How to get rid of yellow spot on front tooth?

I have this little yellow spot on my front tooth. What is the best way to get rid of it?

How to get rid of yellow spot on front tooth?
use peroxide i did
Reply:Have you had it checked to determine if it is decay? If not, you may need a filling.





If it is not decay, sometimes whitening your teeth could help. Or, you may need veneers or a crown. It all depends on the situation.





Not much help, but without seeing the spot it is hard to tell you here. Good luck!

Anything cheap everyday thing in the house that can help me whiten teeth?

I read that baking soda works but i'm worried it may have side effects such as tartar build up and such. What else besides baking soda?I need to whiten my teeth FAST. I used to smoke but I quit just a few months ago and now my teeth are yellow.I'd like a cheap way to remove the stains

Anything cheap everyday thing in the house that can help me whiten teeth?
Hydrogen peroxide.


Dilute 1 part HP to 4 parts water and gargle.


My dentist suggested this as a mouthwash instead of over the counter mouthwashes which he said contain way too much sugars.


Good for fresh breathe but lousy for teeth.





It doesn't taste as nice and gets a little frothy in the mouth but its a great antiseptic and whitener.


Plus a bottle costs about $1.20 from the drugstore and will last you a couple of months.


Cheers
Reply:Yes bicarb of soda will help, they put it in most teeth whitener solutions/pastes. I wouldnt recommend using that on its own i dont imagine it would taste very nice........
Reply:bicarb of soda or a dentist
Reply:My friend used AJACKS, Yes, it is a cleaing agent. She used a little on her tooth brush and a LOT of water. I tryed it , makes you want to vomit but its gets them a whiter from when you started.
Reply:crest whitestrips. They arent that expensive and they DO work.
Reply:Charcoal powder rub on front teeth with fingers ( grandpa's method)
Reply:use common salt twice a day, and after every two/three days fresh lime peel (squeezed out skin) use the inner side, still faster is asking dentist to polish the teeth... he will require 2-3 sittings, hope your teeth are strong to with stand mild vibration

my teeth are yellow with very white spots and a tiny tiny gapish thing

Ok i have white spots on my teeth and i dont no what to do please help me do i need braces at all?
First of all you need to brush your teeth 2 times aday. That is a must. Then you must see a dentist. Oral hygeine is very important for your over all health. If you don't take care of your teeth you will lose them. Use some baking soda mixed into tooth paste and brush with a soft tooth brush. You may have already lost bone witch will be painful and the line.





Call your dentist.
Reply:Some say salt or even pepper to brush your teeth ... don't do it.


Also do not waste money on toothpaste that is very expensive it does not work.. the only thing I guess that works is some equipement at the dentist but I don't know.
Reply:sounds like enamel hypoplasia.- a defect in the outer layer of your teeth.


common in sydney


they can be resurfaced by your dentist

What should you do if you don't have white teeth?

i brush my teeth daily, with listerine, flossing....... but my teeth is yellow. what should i do?

What should you do if you don't have white teeth?
Rembrandt is a great whitening tooth paste, it costs a bit extra, but it works well, and/or try the crest or colgate whitening strips. oh, and if you smoke or drink lots of sodas/coffee/tea, you might want to cut down or quit altogether, that stuff is hard on the teeth and causes your teeth to be yellow/stained too.

Is this why the British have bad teeth?

Is this the reason why their teeth are yellow and generally in bad shape...





http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/afp/britain_h...

Is this why the British have bad teeth?
Years ago when I took microbiology I learned about the bacteria that causes cavities. There is the "bad" bacteria that causes the cavities, and there is the "good" bacteria actually helps prevent destruction of the tooth. From what I understand, certain populations have a higher bacterial count of the bad bacteria, or lower of the good. I cannot find a webpage that will back this up, but that is what I can remember from class.

Any ways to help make your teeth whiter?

no matter how much i brush my teeth stay yellow. Any advice on how to make them whiter without buying whitener?

Any ways to help make your teeth whiter?
Brush your teeth for 5minutes 4 times a day, using Crest whitening expressions toothpaste for 2 minutes, then using a mixture of baking soda and peroxide for 2 minutes, then use mouth rinse with fluoride for the last minute.





If that doesn't improve your teeth, then continue to do that but also use crest whitening strips.





Here's info on Crest Whitening Strips-

Also, smoking and drinking coffee discolors teeth.

Can Hydrogen Peroxide be used as teeth whitener? If yes then how ?

My teeth are yellow in colour. I brush it regularly but still there is no improvement.

Can Hydrogen Peroxide be used as teeth whitener? If yes then how ?
Pour some hydrogen peroxide on your toothbrush, then pour a little baking soda on it....brush that on your teeth and let it sit for about 5 minutes. It tastes nasty if you swallow any of it, but it will help whiten your teeth.
Reply:Just pour some on your toothbrush %26amp; brush all over your teeth for at least 60 seconds, or try Crest Whitening Strips.
Reply:Check with your dentist they could help...
Reply:It can be used but it will really irritate your gums. So if you do want to us peroxide us a q-tip to apply.
Reply:I've heard of a peroxide gel that went into a cup-like thing that fitted over your teeth.
Reply:It does work, but not as well as a whitening kit. You have to keep the peroxide on your teeth longer than what you are able to with just a brush.





(Gargleing with it doesn't work well either. Peroxide does 'burn' your mouth.)
Reply:used with baking soda is a great cleaner and whitener
Reply:HYDROGEN PEROXIDE is used as a gum cleaner. it is excellent to be mixed with water, 1/2 and 1/2 and then brushed on the teeth and gums. it will help your gums to get better and also help.


about the teeth whitening, you can try it, but i am not sure it makes too much of a different.





normal teeth are usually not completely white. this is only possible thru the process of bleaching or capping your teeth,





if you drink soda or coffee much, your teeth will stain. buy a good toothpaste like remraht (i am not sure of spelling) or any toothpaste that carries whitening for the teeth.





to get your teeth super white, you will have to go to a dentist, the home versions are good but for dramatic changes, you got to go to a professional.
Reply:No, Hydrogen Peroxide is a poison. For heaven's sake don't put in in your mouth. Try any one of a number of teeth whitening products currently on the market. Oh and you should probably stop smoking %26amp;/or drinking tea - the top causes of stained teeth.
Reply:add a tea spoon to half a glass of water swish around your mouth like mouth wash and soit straight back out i use this and its great the stains aren't as bad as they use to be.... hope this helps!
Reply:DONT USE HYDROGEN PEROXIDE!!! its dangerous...and my friend tried those crest white strips and they have ammonia in them and made her teeth brittle...and one of them almost fell out too...you should dump your tooth brush in a box of baking soda and brush your teeth then rinse it out and then brush with your regular tooth paste...keep on doing this regulary and your teeth will be brighter and stronger...trust me ive tried it myself

I have braces & i want my teeth to be whiter! help?

i have braces. my teeth arent yellow but they def. can be whiter. any tips?

