just continue to brush your teeth several times a day. you can try using a whitening toothpaste (i use crest 3d vivid) but i wouldn't use any home remedies until you get your braces off.
hope this helps! :)
Answer by hallieeee
a very inexpensive one that i reccomend is BAKING SODA! i swear you have to try this, i do it all the time (well twice a week is all you can do) but you just get your tooth brush wet and plop on some baking soda just like you would toothpaste and just brush your teeth with it. its gonna taste weird and dont swallow it, but i PROMISE youll see results immediatly. my mom found out about it in this weird magazine and insisted i try it. its soo cool :D
and to the person below me, you must have REALLY sensitive teeth to only be using crest white strips once a year! i dont think that applys to everyone, and i def said dont use it every day, just once or twice a week. otherwise youll destroy the enamel on your teeth.

Answer by Soph_x
i had my teeth whitened, but i was certain that i wanted them to be effectively white, so i went through my dentist. I am 17 and live in the Uk... so if u r 16.. then u shud be able to get it done, if they say you must be 21 don't listen its rubbish. It cost me about 300 in total, but i noticed the result after just one day. i got it done nearly 2 years ago and they are still white... i highly recommend it. :)

Answer by trd
Hello I work in a dental office and the majority of patients who want to whitening have really white teeth to begin with.
If you go to an office to get whitening they have an in-office done in a couple of hours and it is the best. However it cost $ 300-600. Not really worth other than it is fast results that last longer. The results vary for every patient. If your teeth look yellow they will lighten but if your teeth look more grey or brown you won't get good results.
Most offices also offer trays custom made for your mouth and will run you about $ 200-350. You wear the trays, like a mouthguard, for an hour day to overnight. Most people think this isn't bad but then they never wear them.
You can try over the counter for probably about $ 60. If I was to whiten this would be what I would do, unless you want to waste your money and go for the inoffice. You can buy a lot of strips for $ 600. Becareful because it can get addictive and you can ruin your teeth. You can also ask your dental office if the have strips that you can buy, like crest or listerine strips. They will be a little stronger in the office than over the counter.
Answer by Elena
As long as you are brushing your teeth regularly you can use certain electric toothbrushes that have different heads that help whiten teeth or brush on paste. The risk with using the trays is that some of the products can cause extreme sensitivity. You can see a dentist and they will be able to tell you all the alternatives.
Answer by Masaki
Crest whitening strips. I believe you can get them for like 35 dollars at walmart or target. Also the new Crest 3D is pretty nice. Takes off surface stains in 14 days.
Answer by mary z
Use a combination of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to brush your teeth.
Answer by Sarah-Claire
I love the Crest Whitestrips! You are supposed to use them twice a day, once in the morning and then again in the evening. Just use them as the directions say. I use them for 2 weeks at a time to avoid sensitivity, then a month or two after that I start another two-week regimen.
I wear mine in the tanning bed, that way you know how long they have been on, and the UV light accelerates the whitening (make sure to smile!)
There are different types with different prices. They are pretty expensive, if I remember. But if you really want to whiten your teeth, I would spring for it. I think they are somewhere around 30 bucks.
Answer by Johna Krotov

It's a cosmetic procedure not covered by your health/dental plan. It usually runs about $ 400-500 for custom trays and the bleaching solution. Alternatively, you can ask about professional strength whitening strips which are only a little more expensive than the ones in the stores, but a higher strength. They may be willing to order them for you.

How do teeth whitening products work? Whitening the teeth with the use of proper teeth whitening products or teeth whitening kits is both effective and safe. It is because none of the good quality teeth whitening products damage the enamel. If you are really looking for teeth whitening, normal toothpaste probably isn't enough just by itself.

Answer by Sanda
You paid $ 200 just for bleaching trays ??? You got ripped off !
Do yourself a favor and don't waste any money on bleaching products for your teeth. The over the counter stuff is not strong enough. Go to a dentist if you have to bleach your teeth. Keep in mind that crowns, caps, fillings and other dental work will stay the same color, they will not become lighter.
Look, people don't know that teeth are living organs (having blood vessels and nerves), they're not just pieces of bone stuck in your gums... The colour of the tooth comes from within (the dentin), the enamel is the outer layer that covers the dental crown and protects it. The bleaching affects the enamel creating the temporary illusion of "whiter teeth". Ever wondered why you need to bleach AGAIN ?
Oh, let's mention the hypersensitivity you're left with after bleaching, and doesn't always go away...
Working in a dental office I could have this (bleaching) done for free (zero, zip, zilch, nada) but I choose not to do it !...If people only knew...

