Teeth whitening Help Please?

Question

The dentist says that my teeth were stained when i was little because i ate toothpaste. Is there anything I can do to make them whiter ? Even a little bit ??

I think my only other option is vineers. :l and they cost ALOT.

Answer 1

You can whiten them, but it may make the things uneven. I am assuming that your teeth are a blotchy coloration? You can try whitening, but there is no way to know how much you will lighten up or how much it will make the blotches stand out.

Yes, veneers are expensive, but that is the only certain way to cover up the color of your teeth.It is an investment, but will give you the smile that you want. Good luck

Answer 2

You can't bleach them? Zoom!

Answer 3

Sounds like you have fluorosis, which was caused by too much fluoride ingested while your teeth were developing. It is true that the bleaching probably won't make it go away, but it may make it less noticible. The only thing is it will likely take much longer than normal, meaning if you get bleaching trays (and do it at home), you will likely have to bleach for maybe even several months.

You can also try a product called MI Paste, which your dentist probably has, but again, that will likely not get rid of the stains, but may make them less noticible.

Veneers do cost a lot, and the other drawback is that you likely would need several in order to get the smile you want. If you are under 18 or so, I would probably wait until you're a bit older before getting veneers done.
