How can i have whiter teeth?

i brush my teeth twice a day with one of those sonicare elite toothbrushes, i floss whenever i see that stuff between my teeth, and sometimes i use listerine at night. this has been going on for a little whie now, and still no results. yes, i eat sweets (moderately, not overdoing it), and i know that probably makes it worse, but i just want to know how i can whiten my teeth inexpensively, without bleaching my teeth or using any kind of strips, and my goal is to go to the dentist without them telling me i have a cavity. help!!

How can i have whiter teeth?
I use Listerine PRE-Rinse... SO far it's made my teeth whiter over time, it's inexpensive and doesn't taste bad!





However... whitening your teeth won't prevent cavities.





You should brush after every meal.





If your a candy lover like me... don't eat candy through out the day... if your going to chomp on some sweets.. . pick a time and eat it all at the same time... then go brush your teeth. Sugar sticks to the enamel of your teeth so make sure if you're going to have a piece of candy or sweets... go brush right after to avoid cavities.





Hope that helped!

Reply:Eating strawberries is a natural way to whiten the teeth. Also brush your teeth with baking soda to polish them up about every other month.

Reply:Is there a reason you don't want to use strips? I've used them before and they really work. They are inexpensive, too. The ones I used are the Crest Whitestrips (just the regular ones) and they're like 20 bucks. People started telling me my teeth were really white after the first time.





We have the color teeth we have because of genetics (along with what we eat and how well we take care of our teeth). It sounds like you're doing everything you can, so if you want a boost, try the strips!
Reply:Whitening toothpaste such as Rembrandt whitening or extra whitening, whatever they have, works well for me. It's a little more expensive but you don't have to keep getting it to maintain the results. Just get a tube here and there.


The cavity thing may not be related to whiteness. Whitening products can even weaken enamel which protects your teeth from cavities. Crest pro-health, I think it's called, works for a whole spectrum of dental health including whitening and cavities. Flossing is good to do daily.

Reply:Listerine has a new product called listerine whitening and it really works you use it before you brush instead of after and then you brush in within 2 weeks you see the difference it is very strong though.