Answer by Lyds
If you want to make your teeth straight you have to visit a orthodontist. They will give you braces and other stuff to make then straight. To get them white you can visit a regular dentist and they can whiten them. Usually insurance will pay some of the cost but if you don't have a good insurance then they might not. braces may cost over 1000 dollars depending on how bad your teeth are. ( hope this information helped you) good luck!

Answer by Antoine
,
Be careful because brushing your teeth with baking soda more than once a week can cause serious damage to your teeth enamel. You might want to use whitestrips or an actual teeth whitening treatment instead. I found some free trials that I posted on my blog that work great. You can see how much of a difference they made on my teeth.
Answer by RDH
This question is a perfect example of why it is not possible to quote prices for dental treatments. The price ranges from free to $ 1000 for various methods of bleaching and is dependent on different circumstances.
Of course you want to know about free. In my office, we provide free bleaching trays and materials when final records are done for orthodontic patients. So really, bleaching is included with the orthodontic treatment.
For regular patients in the office, the same procedure is $ 90. For someone who walks in off the street and is not a patient. it is $ 200. If you want the one hour treatment, Zoom bleaching plus trays for home after, that can run up to $ 1000. Many offices in my area are about $ 200 for the regular tray and home system. Downtown fees are about $ 400.
Doesn't this confuse you even more?

I know you said you used the strips but did you try Crest White Strips? They worked for me but you have to use them everynight for whatever time period they tell you to use them. If that really didn't work for you then I don't know what else to tell you. If you drink a lot of soda, coffee, tea, etc. try just drinking water because the other stuff stains your teeth. Brush your teeth with a teeth whitening toothpaste. Hope that helps!

Gee. Coincidentally, your question can somehow be answered by a top something in Yahoo! homepage. If you go there now it might still be there XD>
But in case you read this late, then I remember they said something about positioning your toothbrush at a 45 degree angle and making little circles around your teeth. I mean, yeah, picture it out, it's hard to describe XDD. But anyways, it was also said that although whitening pastes/gels work to some degree, a pea-sized amount is as effective as a long tube of paste on your toothbrush.
And brush your teeth for at least two minutes, and every after meal.
And avoid candies, too. XDD

Answer by cannonbolt
The trays will effect the gums more than white strips because the gel that goes into them will have more contact with the gums. The white strips are the best method without seeing a dentist.
Other than that, whitening toothpaste and using baking soda when you brush can help. The baking soda method i wouldnt do more than a few times a week because it can be abrasive on the teeth.
Im using crest white strips advanced seal and they work pretty good.

Here you go, mix a paste of baking soda and peroxide, and brush your teeth with it. Mix it in the palm of your hand, and scrape your toothbrush through it. Gonna cost you less than a dollar each for baking soda, and for peroxide, and it will last a long time. The dentist isn't going to tell you that, because it would put him out of the teeth whitening business!! You already know how expensive that is!
Answer by lynzy_k
at home bleaching trays will white your teeth anywhere from 2-5 shades depending on which brand you purchase. Crest Whitestrips do a good job. But for SUPER white, visit your dentist. It will cost you, but the end result can white up to 9 shades and it lasts 4-5 yrs.

Answer by Dr. Carl
Hi,
Lot of people do face problems with yellow teeth. The reason for yellow teeth can be less calcium, smoking or coffee. Some people face problems like yellow to faint yellow teeth also because of too much brushing or using products which harm teeth. While baking soda or peroxide can make your teeth white but it is not recommended. Dentists world over do not recommend use of such pure form substances on teeth as they harm your teeth in longer run.
Not all whitening trays are good, in fact many people have complained about irritation and pain with trays. Yellow teeth are not always unhealthy while bright white teeth can be unhealthy. Lot of people want white teeth so that they can smile big and don't get embarrassed while talking to friends and colleagues. Such people can use teeth whitening pens which are 100% safe for your teeth. The best thing about these products is that you can easily get free trial to have white teeth. You may order your free trials and have white teeth. Its always better to try before you buy and I am sure it will work for everyone including you.
BTW the website where you can get such free samples is http://tinyurl.com/freewhiteteeth
I am not promoting the website nor am I associated with it in any manner. Just trying to help someone who is worried about bad/yellow teeth.
Hope this helps.

Answer by lisaasia
The cost depends on your choice of dentist, so ask when you call to make an appointment. If it fits your budget it's worth it, and if your dentist does a good job, your teeth will look very white not ghoulish. Again, it's best to have whitening done professionally, but it's more expensive than using white strips.

