How can I make my teeth look whiter?

Question by ashlee_mcholland19: How can I make my teeth look whiter?
I don't want to use whitening treys unless that's all there is. A friend told me baking soda helps get rid of stains on teeth so they look whiter as well as peroxide, is that true?
What else gets rid of teeth stains and plaque other than whitening toothpaste?


Best answer:

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.

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.

How much do crest white strips cost?

Question by : How much do crest white strips cost?
A few questions also:

1) Do they work?
2) Can I use them for about a week or two until my teeth are white and then stop and just continue brushing regularly or do I have to keep using them?
3) Did they make your teeth very sensitive?
4) How much are they and are they a good investment?
5) For people who have used them, any advice or anything you want to share?


Best answer:

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.

I eat a bit too much candy (Oops! I know it's bad for me :/ and my teeth) and so my teeth are quite yellow. I do brush my teeth every morning and night, but I don't really floss because I have braces.

Where is the best place to purchase a professional quality teeth whitening kit from on the Internet?

Question by Dale in VA: Where is the best place to purchase a professional quality teeth whitening kit from on the Internet?
I'm looking for a teeth whitening kit that utilizes lab-created bleaching trays and 22% carbamide peroxide gel. I would like for the price to be around $ 100 if possible. It is also important that it be a reputable online dealer and not some "fly-by-night" reseller. I'm hoping someone, on Yahoo Answers, that has already had a good experience purchasing/using a teeth whitening system from the Internet will point me in the right direction.

In Ontario, what is the average cost of getting teeth whitened?

Question by Shika: In Ontario, what is the average cost of getting teeth whitened?
After I get my braces removed, I plan on getting my teeth whitened. What is the average cost of having this procedure performed? Is there any chance it might be covered by my health plan?


Best answer:

Answer by LaLa
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.

What teeth whitening product would you recommend?

Question by : What teeth whitening product would you recommend?
I will be getting braces off soon and have had them on for a solid 3 years. I really need a very effective teeth whitening product, over the counter. Any ideas? Thanks!


Best answer:

Answer by shelba
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.

What is a good teeth whitening system that can be bought online?

What is a good teeth whitening system that can be bought online?
I got trays made a couple of years ago and went through a bleaching system, kind of half way. I'm wondering what a recommended brand of bleach or peroxide is. I paid like $ 200.00 for the trays and kind of wanted to get something stronger than Crest or an over the counter, any suggestions


Best answer:

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...

How much does cosmetic dental work typically cost?

Question by Terry: How much does cosmetic dental work typically cost?
This would include straightening the teeth and making them white.

Have you had work done? If so, what did they do, and how much did it cost? Did your insurance pay for it?


Best answer:

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!

The dentist can make trays for your teeth and you sleep with the solution on - takes 14 days and they'll be whiter than a sheet of paper. Well worth the $ $ money - costs about $ 250.

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.

Best answer:

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?
