I made the mistake of neglecting my team for most of my childhood and teen years, and now at 19 I'm looking into methods to whiten my teeth, such as in-office bleaching, bleach trays, White Strips, etc.
Does anyone have any advice on these different products, but more importantly, are they permanent?
Are teeth-whitening methods permanent?
teeth are LESS white due to coffee, tea, smoking, red wine, and just food. So AFTER bleaching, if you do any of these, your teeth will darken up a bit.
I give my patients the bleaching tray; I've been using the same pack of bleach syringes myself since 2002 (as I only touch mine up ever 3-6 months or so). That way you can just keep doing it.
If you need work, be advised...esp if front teeth need white fillings. If poss, do the bleaching FIRST then the dentist can do the work to MATCH where the bleaching got to. if you do the white fillings first, and then bleach, your fillings will not lighten!! you could get the dr to do the fillings really light and then HOPE to bleach the rest of the teeth to that level, but that's a bit shady.
-In office is really expensive cuz you're taking up chair time. I don't do this, and don't recommend it unless you're like "Oh, i'm getting married next week; what do do?"
-Trays, I think are the best, as mentioned above.
-crest strips are OK; you may notice a difference but not always super dramatic. they are better for maintaining whitening after you had it done.
Reply:usually about $150-175 in New Eng; might be less where u. cost is for EACH - some dents price them for the set, but some people don't care about bleachin the lowers (who sees them? more in women than men...)
there are SOME OTC products but lower conc. than w/ professional Report It
Reply:The manufacturer will be a fool if he produces such a product.
Reply:From what I am told by the dentist the method works for as long as you care for your teeth.
Most though work about a year, this is a professional whitening. Because we eat and drink things that will put stain on our teeth, from coffee and cigs to blueberries and cola.. and we dont' always brush after each meail the stains/yellowing returns.
You might invest in a professional whitening first especially if you have been neglecting your teeth you might need work done.
btw I have used the White Strips they are okay I see some lightening but again I don't use them daily and they want you to use them for 2 weeks solid.
Reply:Nothing is permanent. Nothing is forever.

Can you put bleach on your teeth to make it whiter??!!!?
Or is it a bad thing to do? or is it a good thing%26gt;??????????????????
Can you put bleach on your teeth to make it whiter??!!!?
Bleach?? Please tell me you are referring to whitening strips or some other product purchased in the dental care section of your local store. If you are referring to the bleach that you whiten your clothing with also know as sodium hypocloride...do not use it in your mouth. This can cause massive tissue damage, and even death if you ingest it. Not a pleasant death, severe chemical burns internally..The answer is NO!!!
Reply:RIGHT ON... Bleach in the mouth.. YAH! I never thought of that. I should get some chlorine bleach and put it in my mouth,after all, if it turns a piece of meat white, then it should turn my teeth white...
Reply:instead of bleach try swirling your toothbrush around in a cup of baking soda before brushing. I've heard this makes your teeth alot shinier and whiter.
Reply:You trying to kill yourself ??? No you can't put bleach on your teeth !! Buy a whitener from the drug store.
Reply:You can DENTAL bleach...laundry bleach is toxic!
Reply:well if you go to the dentist, they use special bleach trays that are different from regular bleach. if you want to get your teeth whitened, consult your dentist.
Reply:You can even spray white paint on your teeth to make them whiter. But I wouldn't do either.
Reply:only if you want to be poisoned and have your teeth eaten away.
Reply:yes but you'll probably die or get hurt. Save your money and get it whitened by a dentist. Safe and better results.
Reply:absolutely. try it and email me the results.
Reply:You need special dental bleaches.
Reply:NO! YOU WILL GET SICK AND DIE!!!!!
You can use over the counter white strips or peroxide and baking soda.
Boy you need to think about this stuff. Read labels
Dental bleach is not the same as laundry bleach. Dental bleach is 25-45% hydrogen proixide. and its a gel so it doestn run all over your mouth.
Reply:Dental bleach that you get from your dentist or buy at the store made specifically for teeth, yes! But not chlorine bleach, NO NO NO. Ok, in review, and you know I like to do that...Dental Bleach is a Yes, it is a good thing to whiten teeth! Laundry Bleach or Clorox is a NO, it's not a good thing!
Reply:Seriously, the bleach would very likely make you sick to your stomach.
Reply:no.
you will die.
Reply:use peroxide. put a liitle bit in a cup and mix a little bit of water with it and swish it around in your mouth after you brush your teeth. just make sure not to swallow. if you think you might.. dip your tooth brush in pure peroxide and brush with that. and rinse your mouth good afterwards. it works great!
good luck!
Reply:POISON! BLEACH IS POISON!
Brush w/a paste of hydrogen peroxide mixed w/baking soda. Then brush w/a toothpaste whitener.
Reply:I'm a dentist.
Don't even think about it. Bleach (i.e. sodium hypochlorite) is toxic stuff. We use it to irrigate the inside of teeth during root canals because it readily kills and disintegrates living tissue.
We inject it carefully into the tooth.
It's not for whitening your teeth.
Reply:Bleach will blister your mouth and gums, don't do it. If you have to brush with baking soda or rinse with a solution of hydrogen peroxide (used for cleaning cuts) and water, mostly water. Or go to the store and buy a product specifically meant for whitening teeth.
Peace