Answer by Bassets4Life
The best way to whiten one's teeth is to do it professionally this way the results will be far safer and more pronounced then if one were to use a generic teeth whitening product like Crest White Strips.
The reasoning behind this is that if you go to a dentist and get your teeth professionally whitened, you are doing this in a controlled manner. You are given usually two carpules of whitening gel to start with, usually carbomide peroxide which is at a higher percentage of peroxide then that of Crest White strips etc. and the whitening is controlled by that of your dentist, so therefore you are not damaging your teeth by whitening too frequently, leaving the trays in for too long etc.
When you use a product like Crest White strips you are at your own mercy. I have used both professional whitening products and have used Crest White strips and the differences were quite noticeable. After using Crest White strips Premium, I had quite significant sensitivity to colds. Even breathing in air caused my teeth to hurt and the results were not that great. As well with Crest White strips it is really hard to keep the lower strip onto your teeth without your saliva washing some off, you accidentally ingesting it etc. It tastes really gross, not to mention excess swallowing of peroxide gel can cause you to have a sore throat and possibly become sick. Hence is why I don't recommend drugstore whitening kits.
With a professional tooth whitening system such as Opalescence Xtra Boost Whitening System, you actually get a custom made tray made to specifically fit your teeth. This way you don't accidentally ingest any of the whitening gel, and you are able to wear the whitening trays without having to worry about your saliva getting in the way.
A dentist/dental assistant will take a alginate impression of your teeth, then will pour up a stone model of your teeth. They will then take a vacuum former and seal this over the stone model creating a tray, they will cut it, smooth it out and you have your tray.
I would highly suggest the Opalescence whitening system, as I have tried it myself and the results were great, no sensitivity to cold afterwards and no ingesting of the peroxie. The key with this product though is using it sparingly and giving yourself time between applications as it has a higher percentage of peroxide than that of Crest White strips therefore you can damage your teeth if not monitored.
Average prices for this product are $ 250 to $ 500 and the prices don't include alginate impressions, study model and whitening tray. However, this is FAR more pricier than Crest White strips, $ 50 for Crest White Strips Premium, I think you will get far better results and be more pleased with the Opalescence.
I DO not however recommend the Zoom whitening as it can be very damaging and painful to teeth.

I got quoted around 200 dollars but there are different procedures depending on the type of staining, the type of treatment they use, where you live, etc.
Insurance will NOT cover it because it is a cosmetic procedure.
Safe... ehhh some say it is, some say it isn't, generally yes if you get it done at the dentist, but it can weaken your enamel.
Mix baking soda with peroxide.. You can get a small box of baking soda for under a dollar and a small bottle of hydrogen peroxide for the same. Mix it into a paste (or just dip your brush in the peroxide and then in the baking soda ) and brush with it. DONT swallow it, then brush your teeth normally. It won't make your teeth sensitive like some other whiteners, and it's cheap, but don't do it more than once or twice a week (don't do it every day) as it really just removes stains and once they're gone, they're gone, you can't really get much whiter.
Remember teeth aren't naturally white, they're off white, so you can't really get them WHITE without damaging them. People you see with super white teeth... They're teeth are actually very unhealthy. Good luck!

Answer by Gayle
You could try vinegar in toothpaste but you won't get dramatic results. But it's inexpensive. So is baking soda but I've used baking soda by itself and in various toothpastes and they don't really whiten teeth too much. Or at least not mine. The best thing I have found and am currently using is Crest Advanced Seal Whitening Strips. You get two weeks worth for around 44.00. That still is much cheaper than going to a dentist. And the best part is that it really works! I love them. They stick very well to your teeth (they come with an adhesive built into the strip) and I saw results after 3 or 4 days. I'm on my second box and am really well pleased with the results. Hope this helps.

Answer by Slyvia
Brush your teeth with baking soda and peroxide or a whitening toothpaste recommended by your dentist. Many name-brand toothpastes now contain baking soda to help remove surface stains from coffee, tea, and soda, and many bleaching systems contain hydrogen peroxide to help users make their teeth whiter. Dip your toothbrush in a small amount of peroxide and then dip it into the baking soda. Brush your teeth for at least two minutes and rinse your mouth well. Brush your teeth using your regular toothpaste for at least 30 seconds afterward. While this method is very effective in helping most people achieve a whiter smile, you should only use it once or twice a week to prevent tooth sensitivity.
Step
2Eat plenty of strawberries. Strawberries contain malic acid, a natural bleaching agent that may be just as effective as name brand teeth-whiteners. You can even mash a strawberry and apply it directly to your teeth to brighten your smile gently and effectively.
Step
3Try rubbing a ripe banana peel on your teeth every day. Simply use the inside of a banana peel to massage your teeth for at least two minutes before brushing. You should see a stunning improvement in your smile in as little as two weeks.
Step
4Use a whitening mouthwash to get whiter teeth and kill bacteria in the mouth. Whitening mouthwashes work well for removing surface stains on the areas of your teeth that are hard to reach with a toothbrush or dental floss. Swish the liquid in your mouth for at least 60 seconds twice daily to make your teeth whiter and improve your smile.
Step
5Avoid using products that make your teeth whiter but create long-term problems. Many household products have received acclaim on the Internet for producing bright smiles, but most dentists don't agree with the claims. Brushing your teeth in lemon or lime juice, salt brine or household bleach will whiten your teeth, but the results are only temporary and they come at a high cost.
Lemon juice, lime juice and bleach can wear away the enamel of the teeth and expose the yellow dentin beneath, while salt brine destroys the delicate tissue of the gums, which can cause your teeth to become dislodged and fall out. If you're unsure about the safety of teeth-whitening products, talk to your dentist.

