Can I Use Baking Soda to Whiten my Teeth?

I have braces (but on the inside of my teeth, the ones that the orthodontist puts on after you have your regular braces taken off), and i heard that baking soda can dissolve orthodontic glue?
--------------------
Never heard of baking soda dissolving orthodontic glue. Consult with your orthodontist before you whiten your teeth. They will tell you your best treatment options. I have been using crest vivid white toothpaste for about 7 years and it keep my teeth white.

Anyone try that neon light that you place in your mouth to whiten your teeth?

If yes, did it work and what was the name of it? Thanks so much.
--------------------
,That "Neon" light as you called it is actually a Laser type light and the usual procedure is for the dentist to apply a gel over the surface of the teeth and in most cases the laser light strongly activates a combination bleaching and oxygenation process....Since there are a number of brands of dental lasers used to whiten teeth I suggest you go on the Internet and type in Dental Laser Tooth Whitening...That should bring up a number to check out.

I have 2 porcelin veneers (upper front teeth) that are looking grey and ick...i want to get?

my teeth whitened but not sure if that will work witht he fake teeth ihave. My other teeth are actually white in pictures while the fake ones dont show up white and dont mathc colorwise...is there anythin i can do to fix this and make it look perfect?
--------------------
If you have two veneers that are discolored they may have decay starting under them, you need to see the dentist to have them checked. Bleaching will not effect the veneered teeth at all, you would need new veneers or crowns made to the new color. I would suggest having a full aesthetic work-up done with your dentist. Think about whitening prior to the new veneers, so they match the whitened color. If you want the "perfect" look you may consider having the veneers on most if not all of your upper anterior teeth. That way they all match for color and shape bringing a harmony to your smile. Good luck!

I need another method to help prevent plaque from forming on my teeth and a way to whiten my teeth fast?

I already brush my teeth twice a day and use mouth wash but the plaque keeps growing back no matter what
--------------------
There is no way that you can completely stop plaque. You can use toothpaste that slows it down a little but the best thing is to brush right after each meal. Be careful when you brush though, you don't want to damage your gums or you will have problems later. As for teeth whitening, unless you want to get it done professionally by a dentist, the Crest set that you buy for about $30 does well. You do have to be careful there too, follow the directions, you don't want to erode your enamel.

does anyone know what kind of toothpaste works better for whitening?

i really wanted to know because i bought some col-gate green mint toothpaste which said it has teeth whitening in it to make my teeth look whiter so i'm really wanting to know
--------------------
Any toothpaste brands that say they are ADA approved means that their statements have been tested by the ADA to prove that they are true. If one of those toothpastes says that they whiten teeth, then that is the best way to go. The thing is, toothpaste only removes surface stains. Teeth are naturally white underneath your enamel. If you see yellow that looks like it is under the white-looking enamel on your teeth, then that is perfectly normal. This yellowish substance is called dentin. It can be whitened through bleaching. This also dehydrates your dentin though, which is what gives it the white-looking appearance.

Whats the best way to whiten your teeth?

I see all these kits at the store. but they are outrageous...any ideas...home remedies perhaps
--------------------
i heard that strawberries are a natural teeth whitener. also paw paw is supposed to have similar effects. not sure how they are applied exactly but im sure you would use them with a toothbrush. natural whitening doesnt happen overnight so you would probably have to repeat regularly. good luck :)

what happens if i whiten my teeth twice a day instead of once?

i need my teeth whiter before halloween but we only have one kind of teeth whitener and it says that it gets whiter in 1 month and i cant wait that long :PP
--------------------
You'll be prone to sensitivity a lot quicker and probably a lot worse to your enamel. Which means you will start having problems eating cold food.

My teeth are not very white after Zoom! dental procedure! What to do?

I spent $600 in a dental office for Zoom! whitening procedure, and my teeth only whitened 4 shades (not very noticeable). I guess I was expecting them to be "paper white", so I'm very dissappointed, especially since I have never smoked, do not drink coffee or any kind of soda. Has anyone had a similar experience?
--------------------
Most likely, your teeth were already VERY white. Zoom works very well, it makes teeth several shades whiter. Depending on the cause of your stains, thickness of teeth, etc some people take more than 1 treatment. Sometimes they do 3 sessions, but it may just be in your head that they aren't that white. I had white teeth when I did Zoom so I only got 4 shades of whitening also.

What are the best kind of whitening strips?

I brush my teeth everyday and I still have some yellow on them, One of my friend's recommended whitening strips. I wanted to know what brand shows the best results so I dont waste my money!
--------------------
Any brand that has rubber/plastic TRAYS instead of strips. The strips are hard to apply, and don't distribute the product well enough. I cannot stress this enough. TRAYS TRAYS TRAYS.

Baking soda really whiten teeth??

I am tired of expensive teeth whitening products that barely work. I heard someone say that they used baking soda and water, made them into a paste, and let it soak on there teeth for a couple of minutes every day and it made them whiter. Im just wondering if anyone has tried this and what kind of results they got. Thanks!!
--------------------
Baking soda paste is a very, very old way of brushing teeth. It's gently abrasive so it does a good job of scrubbing off plaque, and the sodium content in it makes it mildly antibacterial. It also helps bring blood to the surface of the gums (but not make you bleed) to help fight off potential infections. I have applied baking soda pastes to mouth ulcers, too, to help kill the virus or whatever is causing it. While it does sting on those sores, it works wonders. I would say that the abrasiveness of it is what does the whitening.

I would like to know if anyone ever had thier teeth bleached @ home ?

I want to bleach my teeth because I quit smoking and would like my teeth to look better....is there anything out there comparable to when dentists do the teeth whitening? How about celebrity white? I
--------------------
I smoked a pack a day and drank 3 cups of coffee a day too. I did the dentist bleeching system and yes it worked but it was costly. 4 years later I bleeched my teeth at home for my wedding. I used Crest whitening strips and they looked just as good. I highly reccomend them. Only draw back is that they made my gums and teeth senstive.

teeth whitener - How do I obtain teeth whitener? im losing hope fast?

I'm looking for laser whitening suggestions. I want really white teeth and I have tried everything but nothing works! Any ideas regarding laser whitening?
--------------------
For the very best best teeth whitening solution, see your dentist. They will take impressions, fabricate custom bleaching trays and supply you with a solution. The huge downside to this is the high price. A simple alternative solution that can give you good results would be the whitening kits. My best friend ordered one online since his wife did it and now I'm using it. Talk about best teeth whitening! I saved money from the dentist and time avoiding the long wait for the baking soda and peroxide method to work.

Whiten Teeth At The Dentist?

I wanna whiten my teet at THE DENTIST, I've heard that they are unable to whiten the teeth if you should happen to have any cavities. I have two cavities,and would like to whiten the teeth AT THE DENTIST. Is there any other tooth whitening/bleaching than the crest strips? I prefer having it done,about how much $?
--------------------
Have you gone for a consultation at a dentist? You can get whitened if you have cavitites... just that if the filling is on your front teeth (or any very visible surface) it wont bleach like your natural enamal.