I have braces %26amp; i want my teeth to be whiter! help?
DO NOT WHITEN YOUR TEETH WITH BRACES ON THEM!!!! If you whiten your teeth with braces on, there is a chance that you will whiten only the enamel on your teeth that is not covered by the braces. The part of the tooth that is covered by the braces WILL NOT WHITEN, and when you have your braces removed, you will have little "yellow" squares on your teeth, where your braces were.


You may think, no problem, I will just whiten them again when I get my braces off. Not so fast, big problem. If you try to whiten the little yellow squares off your teeth, the surrounding enamel will just get whiter, along with the squares, and your teeth will not match for a very long time. AND, when you get your braces off, do not over whiten! If you do, your teeth will become "opaque" and appear darker (greyish) because the inside of your mouth is dark. Just follow instructions on any whitiening product closely.
Reply:Brush them with baking soda
Reply:ask the dentist before you try this, but peroxide is really good, and cheap! just rinse with it and lightly brush your teeth with it. it is not permanent, though
Reply:Well brush with whitening toothpaste in the morning and at night, is all i can recommened as of right now. I am a dental assistant and I know for a fact it is impossible to bleach while you have braces. For now use a whitening paste, and when they are removed go for crest white strips. They work great, i have got in office bleaching and used crest strips. The strips work just as well and you will save about 300$.


dental assistant-
Reply:Try brushing your teeth normally, and when you get your braces off, you can use crest white strips to whiten your smile, I don't think poeple whould notice that your teeth need to be more white if you have braces.
Reply:I have braces. My teeth are yellow but my trousers stay up.

What's a good way to clean your dogs teeth?

I've noticed some of her teeth becoming yellow and was wondering if anyone can tell me a really good way of cleaning them without causing her to move around alot. She's a german shep and gets annoyed when I check her teeth. Thanks.

What's a good way to clean your dogs teeth?
Pet stores carry these special type of bones that are supposed to help clean your dogs teeth. They help remove the plaque that builds up on them.





But to actually brush them, try the sight below for some tips!





http://www.ehow.com/how_2210_brush-dogs-...
Reply:look at the pestore, or even walmart/costco etc... they make these little dog bones that the dogs chew on...but they are Dental Bones... im not sure the exact name i think maybe its Pedegree? anyways they work well. helps keep their stinky breath away too lol :) but remember its normal for dogs teeth to get kinda yellow! they dont brush them like us!
Reply:You may have to take her in to the vet for cleaning if it has gotten really bad.





ROutinely however, stop by the pet store, they sale pet toothpaste and brushes you can use routinely.
Reply:i get my dog's cleaning done at a vet in pasadena,california
Reply:Try a toohbrush and some doggie tooth paste. They make flavors that dogs like plus human tooth paste may not be so good for them. If that doesn't work you can take you dog to get her teeth cleaned professionaly. It also helps their teeth if you give them treats that also help clean their teeth.





Good Luck!
Reply:with a tooth brush ..... that is what i do for my dogs !!
Reply:they make the bones for dogs to chew on and they help maybe not as good as brushing but they do help





thanks again
Reply:I have heard that greenies and raw hide bones can cause problems with digestion, although they are good for their teeth--so I would keep a close eye on her if you give her either of these. If you bring her to pet-co or another place that does grooming they can brush her teeth. Otherwise, vets recommend a tooth cleaning once a year. I guess they put them under general anesthetic and do a really extensive cleaning. If she is having problems, I would maybe check with a vet about this procedure. Good luck!
Reply:feed them bones because bones are sort of a dog's toothbrush
Reply:The most effective thing you could do is schedule a teeth cleaning with your Vet and then keep up on the teeth and gums health by using a toothbrush and doggie toothpaste or pet stores sell these disposable covers for your finger that you can brush your dogs teeth with. This will help the dogs teeth stay healthy and white.


Your dog may balk at this but will get used to it if you are consistent. I wouldn't over do it, but we brush our dogs teeth about twice a week. Keeps their breath from getting rank, too.
Reply:There are special doggie toothbrushes on the market that are made of rubber with rubber bristles and slip over your index finger. There's also doggie toothpaste that tastes 'yummy' to dogs. I wouldn't worry as much about a little yellowing. What you need to look out for is the buildup of plaque along the gumline, reddening of the gums, and especially loose teeth.


When you clean her teeth, make sure she's sitting and calm. Be firm and don't show affection if she's misbehaving, that will only encourage her to misbehave. Gently but firmly pull up her lips and begin brushing. If she lets you do this, praise her for it. Add more doggie 'toothpaste' if it helps.


If you still have trouble, some pet stores like PetSmart have a teeth-cleaning service as do some dog salons. You can ask to watch how they do it or just have them do it for you.
Reply:one way that works for my dogs is playing fetch with a lemon. when they bite into it, the citrus does a decent job of keeping their teeth white, and their breath fresh.
Reply:tooth brush
Reply:Buy some dental treat sticks, they help to keep your dogs teeth clean :D
Reply:The easiest and least expensive way to clean a dogs teeth is to let your dog do it himself by feeding him or her carrots. My Vet suggested it. I use baby carrots and a one or two pound bag is very inexpensive and lasts a long time. This will help to elliminate plaque and tartar but is not meant to take the place of a normal teeth cleaning. It also eliviates the mess on the floor or carpeting that some of those bones leave. I only give them to him as a treat. If he gets them all of the time, he may lose his taste for them. We treat carrots as something special.





My Rameses loves them. He will soon be 1 Yr. old and weighs about 70 lbs. He is a baby doll who is an Australian Shepherd / Great Pyrenees mix. He will double in size according to my Vet.
Reply:Bf said vet can clean teeth professionally but I say just get some of those denta-bones dog bones they sell at the store.





There are teeth wiping cloths that are sold for traveling when you can't brush and rinse. If your doggie is tame enough you may be able to use it on him. I don't think it could hurt him as they are meant for people??





I copied the following for you:





It is important to keep your dogs teeth clean. Ideally you would brush them every day, or every other day. Feeding a food meant to clean teeth is also benificial. Medi-Cal makes an Oral Care food, and so does Nutro-Dental care, and Hills has an oral care food. The food is made in a large chunk, that does not crumble when the dog eats it, so his teeth have to go in and out, in and out, of the hard piece of food. If you notice a lot of tartar on your dogs teeth, then you should make an appointment with your Vet for cleaning and scaling.

How many times a day do you brush your teeth??

I brush my teeth in the morning, after lunch %26amp; before bed, but I feel like they are still dirty. Does any body else brush after lunch?


I just got my braces off %26amp; my teeth look YELLOW but I do not want to spend alot ot money on getting them whitened. Does anyone have any alternitives?