Laser is done by a dentist who applies a 35% Hydrogen Peroxide solution on your teeth. Once this solution is on, a light is held a couple of inches away from your teeth to speed up the chemical reaction of the Hydrogen Peroxide. Many dentist advertise that this works better than tray type whitening. That has not been our experience. There is NO clinical data to indicate the laser whitening works any better than tray whitening. NONE! This procedure costs $ 500 plus. The problem with this procedure is that after a year of your normal eating habits (drinking coke, tea, coffee, etc.) your teeth become slightly discolored again and develops a new stain. With the laser whitening, you will have to go and pay $ 500 plus to have white teeth again. With the custom mouthpieces, you already have the custom mouthpieces that you can wear a year later for a night to take off the new stain at no cost.
There is usually some pain after teeth bleaching. You might try "deep bleaching". It is less painful I left a link below for dentist who perform the service

Answer by Sheree
Crowns are anywhere from $ 600 to $ 2000 depending on the dentist and where they practice.
If you had a root canal it is not considered cosmetic. Your insurance should pay something, you can have a pre determination of benefits, the dentist submits to the insurance company so you know before the procedure is done how much you will have to pay out of pocket.
You need to have a crown because the tooth gets brittle after a root canal and has a greater chance of fracturing. If you wait and the tooth breaks it will cost even more to fix.
The dentist will match the color to the other teeth it should blend in nicely.

Wow sounds like your on a great road healthwise for avoiding all those caffeine products, not to mention smoking! People dont realize how bad caffeine can really be for you.
If you really want to do it in the dentist's office, id go with the BriteSmile system; however, if your short on money, at home treatments can really do the trick. I use the colgate simply white brush on gel every day and I ALWAYS get comments on how white my teeth are! (and unlike you, im always drinking cola!)
Good luck on whatever you choose to do, and props to you for being so healthy!

Answer by Cukus
Due to personal experience the best teeth whitening product by far is called Idol White, its a newish one and has been on the market only a few months but its done wonders for me and my wife. Im an ex smoker and used to enjoy alot of sweets and chocolate so my teeth were very stained and yellow, especially all that coffee at well didnt help.
Anyway i came across a free trial of idol white so it saved me some money, all i had to do was pay shipping and handling. I gave it a try and it was awesome, mine and my wifes teeth are lovely and white and those ex smokers stains are now gone and i now feel much more confident about smiling in public.
If you want to try the same free trial as me then click here http://choprz.com/43939/

Well they have whitening mouthwash that you could start using now that works well. It's not too expensive and works. There are crest white strips that work really well, but they are kinda spendy.
Answer by Vamine
White strips usually work great but can be a little messy and nasty tasting. Another option would be to go to the dentist and have them bleached, this can get a little pricy though.

crest pro whitening strips (advanced) they gave great results!:D i have whiiiiite teeth now i always get compliments,, umm you can get em at walmart for like 35 bux-ish
Answer by First L
No, tooth whitening would NOT help in this case, The discoloration is WAY too deep inside the structure of the tooth. The best thing would be to get porcelain veneers made by your dentist. It involves little if any grinding of the tooth itself, and the results look extremely natural. It is not cheap, however, but it is significantly cheaper than getting crowns, and does not permanently damage the tooth like a crown would.

Answer by Kristennn
GHet Crest whitening strips.
The one in the dark blue box that says "Pro effects"
not the Premium health kind.
You'll find it at your regular Walmart, and it's cheap.
I use it twice everyday for a week, take a break, then do it again.
The results are amazing.
You can really tell it whitens them..
But it will make them sensitive :(

Use Crest Whitening Strips because most people recommend that product, and because it helps whiten the teeth.
Answer by antonio andolini
Keep teeth white with Crest whitening strips. Keep teeth straight by going to the orthodontist. Shouldn't be avoided. Keep breath fresh by scraping sulfur compounds off tongue, floss teeth after every meal to get rid of rotting pieces of food. Use mouth wash at least once a day. Don't avoid the dentist.

Hygienists do not make your teeth whiter. They clean your teeth of plaque and calculi which are difficult to remove by brushing (especially between teeth and under the gums). For whitening the teeth, you will have to consult the dentist who may give you various options.
