Hi, \n\nThe only way you will be able to whiten your teeth properly is to have them bleached professionally at a dentist. The stuff sold in the shops does not contain enough peroxide (the active ingredient) to remove anything but a little suface staining.You need to have at least 10% peroxide and this strength is only legally available to dentists in the UK . \n\n Bleaching, when done properly does NOT damage the enamel of the teeth, any sensitivity is usually only temporary and can usually be overcome by using a Sensitive toothpaste and fluoride mouthwash.\n\nI have had quite a few patients have it done, men and women of all ages (mostly over 40 surprisingly) and we have had some really good results.\n\nTo do home bleaching supervised by a dentist costs around £350 but gets fantastic results. You wear two bleaching trays for a couple of hours a night for approx 2 wks depending on lightening needed.\n\nYou can also have speed whitening done at the dentist in 1 hour and at around £650, but beware, if your teeth are not isolated properly this can make your teeth and gums very sensitive! better to do it gradually over a couple of weeks when you get the same results anyway. The laser light does not really do anything anyway, it just makes you think you are getting value for money !\n\nIf it is just surface staining I advise my patients to use a toothpaste containing Bicarbonate of soda and and electric toothbrush (you can get them as cheap as £12 now) this can work wonders too. Also a visit to a Dental Hygienist for a professional scale and polish can make a big difference .\n\nHope this helps

The one's you get from your dentist where they make a mold of your teeth and you wear them at night work really good.  The disadvantages are they may make your teeth sensitive if you overuse them.  But them you can just stop using it for a while and your teeth become normal again.  Don't buy Crest Whitestrips, they are horible to apply, they keep on slipping and I never noticed much difference with them.\nThe Laser Whitening is the best, but it is expensive and can burn your gums if they don't aim the laser properly.  But it was amazing how white they can get the teeth.  It doesn't last that long though if you drink pop and coffee.

Hi, Crest white Strips will take the enamel(sp?) of of your teeth. The enamal protects your teeth. I recommend not to use them. It works beutifully, but here are some homemade methods that are great!\n\n1)It's not a myth...baking powder works like magic, I personally have used it. Baking soda is a natural bleach, so it actually can not do any harm for you!\n\n2)Have you tried hydrogen peroxide (Sp?). It too works great. If you mix them together on your toothbrush you will have a white smile. (It is recommend not to use the hydrogen poroxide more than 3 times a week)\n\nAnyways, give it a try...and I hope it helps! \n\nP.S. By the way many people use lemon juice. DO NOT use this. It is too citrusy for your teeth and can eat away at them. Good luck! :)

You could try Rapid Clear made by Neutrogena. It worked the best for me considering all the other OTC products.

I have 6 and I love them....I don't have to bleach anymore (except surrounding teeth to keep them matching) and my temperature sensitivity is gone.  And of course they are beautiful.  I highly recommend them!  If you want to see my before and after pics let me know.

I know you said excluding toothpaste, but have you tried the new Luminous?  I was in the same boat, and it was suggested to me, and I am very happy with the results!\n\nSorry!

Crest white strips professional or premium.. . their a little expensive but work very well and the whiteness lasts. YOu can get the highest potency from your dentist and other levels straight from the drug store

Electric toothbrushes are great.  I love the oral-b pulsar.  It is like a regular toothbrush, but has the added benefit of movement.  It is compact in size and design and does not cost and arm and a leg.  It is about six dollars in any drug or grocery store.  Every dental professional has an opinion about what toothbrush they think is best and works well.  I say as long as it is a SOFT brush, then it really does not matter what type you use as long as you are brushing the right way and taking enough time (2 minutes) brushing.  Also you have to floss everyday, brushing alone does not do it.

I brush twice a day morning and night, with "Arm and Hammer" peroxide and baking soda. Peroxide whitens your teeth. If you really want white teeth talk to your dentist and ask them about teeth whitening, they whiten your teeth with lasers. I wouldn't use the whitening strip, they eat away the enamal on your teeth. I would get it done professionally.

Do you know the reason for the staining? Is it something fairly new, like from coffee or tea? If that is the case then I would recommend a stronger whitening agent. Rembrandt whitening toothpaste works really well, or try any of the whitening strips.\nIf the stains have been a life long problem though none of these may work. It could have been caused from antibiotics that either your mother took while you were in utero, or that you took as an infant while your teeth were still forming. A side effect of certain antibiotics is to cause the enamel of the teeth to stain a yellowish color and only a dentist can do anything for that. If after trying the whitening products at home for a while you don't see any improvement, bring it up to your dentist at your next appointment. He may be able to offer some more suggestions. (other than surgery)

I not suggest to use products to whitening your teeths. In future you will have problems. The enamel will be atacked, then will appear dental decays and other problems.(I am dental technician)

Crest White Night worked really well for me. You could try that. I once tried a cheaper brand type whitener, and it caused my teeth to become brittle and one of my front teeth chipped, so be careful what types you use! Good Luck!

Crest Whitestrips worked incredibly well for me. I was given whitener by an orthodontist that didn't work for me at all (it was the gel that you put in the trays), but after using Crest Whitestrips I was entirely satisfied. Even better, I didn't have to whiten them again for sixth months, just as the box advertised. I would definitely recommend these.\n\nIf your teeth are overly sensitive, however, you might encounter a problem, but that's the case with many teeth whitening solutions. Just keep that in mind!

I've tried everything you can think of. None of them really work too well on my teeth but I smoke alot. My husbands aunt use to work at dentist office, and she said none of the teeth whitener are really good for your gums. Especially the ones in the little bottle where you paint it on your teeth. I used that gel stuff one time, you put the gel in the tooth tray put it in your mouth and it has a blue light that helps brighten your teeth. It didn't help me at all. It only turned gums white for a few hours and made my teeth and gums really irritated. I find that the toothpaste that come in the tube with orange top, (i don't remember if it's made by crest or colgate) and it has extreme clean on it and it's orange flavored. That works awesome on my teeth. Also I just tried another tooth paste made by colgate. It comes in a purple tube. It's called colgate Luminous paradise fresh. That works pretty good too. It has an awesome flavor. It makes you wanna brush your teeth 6 times a day instead of 3. It strengthens and whitens your tooth enamel with fluoride mineral formulation. But the best one that works for me (you have to remember everybodys body is different and acts differently to certain products) is that extreme orange flavored toothpaste.

I'm a dentist.\n\nGenerally, dentists and hygienists recommend electric brushes to patients specifically because they are more gentle on the teeth and gums.\n\nSonicare is an excellent toothbrush.  I use it myself and recommend it to my patients (whenever I talk about toothbrushes, that is).  Oral-B has a longstanding history of making dental products, and it is very unlikely that they would manufacture a product that wasn't similarly gentle to the gums.  You may have been using it wrong.\n\nIn either case, as long as you're happy with the Sonicare, stick with it.