How many times a day do you brush your teeth??
I try my best to get in three times per day. Yes, I brush after lunch. Ask your dentist for a whitening solution--doing it without his/her assistance could make your teeth worse.
Reply:you can get the strips. it will get better in time, the braces make it hard for the brisles of the brush to clean certain spots. now that they are gone your teeth will start looking better gradually.
Reply:it doesn't matter the times in a day you brush your teeth, all what matters is how well you look after you teeth.


try this magic. try washing you teeth with water each time after a meal or snack. just use you hands as the brush and clean them very well to get all the pieces of food off. this will prevent any yellowish colour
Reply:After meals, 3 x's a day... I have one of those cool toothbrushes that have two buttons on them, one to turn on a vibrating mechanism, the other to turn it off... to me THAT toothbrush (which is cheaper than the hi-tech one) is GREAT for cleanin my chompers. I'm addicted to mouthwash, and they have a new one that whitens and protects from yellowing. Don't you have dental insurance? One of the hospitals here in Dallas has a program for people who can't afford insurance and if you qualify, (I do, even tho I have a full-time job) they give you insurance so you can go to the dentist for next to nothing. Our hospital is called John Peter Smith or JPS. Crest Whitening Strips (also the name of the whitening mouthwash), they work, but you have to use them often in order to make your teeth whiter, and they're a pain, but the mouthwash is excellent.
Reply:i brush and floss after every meal, even after snack 3 - 5 times a day

Where and how much are teeth whitning products?
I use Crest White strips. Been using it for over 3 years. I'm a former smoker and a coffee addict and it works every time. I use the Classic or Renewal. It may cause sensitivity but goes away after you stop using the system. Some dentists offer the Crest Supreme or another whitening system but can be pricey. Crest cost me under $30. Anotehr way is the Sonicare toothbrush. It got my teeth super white, even my hygenist said I didn't need a whitening and no plaque/tartar. But you have to be super gentle using it or it can damage your gums and teeth. Good luck!
Reply:The dentist is always the best choice for results. however, they arent the cheapest or pain free. lol. just about any grocery store or possibly a GNC or comparable nutrition store may carry it also.
Reply:I used Crest Whitestrips. They cost 29.00 at Wal-Mart. They really made a difference. They have a lower strip and an upper strip. Here's a tip---I talk with my top teeth more so I didn't use all the lower strips--just till my lower teeth got to the shade I wanted. Then I used the lower strips on my top teeth!! It really works!
Reply:you can buy crest white strips if you want, they cost around 30$, but they aren't the most effective.


The whitening products the dentist has is the best, they change the shade of your teeth a lot faster and for longer. See, the stuff they sell in the store has about 3% whitening ingrediants, the stuff the dentist has is between 15-30%. So i recommend going to the dentist, they have gels that you apply. The good stuff at the dentist costs between 300$ and 1000$.

How can i get my teeth more white??

i am 13 and my teeth look yellow! i hate it. i got my braces off this summer and when i get to school, people are going to be asking for me to smile. i brush y teth twice a day and i floss once a day. i use whitening toothpaste. i don't want my mom to know about it bc you know i am only 13 so i can't do anything like going to the dentist

How can i get my teeth more white??
Try baking soda. Put some baking soda on your toothbrush and wet it and brush your teeth for 2 minutes.


Also you can use tooth whitening rinse. Listerine makes one. just brush your teeth and use the rinse.


Another option is Crest white strips or night effects, but they make your teeth porous so they should only be used as a last resort. You are young so you don't want to create problems for your teeth down the line.


Good luck!
Reply:Colgate simply white, its a clear whitening gel that you apply to your teeth or you could try using clear strips.





I use the whitening gel %26amp; my teeth look very nice.
Reply:there is a Listerine with whitening. It's in a white bottle It works great. You use it before you brush and it takes about 3 minute to use, so no silly strips or mouth guards. Hope it works out for you I use it all the time and love it. It's easy peasy! You deserve a white smile after all that you have gone through

What food and drink is bad for your teeth?

My teeth are yellow and very sensitive. I eat alot of chocolate throughout the day. What is it thats really bad for your teeth and is their any food / drink good for it.

What food and drink is bad for your teeth?
All food and drink can cause problems. (Especially if you don't brush and floss).


Try brushing with a Phillips Sonicare.


It's the plaque and gum shrinkage that causes problems as well as scrubbing at your teeth. The gums recede. Ouch!


Try a sensitive toothpaste. Even supermarkets do their own brands, which are not as pricey as Sensodyne, for example.
Reply:Put the chocolate down and go to the dentist. Just leave the sugar alone all together
Reply:Anything with sugar!!!! Or starch!!!!!!!
Reply:Researchers are now finding that Gatorade is VERY bad for teeth's enamel.
Reply:First off yeah i must agree GO TO THE DENTIST!!!!! second cut down on chocolate and or soda if you drink any. Try drinking more water than anything and do not eat too much junk w/ tons of sugar NOT GOOD. For sensitivity try sensodine toothpaste and brush and floss daily, if you continue your bad habits you can kiss your teeth GOODBYE!!!
Reply:drinking loads of teas, coffees and sugary soda will turn those ugly teeth yellow.





if you're a yuckmouth - try to go to a dentist and have him make molds of your teeth and bleach them, but only do it once it lasts years... don't continually do it like some morons.

Reply:coke is real bad for the teeth.

Reply:That Ribena that was supposed to be kind to teeth. I heard from someone that it was actually worse.





Milks good for teeth too?
Reply:sugar and sugary drinks are bad- check the sugar quantity in your food and switch to diet pop rather than normal cola.





Milk or calcium tablets could be good for teeth, also a fluoride tablet if you are in an area where the water isn't fluoridated.





Have frequent dental check-ups, maybe the sensitivity is due to you needing a filling. You could get a scale and polish.





Try and avoid coffee and red wine as these stain the teeth.





You could also try a sensitive toothpaste.





Brushing with bicarbonate of soda whitens teeth- although the Romans relied on brushing with urine!
Reply:spinach and dog poo
Reply:If you eat a lot of foods that are sticky (like chocolate), then you will have future cavities, unless you brush your teeth every time you eat a piece of chocolate. If you smoke, your teeth will be more yellow than a person who does not smoke. There are several toothpastes which, used three times daily, will whiten your teeth within a month. Try one of the whitening toothpastes, like the one I use, Crest Whitening Expressions Cinnamon Rush, it's good. I brush my teeth for three minutes every time, and have a clock by the sink in the bathroom, which I watch for the whole three minutes, then I gargle Listerine for a whole minute, watching the clock and wishing the minute would go by really fast. You will notice an improvement with whitening toothpaste and Listerine (it comes in many flavors).


Another consumable not good for your teeth or your body is any carbonated drink, especially the ones with High-fructose Corn Syrup (like Coca-Cola products or Pepsi products). Not only does the carbonation in the drink hurt your teeth by eating at the enamel layer, but your body stores the high-fructose corn syrup as fat, where normally your body can quickly burn up a little bit of sugar without making you gain significant weight. I lost 50 pounds by staying away from Coke and Pepsi and brewing my own Sweet Tea at home with real SUGAR when I wanted something sweet to drink (it really does work). One tea bag brought to a boil in water, then poured while hot into a 2-quart pitcher that already has about 1/2 cup sugar in the bottom. Stir it and let it sit to cool, it's better than soda anyday! (Tea does yellow your teeth, ask anybody that wears dentures like my grandmother did, tea and coffee are the worst).


