Question:
What's the best product for whitening your teeth?
If anyone has used any products that have made a huge difference please let me know! a.k.a. the strips, toothpaste, swish etc.
Answers:
Overall I would say that most of my patient's have had some measure of success with the Crest Whitestrips, some more than others. My Mother in Law's teeth look fabulous! Our office uses Crest Supreme which are much stronger than what you can buy in a drugstore and don't cost that much more ($60.00). You can purchase the drugstore version, but do yourself of using them right after you get your teeth cleaned as any staining and buildup (tartar or plaque) will impede their ability to work. Also, don't use fluoride toothpaste before putting the strips on (same reason). The strips are probably your best low price alternative, much less than in office whitening or custom trays (about $500.00). Most whitening toothpastes just remove stain on the surfaces of your teeth. Also, 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!
