Teeth Whitening?
What's a good way you can whiten your teeth in about one day?
--------------------
Other than an in office procedure you wont' get a considerable result in one day....but, overall I would say that most of my patient's have had some measure of success with the Crest Whitestrips, some more than others. Our office uses the Supreme which are 4 times stronger than what you can get in the store, but the others will work as well but take more time and possibly more than one kit.The results are usually pretty quick, noticeable in the first few days, best in a week or longer.If you can, do yourself the favor of using them right after you get your teeth cleaned as any staining and buildup (tartar, plaque, or orthodontic cement) will impede their ability to work. Also, don't use fluoride toothpaste before putting the strips on (same reason). All of the methods (strips, trays, custom trays, in office whitening) have the potential to make your teeth temporarily sensitive, but will not harm the enamel. If you get sensitive use the product every other day in conjunction with a sensitive tooth toothpaste. You might try to drink dark liquids through a straw and don't smoke. Most whitening toothpastes just remove stain on the surfaces of your teeth and therefore are not so effective. Whatever method you use it will not whiten your teeth for life, as you age your teeth will get darker and may need to be whitened again. Good luck! JAMRDH - a dental hygienist

At-home teeth whitening help!?
I just got invited to go to a Mardi Gras ball on February 18, and I want my teeth to be pretty. I can't afford to go to a dentist for professional whitening, so I was wondering if anyone had any idea which of the over-the-counter whitening strips/products would work the best and fastest, because I have less than 2 weeks! Thanks in advance for your time!
--------------------
Avoid coffee, tea, smoking and yes, store whitening products work... most have an active ingredient of h2o2 (hydrogen peroxide) and baking soda. If you want fast results brush teeth with baking soda and a 50/50 mixture of h2o2 and h2o..... taste like dung, but your not swallowing the stuff. just dip brush in solution and dust bristles lightly with baking soda and scrub away!!! P.S. using a 50/50 solution of h2o2 and h2o makes a very hygienic mouth.... kills more germs than scope or Listerine! (according to microbiology)

i need a good teeth whitening kit. i tried crest whitestrips advanced and they did nothing, what a waste of time and money. is there anyone that has tried something that REALLY works? i dont have bad yellow stains really but they arent nice and white...

You could always have a dentist professionally whiten them. It's expensive but it does work.

Safe Teeth Whitening?
I drink a lot of Pepsi so my teeth are stained. I want a solution that is fairly inexpensive and is safe. It wouldn't hurt if it was quick to. I have heard that poroxide works, but I have also heard that it is pretty dangerous. Do yall have any safe at home teeth whitening recipes?
--------------------
peroxide is only dangerous if swallowed, swish it around in your mouth everyday for 10 minutes and spit. also you can try crest whitening strips, they are fairly inexpensive and produce good results.