If your teeth are sensitive to heat and cold, you may want to start using a flouride mouth rinse instead of the Listerine. Flouride coats your teeth and helps protect them while they rebuild the enamel layer depleted by all of the bad stuff we eat.


Don't forget to floss! 10 minutes a day to work on my teeth actually helps me feel better about smiling in public (I used to hate to show my teeth)! Hope this helps.
Reply:The worst one-two punch you can give your teeth is sugar + acid, like in sodas. The sugar is bad enough. If your teeth have been checked recently, and have no problems, try a tooth whitening and sensitive tooth product like Sensodyne whitening. If you haven't been to a dentist, get there now. Try substituting water for soda. If you must have that chocolate, brush immediately or at least rinse your mouth until no more chocolate is present, and brush as soon as you can.
Reply:Sugar,coffee, smoking are bad for your teeth. Brush regular with quality toothpaste and having dental check-ups and cleaning.Anything with calcium will strengthen the teeth enamel. Dairy products is the best food for it.
Reply:If you have a bag if sweets its better to eat them all in one go than eat them through out the day. Its the frequency not the quantity. If you eat say on every 15 Min's, acid attacks your teeth. Even fruit has natural sugar its not as bad as eating sweety things. You should try to chew sugar free gum after you eat. Things like crisps wouldn't be as bad for your teeth. Alot of food has hidden sugars like tomato soup and tomato ketchup is loaded with sugar.


Hope this helps.
Reply:Avoid sweets and fatty foods, chocolate included. Good foods include fruits,vegetables, and dairy products(it's still best to brush your teeth even if you eat the good foods.
Reply:As you have noticed, chocolate is very bad for the teeth as well as cirgerate. Apart from colouration of the teeth, chocolate and cirgerate encourage the tooth decay.
Reply:Foods that contain alot of sugar.
Reply:Fizzy sugary drinks for decay and coffee and cigarettes for colouring are not good.

How do you get teeth shiny?

My teeth are yellow

How do you get teeth shiny?
You can professionally whiten your teeth at home through your dentist. Opalescence is the only whitener approved by the ADA. It is a kit you use at home but get through your dentist. If you are under the age of 18 you can use crest white strips.





Tips:


Always use a straw


Using a straw will prevent soda, coffee, and tea from staining the front of your teeth.


Brush at least twice a day circular motions. Whitening tooth paste will not help there is not enough peroxide to make a difference.


Have your teeth professionally cleaned at your local dental office. The Hygienist will leave your teeth cleaner, brighter and healthier.
Reply:dont drink pop, brush 3 times a day for about 3 minutes for each cleaning and no smoking/alchohol. You'll see results in like 2-3 weeks.
Reply:Crest Whitestrips or brushing with baking soda. Brushing too long with take the enamal off which will make your teeth turn yellow the next time you eat.
Reply:brush with a mixture of baking soda and table salt, but dont do it all the time . I would check with a dentist to see what they say as well
Reply:Crest whitestrips have worked well for me. If you smoke or drink coffee, rinse or brush afterwards. Or quit smoking. Or you can get a professional whitening from the dentist.

Help me make my teeth white...!?

I have recently bought an Extra Whitening "Crest" toothpaste. But as the pharmacist said I use it 3 times a week only. And regularly I use "Aquafresh" toothpaste.


I don't say my teeth are yellow, but they are not white... I have to make them whiter, in only 1 month....


Now, please help me, should I use salt, or anything else??


Thanks a lot!

Help me make my teeth white...!?
use salt over ur toothpaste. regularly. this works wonders!!! results show up in 3-4 days..
Reply:this taste really bad but if you can stand it..it works..i personally could handle it but my mom does it a lot!!!





use baking soda and a little bit of peroxide to brush your teeth..don't swallow it!!!





it taste bad but it works!!!
Reply:Buy crest whitening trays i guess. my friend says they work really fast.
Reply:baking soda alone will whiten your teeth, you can add a little peroxide to the baking soda but I would suggest you do very little amount because peroxide is not that great for your teeth and will make your teeth very sensitive after using it for a while. Alternate between the regular toothpaste and the baking soda, and every now and then add some peroxide to it!

Just buy whitening toothpaste in general.


Oh and don´t drink as much Coke and dark sodas, smoke if you do, and coffee. They stain your teeth.
Reply:Introduction











Tobacco, coffee, cavities, aging and drugs can stain teeth. Treatment for discolored teeth depends on the magnitude of the stain; remedies appear here in order of increasing intensity.











Instructions


Difficulty: Moderate








Step OneBrush and floss regularly to reduce or prevent stains.


2Step TwoTry whitening toothpastes. Though heavily advertised, these only partially whiten teeth and don't provide a complete remedy. Make sure the toothpaste has the American Dental Association (ADA) seal of approval and has been clinically proved to whiten teeth effectively. Very few whitening toothpastes have undergone any type of clinical trial, and ones that are too abrasive can damage teeth or make them very sensitive.


3Step ThreeGet regular dental cleanings, which remove many food and tobacco stains. No amount of cleaning will remove the severe staining left by tetracycline or systemic disease because these pigments lie inside the tooth; you'll have to take more aggressive measures against these.


4Step FourConsider the two options, in-office and at-home treatments, for bleaching your teeth. A dentist performs in-office treatments by coating the teeth with a bleaching agent, then using periodic flashes of light to activate the solution. Treatments last 30 to 60 minutes, and the complete procedure often requires several appointments. In at-home treatments, patients wear a mouth guard fitted with bleaching gel 2 hours a day for two weeks, depending on the severity of staining.


5Step FiveThink about getting veneers, which are custom-made shells bonded to the teeth with resins. This procedure often requires removing a small amount of tooth structure and is the most invasive, as well as the most expensive, treatment option.








Tips %26amp; Warnings


No bleaching method can permanently whiten teeth, and all require repeated treatments, especially if the factor that caused staining still exists.


All of the bleaching mechanisms described here can cause tooth sensitivity, usually temporary (lasting up to several weeks).


Never try to remove or scrape off stains with your fingernails or other sharp objects.


The ADA and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration discourage use of over-the-counter bleaching kits, which can damage your gums.
Reply:stop drinking coffee,tea , and smoking these things will age your teeth before there time. then go too the dentist have your teeth cleaned and buy some teeth whitening trays they are a little expensive but the result is always worth it ! A big pretty white smile everyone will notice!
Reply:either try rembrandt products or go to the dentist. be careful w/some of the over the counter whitening products...they could potentially destroy the enamel off of your teeth.
Reply:what do u mean a natural way? the only way is using a whitening toothpaste which dosnt really work. there are white strips or professional bleaching kits from the dentist. or instant whitening at the dentist called zoom.
Reply:the NATURAL WAY to whiten your teeth is to....use ashes! (burning ashes) It really works super naturally good! Thats how my great grandmother had pretty white teeth! Its a passed down secret of my family! Give it a shot, you won't regret it! (Anyway its natural, no harm believing)





PS. Remember not to swallow the ashes!