Reply:NO NO NO! Chlorine bleach is toxic!
The active ingredient in tooth whiteners is hydrogen peroxide (and often carbamide peroxide). I know that they call it "bleaching the teeth" but chlorine bleach is NOT involved.
Reply:There is different percentages and types of bleach you can purchase from your dentist. You need bleaching trays for this and get 15%, and never go any higher than 20% or you will be in some pain. Under a microscope a tooth that is being bleached the pours are open to allow your tooth to get lighter. So while your are bleaching definitely stay away from the coffee because it can actually make them darker, the pop isn't good either but I haven't had too much of a problem with that.
Reply:This is my answer to the question about your friend who says she is not human.
Actually when you think of the two concepts of reincarnation, and intelligent life on other planets in other galaxies, would it really be so far fetched to combine the two concepts together? Perhaps your friend identifies with being a more advanced soul from another planet who was reincarnated on earth. Look around you. Humans are insane. It's not so crazy to not want to identify with the stupid stuff they do.
I would tell her to look into Asperger's Syndrome. That is a mild form of Autism. This is not an insult. They are very intelligent people. It is commonly speculated that Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla were Aspies. That is a nickname for Asperger's Syndrome and it is in the spectrum of Autism. This is not a psychological problem. When you are like this, you can be so gifted, that 'normal' people can't understand what your gifts are. If she would search for "Asperger's" and "Autistics" on the internet, she will be able to find other people who identify the same way. It is such a relief to find that and to realize that there are others to relate to. No more pressure of trying to fit into the expectations of what people expect you to be. When I found this, for the first time in my life, I found a group I actually fit into.
I am myself am an Aspie. If she wants to, I would like to chat with her. I hope you pass this on. She deserves to look into this for the possibility that she will be able to finally find her tribe. My username for email on yahoo is mikian007. If she writes, I can give websites that are run by Autistic people that she can write to and see if she relates with them. This isn't about getting a diagnosis of Autism. This is about finding other Autistic people and be able to say wow, we think alike.

Can you use bleach on false teeth to make them whiter?
Bleaching is only for real teeth. The bleach will only bleach enamel. The same thing goes for white filling. Bleach will not affect the color of composite.
Can you use bleach on false teeth to make them whiter?
According to my dental hygenist, you cannot make them whiter.
Reply:no. it will only turn them yellow. the stores have special cleaners for false teeth.
Reply:yes but when you are done with the bleach then wash them off with water
Reply:No, bleach only affects dental enamel. I suggest bleaching first, Then your dental professional can match any (false teeth) to your now bleached teeth.

If you use bleach on your teeth, will something happen to it?
Regular household bleach is not used in whitening the teeth. Not only will it harm your teeth but it will severly burn and damage the oral tissues. If you are wondering about bleaching your teeth that is the term that most people use when referring to whitening your teeth. It can be achieved by multiple methods like Crest Whitestrips or having custom made trays by a dentist to put a whitening gel in and then wearing over your teeth.... Please no bleach!
Hope that helps!

If you use bleach on your teeth, will something happen to it?
Your teeth will turn yellow.
Reply:real pure bleach like laundry bleach? youd get poisoned.
Reply:Don't do that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you are talking about home use bleach, YES, it will destroy your teeth.
Not only that it is a POISON!!
Go to your dentist or over the counter whiteners.
Reply:If you mean like Clorox, yes something will happen, you will probably die from poisoning. I would not recommend using that, it would be extremely dangerous.
But, the products they have on the market today that will help whiten your teeth may be what you are asking about. I have tried them and they will brighten your smile, but they also make my teeth very sensitive to cold and heat and they are expensive.
They will brighten your teeth some but if you drink lots of caffeine filled beverages or smoke it will not be a permanent solution.

How can i whiten my teeth to 100% white w/o cosmetic dentistry ,bleach trays or whitestrips(r)?

How can i whiten my teeth to 100% white w/o cosmetic dentistry ,bleach trays or whitestrips(r)?
I use Chrest Whitestrips and I absolutely love them! Ok, but besides what I like, here's what I can tell you. Most whitening toothpastes don't work andt he ones that do work...they take too long to make a difference. Cosmetic whitening can be expensive. Chrest whitestips WORK! After using them about two times, you can tell a difference. They are kind of expensive...about $25-$35 depending on which kind you get, but they both work great. If money is your concern, try the less expensive one. It's kind of weird at first to feel something stuck to your teeth for 30 minutes. And I suggest that when you take them off you have the toothbrush with toothpaste ready. Don't lick your teeth after you take the strips off cuz the gel is NASTY! Plus...some people, not all, experience soft teeth after using it. It just feels like your teeth are soft and weak. But I never experienced that. I still use them, not everyday though. Just when I'm going out and I want my teeth to look good. Because let me tell you...yellow teeth is a BIG turn off. Good luck with whatever you choose.
Reply:you cant.
It is impossible to get to 100% white. and why would you.
No ones teeth are that white. the best the strips can do for you is MAYBE give you up to two shades lighter.
i think 100% white would be like looking at this text box background here...
But youre question says Without using any cosmetic dentistry ,bleach trays or whitestrips(r)?
I heard that in some places in the world where there are no dentists they chew on a branch of a tree. Im not sure what tree it is and Im not being sarcastic. I think its a springy root of some kind...
Reply:baking soda taste gross but it you should see some improvement. Don't use baking powder!
