Best way to whiten teeth? whitening products, do they hurt?!


Question: What are some really good teeth whitening products I can use? Also, I have one tooth that's out of alignment and starting to get hidden behind on of the other teeth (hopefully I can get Invisline braces after I graduate college) so would the strips kind still work alright on that tooth? Or should I get paste or gel kind?

And i've heard these products can make teeth sensitive..is this just temporary, or can it be damaging?

And does using baking soda really help? Baking soda toothpaste doesn't do crap, but how about straight baking soda?

I am currently using Rembrandt's Professional White. It is a gel that you leave on your teeth for twenty minutes max every night. It isn't awful at all and I have had no side effects.

As for the braces, I am a college student and have been wearing invisalign for almost a year now. There are not noticeable and for small changes like just one tooth out of line it is a simple task.

Also if you do end up getting invisalign, they work as whitening trays. Every night I just put the rembrandt whitening gel into my liners and leave it in overnight. In the morning it rinses out fine and I straightened and whitened my teeth all at the same time.

scrub your teeth hard...................

-rick

alot of celebs rubs strawberries

I used the Crest Pro-Whitening Strips, they worked pretty good, took about a week to notice a difference. Afterword I brushed my teeth at least twice a day and they have never looked whiter since!

P.S. I used them like 3 years ago, so I'm probably out-dated. Brushing your teeth helps! And no the strips didn't hurt. Just a bit annoying when they slipped off my teeth and I had to put them back on.

bleach

mix peroxide and baking soda and it turns into a paste.
brush it on your teeth every morning and night.
it works really goood.

i used crest it really whitened my teeth lol . not kidding

that tooth paste with cyrstals
brush your teeth more often
whitening strips. idk if they work good.
i would try straight baking soda, because just get it wet than brush your teeth. thats how they used to do it.
and try not to chew colored gum, cause that can leave marks.
and mouth wash more than once.
or brush twice, but not to much cause u want enamel

i used crest whitestrips last february and while they do work really well, i have had a LOT of sporadic tooth sensitivity even to this day. the effects are just starting to wear off, so they do work, but the tooth sensitivity is a bit of a pain. it doesnt happen often but when it does it is quite uncomfortable. ;/

Mouthwash maybe?

-whiting gels or strips...like crest or listerine
-stirps would work fine, but i think the gel would be better
-it makes your teeth sensitive if you leave them on too long
-don't use strait up bakingsoda, mix it with peroxide

-i hear rubbing your teeth with a strawberry whitens teeth too....i've personally never tried it, but it was on the tyra show(don't even know why i was watching it in the first place)

Okay....

I would suggest getting your teeth cleaned first by your dentist, then follow these procedures to keep your teeth white.

1.) Floss thoroughly.
2.) Brush teeth for 2 minutes at least.
3.) Gargle with Listerine.

Then once a week, use a whitening gel that you can apply in strips to your mouth, and let it sit there for 30 minutes.

Baking Soda is a bad idea, I wouldn't suggest it. Crest or Listerine brands (whitening strips) are fine for whitening teeth, just don't leave them in long.

By doing this, you don't damage your teeth and increase the health and strength while giving yourself a great shine. :) Hope that helps you out. Remember that your local dentist can give you further advice!

Baking soda (pure) really does work. It gives the feeling like you have just had a cleaning because of the mild abrasive, but is safe for teeth.

The strips would work okay, for your other teeth, but if that one tooth is badly aligned, you may want to try the gel.

They can definitely make the teeth sensitive after the first few applications.

I would rather have the dentist do it. But if you're close to graduating college like a year then I would wait because they got to put this glue stuff on your teeth to make the braces stick which will be a waste of money if you whitened your teeth from a dentist. So in my opinion I rather have a professional do it. You get to pick how white you want it and it last longer.

wouldn't go for the baking soda
I used the crest whitestrips and they worked amazingly
the sensitivity is just temporary and its not much its just a bit tingly, once your done with the treatment your teeth feel normal.
And i think the strips would work best on your tooth otherwise you have to get those trays and i dont know about them.

My favorite are Rembrant Whitening strips. They aren't as awful tasting as Crest's are. My teeth are pretty sensitive so after the full week of using them, the teeth get even more sensitive but it wears of after a day. Also Rembrant's strips stay in place much better than crest's do, which is why I like them better.