Can you tell me what to do about my teeth?

my teeth are yellow.its so disgusting.its been like this for years i am not sure when they start becoming yellow.i have tried numerous of things and nothing seems to work.baking soda and peroxide whiting toothpastes and every thing.my mom won't let me get over the counter things like crest whitestrips.so does anyone know a good suggestion because i love to smile and i am starting to feel insecure.please help.thanks

Can you tell me what to do about my teeth?
When was the las time you went to the Dentist? Cavities are a bigger worry. To get your teeth white, buy some "plus white." Plus white is usually about $10. Or just save your money and buy your own whitestrips at $35. If you buy your own, just keep them in your locker at school.


The strips work, by the way.


It sure is nice having pearly white teeth :P
Reply:help me 2!
Reply:Only movie stars and celebs have blindingly white teeth, and they had to get expensive - - and potentially damaging - - dental veneers, laminates, crowns, etc.





Changing your diet can do wonders for teeth. Have you seen those dog treat commercials where they say that hard, crunchy foods will keep your dog's teeth white and its breath fresh? Well, it's true! (forget the fact that dogs don't care, one way or the other!) Chomp on a couple of apples a day, avoid anything with caffeine (tea, coffee, chocolate, sodas, etc), and brush your teeth at least 3 times a day; anything with calcium is a plus, along with vitamins A %26amp; D. All that is far cheaper than any gunk or gimmick you can buy on the market, and is much healthier for you, too!





And don't forget that genetics plays a part, as well! If your folks have bad teeth . . . well, let's not dwell on that! ;)





FWIW, my teeth aren't the greatest, due to both color and numerous cavities over the years, but, I'd like to think that people are interested in *me*, not my mouth! A nice smile will get you just as far, if not farther, than a fake, blindingly white smile, which, IMHO, is very distracting!





Don't buy into the Madison Avenue hype!


Be happy with who you are!

How long does it take for stains on your teeth to become really bad?
As long as you oral hygiene is good, you don't have to worry much. In the absence of certain medicines, smoking, tea, coffee, curry, etc. it is a slow process. If your concern is based on esthetics, then better start looking for affordable teeth whitening system/product to address it.
Reply:My teeth stained in 9-12 years. I can't remember exactly.
Reply:Just brush at a 45 degree angle. If you don't want yellow teeth, try some at-home products like Whitestrips or Night Effects. Your dentist could tell you for sure, though. Every mouth is different!

Where can i find a yellow hounds tooth fabic (preferable large print) to upholster a chair?

Best bet is to visit the largest upholstry shop in your area. They should have a wide selection of fabric sample books from which you can choose. Chances are very good that if they do not have what you want, they will be able to find it for you.





Good luck with your search.

There are different alternatives.





Maybe, you could see a hygienist to scale and polish your teeth and remove the staining if it just on the surface.





If the staining is in the teeth, then you could either use a home bleaching kit or laser or "zoom" bleaching.





A home bleaching lit is about $250 and it takes about 7 to 10 days to complete. Also, if you feel that in 12 months or so, you can purchase a top up syringe cause you already have the trays.





Laser or "zoom" bleaching is done in the dentist's chair. it takes about an hour and could cost $1200++. A high concentrate of bleach is painted onto the teeth and a light is used to accelerate the process. This can make your teeth very very sensitive. I mean for days and days.





Have talk with your dentist and see what her recommends.





Good Luck
Reply:i think the easiest and safest way is to consult your dentist. But it might cost you some cash. I've seen a pretty badly stained teeth of my fren, but he got it cleaned over the weekend. Just by going to see his dentist.

Anyone had their teeth professionally whitened by a dentist?

My teeth arent yellow or anything, Id just like them to be whiter or a little brighter... but Im tired of using whitening products. With my busy life I dont have time to sit with those things on and I hardly remember. How much does it cost? How long does it take? And what are the pros and cons of having it done professionally at the dentist's office rather than using the over the counter crap that takes forever.

Anyone had their teeth professionally whitened by a dentist?
Many are choosing professional teeth whitening, having it done by their dentist, as the best possible option. This is more expensive but guarantees a safe, fast and expertly done process that will result in evenly done white teeth.





The process is done faster by a dentist; who can whiten your teeth using a process that takes forty five minutes to complete. This process is done in three fifteen minute sessions. By the end of the forty five minutes the dentist will have whitened their patient’s teeth by eight to ten shades. Depending on how stained the patient’s teeth are this will be a substantial improvement. These benefits and more are what a patient gets by getting their treatment at their dentist’s office.





The dentist will use a gel that is put on the patient’s teeth. There is protection provided to the gums and lips so that the gel will not adversely affect them. As well, unlike the at home kits that can be used, if a person has the treatment done in the dentist’s office they will see results immediately. When they leave the dentist’s office their teeth will be whiter. At home kits take days and sometimes even weeks to complete the treatment process and so show their results slowly.





For other effective home teeth whitening solutions, you may wish to read about them here : http://teeth-whitening.my-fashion-house....
Reply:I have a crown (instead of a front tooth,) and when I got it done, mum asked if I wanted to get my teeth whitened and we asked the dentist about it. The dentist said all this good stuff about it... But when I asked my orthodontist about it (who has a lot more experience,) he said that the effects generally aren't what you thought they would be.... And in the long run, your teeth are ruined.





It's very bad for your teeth.

How long before cigarettes discolor ur teeth?

i started smoking about two months ago. i just quit a few days ago and i was wondering how long before your teeth become yellow from cigarettes? does it take years of doing it? will two months hurt it? i have braces on, do you think the 2 months of smoking will have a big effect on the stains when they're removed or should it be fine since it was only two months? i get my braces off in about a year and a half.





also, will the ortho know right away that any discoloration was caused from smoking, or is the discoloration the same as someone who drinks a lot of soda/tea or foods that can stain ur teeth? thanks

How long before cigarettes discolor ur teeth?
it takes a long time... you can get enamel staining from coffee, colas, tea and just about anything else that can cause staining. just be sure to brush floss and brush regularly and you'll be fine.
Reply:Right away. U should never smoke again. I bet ur teeth have already changed a couple of shades.
Reply:its pretty much the same discoloration. you might notice a little, but very small if any. good thing you quit.
Reply:It would take years of smoking to stain your teeth yellow. However, you should inhale the smoke quickly instead of holding the smoke in your mouth.





If there is any discoloration, just say you drink tea. Tea stains teeth very quickly if you drink 2 or more cups a day.

This little girl I am watching has really bad teeth, should I say something?

I am watching an 18 month old and her teeth are just awful. She was a sever premie and I don't know if that's what has contributed to her teeth or lack of care. Should I mention it to her parents or not say anything because it's not like she's my child? Her teeth are yellow and if you tap them with the spoon on accident she squeals in pain and won't finish eating.

