Bleaching and Zoom work great!  Capping if your teeth are really messed up.  Cheapest is getting trays and bleach from your dentist.  My teeth were orange and are now so white everyone asks what I do! I did bleaching and Zoom.  Zoom took 1 hour and made my teeth sensitive but worked really well.  A lot of dentists offer free Zoom to move to their practice.  If not, you can find it for a few hundred bucks.  Bleaching took about two weeks to see a huge difference but it has lasted for over 6 months now and I only did one touch-up since.  Zoom lasts for years and years depending on coffee, wine and tomato sauce consumption.

Please ask your dentist before you try any home remedies, some may damage your teeth badly, and that could make them looking worse than where you're at now.  I personally do not recommend "Zoom" whitening or any 'in office' whitening treatments.  They do not last very long, are costly and could make your teeth very sensitive.  I do recommend over the counter products that contain 15% or less 'carbamide peroxide'. (hydrogen peroxide products are not very temperature stable, and so it is hard to tell whether they are damaged goods.)  \nOther than bleaching you teeth you could have bonding or veneers done.  Veneers are also high $$, but are very nice, and you could drastically improve your appearance.  Some veneers don't even involve drilling or numbing ("Lumineers").  I would ask your dentist what he suggests...

Teeth loose their whiteness due to age,\ncavities and eatingfood like coffee,tea,\ncola which stain the teeth.Tobacoo and \nsome antibiotics also cause stains.\nCommercial tooth whiteners use hydrogen\nperoxide and are expensive and inconvenient.\nA cheap and natural tooth whitening home \nremedy uses few strawberries but certain \nprecautions have to be taken.I found the \ninformation at http://tinyurl.com/ep7yg

You should go to your dentist and have a cleaning so any extrinsic stains, caused by such things as smoking and drinking dark beverages, can be removed.  Also, try and avoid those things that cause staining of the teeth.  I would not advise using any whitening toothpastes.... they are not going to change the shade of your teeth & they are very abrasive and can be potentially harmful to the enamel of the teeth.  Make sure you have good oral hygiene habits by brushing 2-3 times per day, flossing at least once per day and seeing your dentist every 6 months for a cleaning and exam.  If you are interested in whitening, see your dentist as there are no over-the-counter whitening products that have been approved by the ADA (American Dental Association).

I use the Crest Premium Whitestrips and my mom noticed my teeth were whiter after only 4 days use (I don't live with her, I just visited after 4 days use.)  My dental hygenist noticed after I used the week's worth and it was about 3 months later.  I also use Aquafresh Extreme Whitening toothpaste, I don't think it helps much, but piece of mind.  Just as an FYI - I drink about 5 cups of coffee every week also and that doesn't help them stay white.

you can use  toothpaste with a whitener in it,   but if there are badly stained  only the dentist will be able to sort them\n good luck

Hey I got mine off about 5 months ago.  I just brushed three times a day.  This classmate had hers off about 1 1/2year ago and she had yellow teeth and a white squarish spots in the middle of each tooth.  I didn't want that for myself, It looked bad and nasty.  Like she didn't brush her teeth,  but it helped my teeth were good when i got them off.

Teeth are supposed to be naturally just a teensy weensy yellow, so don't mess up your teeth and make them unhealthy. Keep it the way they are (unless they are really badly colored ;-)).

1.  ngredients: bicarbonate of soda\nInstructions: bicarbonate of soda, not bakin soda that is different, brush your teeth, helps to remove calculate too, so then use dental floss, and then use your normal toothpaste, i do it every 15 days. because i smoke help me to keep my teeth white!\n\n2.  I used to have really yellow teeth from drinking so much coca-cola. I bought teeth whitening stuff from stores, but they wouldn't work. I looked on the ingrediants to see what was in it, and I saw hydrogen peroxide. So I took a swig of hydrogen peroxide, and swirled it around my mouth, (just like mouthwash) and left it in for a minute. I saw a difference in just 2 days!\n\n3. My grandmother's home remedy for teeth whitening is as follows:\n\nmix on small plate the following\n1 tsp baking soda\ndash of salt\nthen add a few drops of white vinegar, which will foam.\n\nThen brush with toothpaste afterwards.\n\nIt works great! I've used this for last forty years.\n\n\n4.  Pour a little bit of hyrdogen peroxide on your toothbrush and then put some baking soda on top then just brush your teeth with it. Rinse your mouth when your done. (Note: it tastes really bad and do not swallow!!!)\n\n5.  Rub the inside of an orange peel on the teeth.\n\n6.  Believe it or not...strawberries will whiten your teeth. Rub fresh strawberry on your teeth daily and watch. A strawberry may also be mashed and applied with a tooth brush. \n\n7.  hey its as simple as 100% Apple Cider Vingar brush your teeth in this not only does it help to whiten your teeth your going to think you been to have them cleaned. Safe and sanitary\n\n8.  eating lots of apples especially after a meal really helped whiten my teeth\n\n\nhope some of those help!!!

This happened to me a few times before I realized something. Don't brush your teeth anywhere near the time when you want to use the white strips--I'm talking many hours. If I brushed my teeth in the morming and used whitestrips in the late afternoon, I was fine. Otherwise it burned!

No whitening is permanent but you can help it in lasting longer.  Stay away from smoking, dark colored drinks such as colas, coffee and even tea.  If you nust drink those things use a straw to get it away from the front of your teeth.  The whitestrips are the same as the whitening you will recieve in the dental chair just without the ultra violet light this is why they take longer to do.  Use a whitening tooth paste to follow up each night because all foods can stain if you dont brush properly.

The best way is to use a combination of techniques.  Crest Preminum Plus whitening strips work good, but can cause sensitivity.  Dentists use hydrogen peroxide gel to bleach teeth.  Toothpastes with hydrogen peroxide will aid in making your teeth shine.  My recommendation is to use Arm & Hammer whitening toothpaste, Listerine whitening mouthwash with Crest Premium Plus strips during the day and Crest Night Effects at night to make your teeth shine their best.

The only way to get your teeth super white is by bleaching or veneers. Whitestrips do not wear tooth enamel away. I'm a licenced dental hygienist and I use them all of the time. They do cause sensitivity though but it goes away. That is the cheapest route. The next step up is bleaching trays and in office whitening which is expensive and not worth the cost for the instant gratification. Whatever you do do not go crazy with whitening toothpaste.  This really does wear down enamel over time, esp. if you are scrubbing because you don't like the tooth color. All that makes toothpaste"whitening" is just abrasive stuff. Then you scrub off the enamel to expose the dentin which is naturally yellow in color. Sorry to ramble but I see this every day.

Not necessarily.  Your teeth could just be stained.  The colour of your teeth may be dependent on a number of things like diet or hygiene.
