Sunshine3 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Crest Whitening strips work! I used them for 2 weeks and I saw a HUGE improvement. I drink tea everyday and my teeth became stained....the whitening strips took virtually all the stains off and whitened my teeth. Make sure you floss everyday. Link to comment

afonselaca Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 This works for me link removed The mouthwash also works fabulously for bleeding gums. I can't remember which product comes with a little brush that you can gently use on the surface of your teeth. I'm sure if you inquire they'll also give you result studies on their product trials.

CarnelianButterfly Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Some people don't have white teeth. The ads show insane white as being some possible standard, but in reality teeth enamel and bone aren't naturally white, its slightly off white. Whitening agents do more harm than good in most cases, they are abrasive and can cause damage to the tooth enamel. Two months won't erase years of mistreatment, it will take a long time of good care and most likely professional cleaning to safely remove build up. Link to comment

laboheme Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 If you are really concerned about the color of your teeth, you could consult your dentist. Oftentimes they can whiten your teeth, or at least prescribe something potent for that (however, insurance probably won't cover the procedure or the prescription). But if it's not that severe, then yes, Crest Whitestrips. I'm sure they will have something similar where you are, even if it's not the same brand. And avoid staining foods and drinks, like coffee and dark soda...They really do affect the color of your teeth! (Especially if you have them right after you use any kind of whitening treatment) Link to comment
Day_Walker Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 This was published in a dental journal a short while ago and one of the most effective methods of whitening your teeth is to brush with Hydrogen Peroxide atleast once a day. The results arent quick but over time you will see improvement plus this is extremely cheap to do because Hydrogen Peroxide is extremely cheap. simply dip your tooth brush in it and then brush your teeth.

I gargle with it and i've seen an improvement. plus, it helps with those nasty canker sores that hurt so badly on my tongue. Link to comment
Zaphod Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 You lot gargle and brush your teeth with hydrogen peroxide? I was gonna make a joke about Domestos bleach, but turns out it wouldn't have been so much of a joke And yeah teeth are off white. If you get your teeth whitened it looks obviously fake, a bit like a boob job. I suppose you could try the UV treatment at the Dentist but again - it'll look silly like your teeth are flourescent white or something. Don't smile in the dark is all I can say Link to comment

Just get a scale and polish at the dentist. Link to comment
rocio Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 You didn't used to brush your teeth? Like ever? Ew! Sorry. You shouldn't floss twice a day. Just once is enough. Brush 3 times every day and use listerine mouthwash as well. Also, go see a dentist and get a check-up and cleaning. Those things won't make your teeth more white, but they are absolutely essential to your health. Think of how sexy you would look with rotten teeth. As far as getting your teeth white, I would recommend doing it professionally through your dentist. It's expensive. Here it costs about $300 Canadian. But so, so worth it. Link to comment
Sunshine3 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I love to floss!! I make it fun for myself....knowing that Im getting all that plaque off my teeth is great! Put on your headphones....brush for a whole song and floss with music on ....it works! Link to comment