This little girl I am watching has really bad teeth, should I say something?
yes, definitely tell them. I mean, they could be in denial for sure.. If it were me, I would want someone to say something.. help that little girl out..
Reply:If she's in pain with them I would certainly mention it. Iam sure they are aware of it, but probably dont know what to do. Maybe suggest they take her to a dentist so they can paint them. My brother had horrible teeth from drinking so much apple juice as a toddler, they had to paint a protective enamel on them for us.
Reply:Tell them, tell them. They probably know but are in denial. If someone pointed it out to them, they might do something about it. Tell them before she loses weight from not eating or something.
Reply:Take her to a dentist
Reply:Yes, if you notice she is in pain then mention it to her parents.


Be sure she is not keeping a bottle with juice (citric acid) in her mouth, like to put her to sleep, etc. Apple juice, etc. will erode her teeth. She should be drinking from a sippy-cup by now anyway. It could also be her absorbtion of calcium. She needs to see a doctor.


Good that you are contientious and caring about this.

Dont use those whitening stripes because they actually can eat the enamel right off your teeth and they will make your teeth more sensitive to cold food items.

How do u get white teeth?
First, choose the right parents. All physical characteristics begin with genetics.





Then, refrain from smoking, drinking beverages that are high in sugars (particularly Coca Cola), and eat calcium-rich foods, like broccoli.





The treatments that have been mentioned are artificial and temporary.

But for day to day care, I brush my teeth normally with toothpaste, and then I brush them again with baking soda. Also, breathing through your mouth instead of your nose encourages bacteria to grow inside your mouth, causing your breath to stink.

What's the best way to whiten your teeth?

I got my braces off like 7 months ago. But I haven't asked my dentist on how I can whiten my teeth. Not that my teeth are yellow, I would just like them to have a whiter smile and what I what I have now. I do not look for any special treatment that could cost me and arm and a leg. Are there any good ways to whiten you teeth?





PS: I wear retainers, so I am not sure if whitening strips would work.

What's the best way to whiten your teeth?
There are a few ways you can whiten your teeth, and most people choose by cost or by convenience.





First of all, all whitening procedures are safe for your teeth. It won't dissolve enamel or do any harm (common myths). Professional to store bought whiteners use the same whitening chemicals (hydrogen peroxide and/or carbamide peroxide), it just depends on the strength of the product.





With any whitening, you can get tooth sensitivity, which is sensitizing your teeth more to cold and sometimes sweets. This is not a permanent thing, just while your whitening and maybe a day or two after you are done. It's different for each individual.





The professional whiteners that I deal with is the take home trays and the Zoom in office whitening. The take home trays are custom trays that are made from a mold of your teeth, then you are responsible to do the bleaching itself at home, usually a 2 week treatment. You can either sleep with the trays in, or wear the trays for about 2 hours a day (depending on the strength of the bleach). With this method, you need to be responsible and do it for the 2 weeks, or you won't get the best results. If tooth sensitivity is an issue, you can do the whitening every other day for 4 weeks instead, and should get he same results. At home whitening can range from $250-$350





The in office Zoom whitening is a 2 hour appointment at your dentist (if he/she offers zoom) and that would be an equivalent to the 2 week at home treatment. People like this option because they don't have to be responsible and commit to the 2 week tray system. With the Zoom, your gum tissues are isolated with a special barrier liquid that hardens (the gel used is very strong and if it gets to your gum tissues, it can get 'burnt' or a white sore spot on your gums), then the whitening gel is put on your teeth and activated by the special zoom light. 3-4 15 minutes sessions are done with the bleach. Take home trays are also made with the zoom for any future touch ups you may need. Touch up whitening can be purchased at your dental office. Zoom can range from $300-$500.





The over-the-counter whiteners do work, they just don't do as thorough of a job as the professional and need to be done more often. You also have to be careful not to get too much of the gel on your gum tissues, or it can cause a 'burn'. If you notice any of the gel on your gums, wipe it off with your finger or a toothbrush. The over-the-counter whitener that I like the best is the Oral-B/Rembrant whitening strips (comes in a silver, oval shaped box with blue top and bottom). These 2 companies came together to make this strip. I like it because the strip is made of a wax material, when places on your teeth, your body temperature warms it and it molds to your teeth and stays in place. The Crest Whitestrips have a tendancy to slide around and a lot of the gel can get in your mouth (and tastes bad). I am not a fan of any of the paint on whiteners. Over the counter whiteners can range from $15-$50.





Just a little tidbit, don't fall for any of the toothpastes marked 'whitening' and believe it. That is all marketing, they really don't whiten.





Good luck on your choice.

Lol-thank you for answers re:hamster teeth however....?

your answers regarding brushing do not explain why other animals like cats, dogs and monkeys have white teeth, as far as I am aware cats dont brush their teeth with colgate either...I thought it was to do with enamel on rodents teeth being yellow due to the compostion being softer as they are continually growing (unlike ours)..though as no-one else has come up with that answer I must be wrong"

Lol-thank you for answers re:hamster teeth however....?
The color of tooth enamel is frequently due to diet. Beavers have bright orange incisors probably due to their gnawing on tree bark. One assumes the tree resin works its way into the enamel. The walrus feeds on clams and has white tusks. There are a few which hunt seals however, and they can be identified by having yellow tusks. The teeth of gorillas become blackened as they develop cavities. This is due to a bacteria which converts carbohydrates into acidic chemicals which eat into the enamel. Human teeth will behave the same way. Many carnivores have yellowish teeth because of their high protien diets. However, some sea lions in zoos develop blackened teeth and I suspect it is because they are given "dog biscuits" as treats. The biscuits are high in carbohydrates such as starch.





The enamel on a rodent's teeth is present only on the side of the tooth facing out. This allows the back edge to wear more quickly and makes the edge of the tooth very sharp.
Reply:perhaps it's sumthin to do with their diet, what they eat maybe... dogs get dentist things anyway, dunno about cats?!
Reply:It all depends on diet. My german shepherd sophie likes apple pie and she has icky yellow teeth from that much sugar, wheras my brother's ridiculous yorkshire eats only eukanuba and has a fresh breath and pearly whites. In humans, people that have a balanced diet have cleaner and whiter teeth than those that chug 2L of pepsi or 2 cups of coffee a day and so on, not to mention people that smoke. it's all about what goes into your mouth. Change the hamster's diet to an all greens diet and you'll see its teeth whitening slowly, might take a few months tho.

How to get angel white color of teeth back?

you know, been smoking for 15 years, coffee, my teeth got yellow a bit... what would you suggest? besides brushing teeth obviouslly... btw would it help if you brush your teeth more then 2 times per day? like 8 times? :)

How to get angel white color of teeth back?
Smoking and caffeine intake (coffee, tea, etc) cause staining. To undo that, you would need to have your teeth bleached, and then refrain from smoking and reduce your caffeine (drinking via a straw, rather than sipping, helps).





