Will a teeth whitening procedure last?

So I haven%26#039;t had the best teeth. Infact, I%26#039;m a little embarrassed of them and wish I could improve their colour (they%26#039;re slightly yellowish... and it turns out that%26#039;s my %26quot;natural%26quot; colour and not some stains you can remove with teeth cleaning). My local dentist does teeth bleaching for around $375, but only said that it lasts 6 months to a year. Do these procedures typically last that long? What other alternatives do I have that actually work (like strips, do they make a difference)? I%26#039;m kind of desperate at this point, sigh, but don%26#039;t know if I%26#039;m willing to pay so much for such a short-term thing =/ Any help will do.

The over the counter bleaching strips do help some people. It may take more than one box to get a %26quot;decent%26quot; amount of change in your color. I think what the dentist may mean is that you might need a touch-up now and then after you bleach. I%26#039;m not sure if he is using an at-home tray system for you or doing the bleaching all in his office. If its an at home tray system, all you need to do is buy extra bleach and wear your trays once a month or so. Most bleaching will last longer than a year, in fact I doubt your enamel color will darken to its original color. If it does it should take longer than a year.


We use something in our office called deep bleaching. It is a combination of 2 in office sessions and 1 (2 week) at home bleaching tray session. We have had great success with it and it is supposed to be permanent if followed correctly.
Reply:Just use crest white strips. I got them 2 christmas%26#039;s ago and i still get complimants

Reply:Typically a dentist whitening will last about 6 months. However Crest puts out white strips in dental strength (not available except at your dentist) which work very well and cost about $50.00 for a treatment which also lasts about six months. A permanent option is veneers. A dentist will affix veneers to your teeth which are white and look very natural. The drawback to these is that you basically go into debt with the price of them.
