I broke my teeth about 3 or 4 years ago and I was wondering if I whiten my teeth by white strips if it will not whiten the fake part of my tooth. Please help and next time i go to the dentist i will ask her but i was just wondering if any of you who have broken your teeth and tried to whiten them what happened. Do you recommend anything? What will happen?
--------------------
No - the fake tooth will not change colors. No matter what you do!

Whitening teeth. Please help?
I am just wondering if anyone knows any good brands that whiten teeth really well. Thank you.

The new Crest Advanced Seal are very good.. there are cheaper ones but they don't stick to your teeth very well. The CAS stay on great and you can drink water easily or talk without risking them coming off. I just started using them- i used crest advanced (not seal) before and they whitened fine but were a pain to keep in place. My teeth went up several shades.

Does hydrogen Peroxide whiten teeth? I have heard it can, but is this safe for your gums and teeth?
I need my teeth whitened by next weekend.If this is not safe nor does it work please suggest what works and is fast and cheap.Under $20 preferably
--------------------
This is very unhealthy. It kills tissue, thats why it bubbles up like that, it likes to kill RBC. Nothing works that fast unless you it's done by a dentist.

10 pts - Homemade ways of whitening teeth?
i don't need to see a dentist, but i also don't want to buy products like whitening strips because they can get expensive. any suggestions on what works? thanks :)

Here are some home remedies for whiter teeth: Home Remedies In most cases, cheap toothpaste doesn't cut it. An expensive toothpaste is often needed for a brighter smile. Unfortunately, getting your teeth whitened professionally is not an option for everyone. If you want to forego the creams, bleaches, trays, and gels found in drugstores, you can take the natural approach and use any of the following home remedies for whiter teeth that are both cheap and effective. Baking Soda: An old-time favorite, baking soda has many purposes, including tooth whitening. Most dentists agree that it's safe to use and works fairly quickly. You can use it alone on a damp toothbrush or mix it with toothpaste to help neutralize the salty taste. Hydrogen Peroxide: One of the most popular home remedies, peroxide, is cheap and most people have it on hand. Chances are, you will feel some burning in your gums, but you'll be left with clean, whiter teeth. Typically, most people will see results within a couple of weeks but it can happen much sooner. It's also safe to gargle, but don't swallow. Brush your teeth as you normally do, and then swish for about a minute. Follow up by spitting it out and rinsing thoroughly with water. Another way to use it is by dipping a cotton swap in the solution and gently rubbing it into your teeth, front and back. Strawberries: Not many people are aware that strawberries contain natural teeth whitening agents and the seeds work great for cleaning. Since they also contain sugar and acids, it's important to brush immediately afterwards with a fluoride toothpaste. For easy and quick application, you can either rub the strawberry against your teeth, or mash it up and use it like toothpaste. Wood Ash: Strange as it may sound, hard wood ash helps whiten teeth. It contains potassium hydroxide, a compound that will bleach your teeth. The tiny crystals scrape off plague in hard to reach places and will scrub them clean. However, using wood ash often or scrubbing too hard can wear down your tooth enamel, so it's best to avoid using it for long periods of time. To apply it to your teeth, you can put it directly on your toothbrush or mix it with a small amount of toothpaste. Homemade tooth paste: One of the better home recipes for whiter teeth is a paste consisting of baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, table salt and a dab of toothpaste. Mix it all together and brush away stains. More Options for Whiter Teeth You can combine any of the above ingredients with wood ash, strawberries, hydrogen peroxide or baking soda for some extra whitening power. Always clean the ingredients off of your teeth when you're finished by rinsing and brushing with commercial toothpaste. Remember that teeth naturally have a yellowish tint because of calcium, an essential mineral for strong tooth enamel. Brushing too hard and using lemon juice, an acid, or any form of vitamin C will eat away the surface. Once your tooth enamel is ruined, it's permanent. Your teeth will be considerably weaker and much more prone to cavities and sensitivity. All home remedies should be used in moderation and monitored closely.

Can homemade teeth whitening toothpaste be ...?
harmful to your gums? I read about making a toothpaste of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda, I've only used it once and I know not to use it more than once a week but does anyone know if it can be harmful? and does anything else work besides the expensive kits?

Stores such as Family Dollar sell generic pre brush whitener(works well) most of these products contain peroxide.Certain Toothhpaste contains baking soda and peroxide which my dentist says if safe.