Brushing your teeth helps remove plaque, but the staining is there from smoking regardless.

Why do teeth discolor from the inside when you get older?

Teeth go yellow

Why do teeth discolor from the inside when you get older?
yes they do as a natural thickening of dentine(the layer under enamel) happens. this is yellow in colour. also the natural wear and tear and thinning of enamel
Reply:coffee, smoking and all of it. all you need to do is have hygienically clean at the dentist.

Yeller teeth ??

Is it tru that semen will make my teeth go yellow and damage em ?

Yeller teeth ??
No that is not true....not brushing them, smoking, drinking coffee, soda's will turn your teeth yellow or brown...Whoever told you that was pulling your leg....
Reply:Are you serious ? LOL ...*that's* a new one !!





Well , it is a well-known fact that things such as sugary soft drinks with their acidic properties , are a common cause of tooth enamel damage and erosion .





The average amount of a man's ejaculatory fluid (semen) , is roughly equivilent to mere ounces if that . While it is very hard to say how much was actually consumed by one who is concerned about said damage to tooth enamel , I would imagine the precise amount of semen causing such damage over a short time period to be equal to the damage done to teeth caused by moderate to overly indulgent soda consumption . Why not make a science experiment of it for that chemistry final lab assignment that one's professor has assigned ? That would be neat!
Reply:Of course it's true, that's what I tell my boyfriend. He understands....lol

Reply:no!... thats a myth... the same when people say semen makes your teeth white.... semen does nothing to your teeth...

calm down! i have one too. they're called "beauty spots" and people are born with them, it cant be avoided. bleaching may help, if your teeth are yellow that is not good. i have braces so that covers it up, but its really no big deal. its on my left front tooth, and it used to bother me, but now that i have straight white teeth im fine. go to a dentist.

I need more instructions on how to whiten your teeth with baking soda!!?

Well, I read that baking soda helps whiten your teeth, and I do not know the proper way to do it! Do I rub it on my teeth with my hands? Do I stick my tooth brush in the container and then get it wet? HELP!( I am going to Las Vegas on sunday, and my teeth are yellow!)if u know this tip dosn't help very fast, please give me another one besides strips(i already use whitening tooth paste!)

I need more instructions on how to whiten your teeth with baking soda!!?
PLEASE do not use peroxide on your teeth!!!! All that does for you is rip off the natural coating on your teeth (enamel) and opens the door for cavities, sensitivity, and gum disease. That's not a good idea, trust me.





You can buy baking soda toothpastes at any store in the world. Or go to the drug store and get a teeth whitener but whatever you do, not straight peroxide. Good luck!
Reply:wet your toothbrush before u put on the baking soda (helps it to stick better) but don't dip the toothbrush inside the container (cause that can cause the soda to clump or whatever). so u can put a little bit in the palm of ur hand and then then put it on ur toothbrush..then brush away..i guess.
Reply:Hey try this. Pour some peroxide into a cup. Then add enough baking soda to make it like a toothpaste texture. Brush teeth like normal. This should help, and you should see improvement within a few brushings. The "fizzle" in the peroxide actually enhances the baking soda. Just, dont swallow. It's kinda nasty.
Reply:Mix it with a tiny bit of water. Its easier to use a toothbrush, but don't let it get on your tongue because it tastes disgusting. It does not whiten them, but it removes stains. They end up whiter anyway!

Teeth Whitening..?

IM 15 and i have my two front teeth with yellow stains on them for like 10 years... And I was wondering is there a way i can get rid of them or make them white that is inexspensive?

Teeth Whitening..?
Get Arm %26amp; Hammer or another baking soda brand in a small box especially for use in brushing your teeth. Get your own personal box of baking soda; as you will see, this will help prevent waste and keep you from spreading germs as well. To use the baking soda in brushing, first clean your toothbrush thoroughly. Now, shake your toothbrush fairly dry. Next dip the toothbrush in the baking soda so it is completely covered in the white powder. Now brush your teeth thoroughly, scrubbing all sides. It is not really harmful to brush until there is some slight and occasional bleeding of the gums or from between the teeth. This practice after each and every meal can whiten teeth remarkably in two months. You should then continue this habit throughout your life.








Or, try brushing with hydrogen peroxide.








You can try brushing with hydrogen peroxide. I would recommend you not swallow any. Put a small puddle of peroxide into a Dixie cup. Cover the brush in peroxide by dipping the brush as you tilt the cup. Now brush thoroughly as with the baking soda. This type of brushing can be done once a day. Spit any fluids; don’t swallow at any time while brushing with hydrogen peroxide. Check with the hydrogen peroxide manufacturer for degrees of warning for this use. Though brushing with hydrogen peroxide is in common use, you should be well informed of any concerns there may be given the amount of peroxide that might be used and therefore that there would be any risk of swallowing. Rinse completely after brushing with water and then a good mouthwash. This habit will help whiten teeth in a period of two to three months or more if kept in a daily regimen.
Reply:You should try the Crest Whitening strips I use them and they work great. They are kind of weird cause its like a gel. and you have to keep them in ur mouth for 30 min. twice a day. but i really like them.
Reply:Get satisfied using Maximum Teeth Whitening. It is an affordable at home teeth whitening system that gives no side effects to the teeth and mouth.

Teeth prob...?

my teeth are yellow, i have braces and i cant wait 12 more months to get my braces off. what can i do now, to whiten them besides brushing 3-5 times a day with whitening toothpaste.

Teeth prob...?
I hate to say this, but you will need to wait on bleaching your teeth to attain any long lasting results. If you're teeth were always "yellow" it's just the natural shade of them. They probably aren't as yellow as you think, we are always more critical of our selves. For now the best thing you can do is to spend extra time brushing and flossing to make sure your not leaving plaque on the teeth and around the braces making them appear more yellow. It takes a little more effort to maintain good oral hygiene when orthodontics are involved. You can use a whitening toothpaste, but avoid the strips and other products on the market right now. Talk with your dentist and see what he says. He may take your shade with a shade guide showing you just how light your teeth really are. Most ortho patients plan to bleach their teeth when they have theirs removed. Make it something to look forward to, your half way there now! Hope I've been some help and good luck!

You could also try quitting smoking, and cutting down on coffee or dark cola drinking.

Reply:Don't do the peroxide. You really can't do too much about whitening them. If you get them super white, when you get the braces off your teeth will have a yellow stripe.





Brushing five times a day is a bit much. Close up toothpaste probably is the safest thing for you to use.

How to whiten teeth !!?

Ok so I brush 3 times a day always watch what I'm eating and drinking butt still don't have white teeth there yellow any effective way to whiten teeth !!!? ( Besides the Dentist )

How to whiten teeth !!?
Brushing alone will not whiten your teeth, no matter what kind of toothpaste or baking soda you use. If you don't want to get bleach trays made from your dentist (the best way to whiten), then you can get the Crest Whitestrips or the Rembrandt whitening strips. I've seen them at Wal-Mart, and you can get pretty good results from them. And they're not too expensive, so you can try them out first and if you don't get the results you want, you can see your dentist about the custom trays.
Reply:special mouthwash.


