY prone to cavities. TRUST ME! however, there is a solution, and if you stick with it, you should have white teeth in no time! all you have to do is start using toothpaste with baking soda in it. i use Arm & Hammer Peroxi-Care Fluoride Anti-Cavity Toothpaste. it has baking soda and peroxide in it. The fluoride prevents cavities and the peroxide whitens your teeth. TRUST ME! this is the best solution DO NOT go out to the store and buy a tube of toothpaste that says "WHITENING" on the front of it because it is NOT good for your teeth!

How long before dental bonding should I have my teeth whitened?

I'm getting a brite smile whitening but I heard that the color is unusually bright immediately afterwards and slowly settles to a more natural shade of white.
--------------------
i agree with 1st answer... 2 weeks or a bit longer is a good time to stop bleaching. make sure however that you get your teeth as white as you'll ever want them because once bonding is completed and matched, you are stuck at that shade. in order to change shades again, you'd have to redo all of the bonding which is risky and expensive.

tooth whitening products - Some way to tooth whitening products? any ideas?

I've been questioning myself about white teeth bleaching. Well I want to try crest whitening strips but I hear lots of people say its not good, is that true for white teeth bleaching? How can i get my teeth white?
--------------------
teeth whitening bleach? mix peroxide and baking soda together and brush for 3-5 minutes after ever meal as well as before you go to sleep. do this for a couple of months and you'll see your teeth slowly turning white. i tried this and i couldn't wait that long to see results so i tried a teeth whitening kit that i could take home. low and behold, i saw results a lot faster than i expected. i didn't have to spend over $500 to get my teeth whitened by the dentist, saved money with the free trial i found online that sent me the kit...life is great. i hope that helped guide you to the right 'teeth whitening bleach' direction.

Teeth whitening Question..?

I want to whiten my teeth but can't afford the professional treatments at the dentist. I've tried Crest Whitestrips but they make my gums hurt and the paste on the strips foam when it hits my gums, maybe I had a cut? It was excruciating pain. Anyway, I've done some research and it looks like brushing with hydrogen peroxide hurts the enamel and makes teeth prone to cavities. What else is there for me?
--------------------
APPLES, it takes a while but they work. Plus they're yummy. :P

there is a teeth whitening booth at the mall..?

and i was wondering, are the results good? they use a blue light, and i wanted to ask if the results were good cause I wanted to try it
--------------------
I just saw one of those teeth whitening booths at a mall in Indianapolis not too long ago. I'm not sure how much I would trust a dental booth in the middle of a mall. For one thing, it cost $119. Second of all, as I was walking by, I heard someone ask the person working there if they did before/after pictures to see the comparison and the person said no. In a regular dentist's office, I could understand that, but in a booth in a mall, I would think they would be eager to market their product if it's that good. Me personally, I would just rather stick to paying out a lot of money to a dentist to get them professionally done (at least then I know they will be done well) or go buy some white strips at a drug store than fork out $119 of money I don't have on a questionable product. Hope this helps.

your teeth probably don't whiten, but the tan sets them off and makes them seem whiter (kind of like when you wear darker lipstick your teeth look whiter)

Do strawberries actually whiten teeth?

I've heard people say mashing up starwberries and brushing with them or simply rubbing them on your teeth will whiten them. But is that really true? I mean, wouldn't that stain them red?
--------------------
Nope it wouldn't stain them, but it WILL wear away your enamel. (Which you can't 'grow' back) Don't brush with anything acidic , (lemon juice, strawberrys ect.) Try brushing with baking soda (it removes external stains)
