  1. I bought a kit at wal mart pharmacy called plus+white...It works great...It comes with a little blue rubber mouthpiece and you put the paste in it and leave on for a few minutes and rinse..I could tell the difference first time..


  2. Commercial tooth whiteners use hydrogen peroxide and are expensive and inconvenient. A cheap and natural tooth whitening home remedy uses few strawberries but certain precautions have to be taken. I found the information at http://www.aches.in/toothwhitening.html

  3. consult one of cosmetic dental specialists in Beverly Hills about teeth whitening to find out what procedures is the longest lasting and least damaging to tooth enamel, you can find them at wpdental group.

    check their site.

  4. There's one I used called Celebrity Smile which I actually got basically for free from http://mycelebsmile.com/y/ and it worked really good!  My teeth are tons whiter after using it and it doesn't hurt the enamel--it's actually the same strength stuff that dentists use in their office!

  5. There are several types of products available for use at home. Some of these tooth whitening products can be easily purchased off the shelves of pharmacy while others are dispensed by your dentist.

    One popular tooth whitening product that you can use is bleaching solution that contains peroxide for bleaching tooth enamel. The bleaching agent in these products is usually carbamide peroxide, which is available in 10, 16 and 22 percent concentrations.

    Whiteners that contain peroxide typically come in gel form and are placed in a mouthguard. Some products are used twice a day for 2 weeks while others are intended for overnight use for a 1 to 2 weeks period. If you can obtain the bleaching solution from your dentist, he will be able to construct a custom mouth guard to fit your teeth precisely. Currently, the American Dental Association endorses only dentist-dispensed home-use percent carbamide peroxide tray-applied gels.

    In addition to bleaching solution, whitening strips are increasingly being used as a preferred tooth whitening product. For instance, you are now able to get your hands on a set of Crest Whitestrips Supreme from any convenience store. The flexible, invisible strips are coated with an enamel-safe tooth bleaching gel. To whiten your teeth, you simply place the strips on your teeth and wear them for about 15 to 30 minutes each day. After a period of about 21 days, you should be able to see a significant difference on the brightness of your teeth.