And ask your dentist about this because I don't know the name. They look like Clear Retainers but you put like paste in it and put it on for like 40 minutes and your teeth are whiter.
Reply:Baking soda, brush with a little baking soda. But not often.
Reply:you know what, to tell you the truth, yellow teeth are the truly healthy ones.. i mean naturally yellow, not because of tartar or something.. remember, teeth are bones too.. a healthy bone is never purely white... but if you really want them white, get a toothpaste with a high fluoride content..
Reply:Crest whitestrips are the cheapest way to go. Good job on watching what you are eating. Keep staying away from dark sodas, coffee, and tea which can stain your teeth. Also, remember that if you have any pre-existing crowns or fillings, they will not bleach no matter what whitening product you use. I have seen patients use the over the counter stuff so much they go off the charts in tooth shades and dentists cannot even match it.
Reply:listerin whitening mouthwash, or strips

Why are my teeth?

my teeth still yellow even after i brush them? i have tried all sorts, giving up coke(which i very rarely drink now) changing my toothpaste and i have tried whitening gels and stuff nothing works am stuck i am due for a 6 month check up soon what should i do cause i hate the way my teeth loook its horrible

Why are my teeth?
Well first of all Coke will not stain your teeth.


It can and will cause decay, the things that cause staining are things like curries, tea, coffee smoking etc.


Also genetics some people just naturally have yellow teeth.


You have two options:-





1. Veneers, this is were you have your natural tooth drilled down impressions taken and a week later have thin porcelain covers fitted over your teeth. This is a costly procedure which also involves lots of time in the dental chair, and a real commitment to your oral hygiene forever! I would not recommend this as you are drilling away at healthy teeth. Also they can stain so depending on your diet these in time my become yellow. Also they can fracture and need replacing.





2. Whitening, this involves having impressions taken and putting a whitening gel in trays every night for about 2 weeks. This also has its down sides.


Also very expensive, can cause VERY sensitive teeth as it thins the enamel, and the worst thing of all about this is that depending on your diet this can last only 6mths, if you are not eating things that stain your teeth then it can last 18mths +





Whatever you decide it needs lots of consideration and a good discussion with your dentist to decide what is the right thing to do.


Hope this is helpful.

Reply:Coffee smoking and red wine stain teeth ask your dentist they may need bleaching
Reply:when you go to your dentist you could ask about bleaching (whitening your teeth... they can do that for you I believe it may cost a bit but if you really are unhappy it cant hurt to ask. Otherwise you can keep trying different whitening products too but its up to you decide. brushing alone isnt going to take away yellow stains intstantaniously but over time it will help. I personally use the listerene whitening mouth wash and a whitening toothpaste and then every so often i will go get a different whitening product like Crest whitening strips. It helps. your teeth could be very stained depending on how long and often you drank coke, because coke is very acidic and probably doesnt help the enamel on your teeth. I think thats about all I can really say. This is my own personal view but I hope it helps you anyway.
Reply:go to the dentist and talk about bleachin
Reply:Your teeth are a yellow tinge due to your genetics. Actually the more (naturally) yellow they are, the more healthy they are, as often white white teeth are a sighn of thinness and lack of calcium.





Please dont compare your teeth with that of those in magazines, they are 99% airbrushed and re-colour-touched. Those on tv or in film have the blues in the picture brought out so their teeth are also artificially white.





I also hate how yellow my teeth are. But I also think that could be alot to me thinking about them and imaging I can change them. When I accept they are as yellow as they are and I cannot do anything to change that, I dont worry so much- if at all- though I change my mind on this on a daily basis!!





Just to add though, I havent tried whightening tooth pastes mysel but have heard from tried and tested groups that they make so little difference its almost pointless. Check out bbc watch dog on t'internet! Whitening gels work on the idea that they strip the teeth not only of the yellow colour, but also of the protective surface, so if you drink or eat anything discoloured- weather its a cup of tea, a glass of coke or an entrie 2 litre bottle of coke, its going to discolour your teeth, all the effoert gone to nothing. You really really have to just stop eating/drinking anything which will discolour teeth- like TOTALLY abstain as not only will it discolour teeth, it will discolour teeth more as teeth no longer have the same protection as they did before the gel was used.





I'd advise seeing a dentist or specialist about this, but please lay off the coloured stuff if you want results. Be careful if you are thinking of having another whitening session as your teeth will be weaker than they were the last time and having them fall out has gotta be worse than having them yellow?!
Reply:the coloring of teeth are also linked to genetics. does your family members have discolored teeth? The teeth whitening system I used was the Crest white strips but it has to be prescription strength. Do not buy the ones they sell in the grocery stores. Get the Crest white strips that is only sold in dentist office. I live in Houston and the box costed $50. It really works and i got a lot of compliments on my pearly white teeth.

Celebrities have very white teeth, I must say.

Bleach trays are about $400 and


Zoom whitening at your dentist office is around $900 depending on where you live ...
Reply:Lazer tooth whitening . About $300 per tooth .
Reply:crest white strips all the way. you dont even need to use the surpreme ones, the original ones work just fine. i think they are about 30 bucks a box, and its a 2 week supply (unless you go with the surpreme) but now the orginals might be even cheaper than that.
Reply:Hydrogen peroxide works as well as anything out there--I have tried many tooth whiteners--the celebs spend 300 dollars or more each visit--depends on how much you want to spend.
Reply:Try Crest Whitestrips. I have used them and they work miracles. Now, if you want teeth like celebrities, I would recommend taking a picture of yourself and photoshopping it like they do, because any celebrity that's teeth ISN'T photoshopped had it done professionally by a dentist, and that is quite pricey.





If you do try Crest Whitestrips, I HIGHLY recommend the original ones. The premium ones do the same thing a little faster, but they actually make your teeth kinda sensitive. I didn't finish that pack and switched to the originals and it made it worlds better. The originals are only about $20 and like I said, work wonders. Plus, dentists say they don't harm the enamel on your teeth, so there's no worry! :)





Good luck with your decision!
Reply:I use Crest whitening toothpaste and i dont know if it's just that my teeth have always been healthy, but in all of my recent pictures (and there's been a lot with prom/graduation!), I often notice that my teeth are whiter than other people's in the photo
Reply:make a paste from baking soda and peroxiod and brush daily it is a non absravie will protect the enamle
Reply:To whiten your teeth you have many options. The simplest, least expensive and least invasive would be to bleach. Your choices in bleaching range from the (1)OTC's like Crest Whitestrips (which work reasonably well) to (2) take home bleaching kits, or (3) proprietary products like ZOOM or BriteSmile. I favor the take home bleaching kits as they get you the best results at the cost.


You can always venner (such as Lumineers) or crown your teeth, but that is much more expensive and invasive. It is however a good option if you have teeth that require restorations or are crooked that you want to straighten.


Celebrities have these options at their disposal. Many have bleached, others have veneered.
