Can you recommend a whitening toothpaste that really works?

I advise my patients to use \n\nColgate Sensation Deep Clean Whitening\n\nThis has Bicarbonate of soda in it but does not have the strong taste that Arm and Hammer has.\n\nIt is very mildly abrasive, enough that it will remove staining but not damage the enamel on your teeth.\n\nBeware of using Pearl Drops, Eucryl or other so called tooth polishes. They are too abrasive to be used regularly and make the staining worse eventually by roughening the enamel so the stain sticks all the more.\n\nIf it's any recommendation, I use this myself too!\n\np.s. Crest Whitening Strips are NOT available in the UK, the Americans have not been reading the questions again...........

Use Toothpaste. Seriously, no joke, toothpaste works.

I'd say the Colgate lemon toothpaste.

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.

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.

Listerine Whitening Rinse is great.  You will see an immediate difference.  I can't recommend this stuff enough.  Also it is not as expensive as Crest Whitening Strips.

How about $6 for very white teeth?  I have used "Dr. George's Dental White", and people actually ask me about my teeth and how I did it.\n\nI recommend just buying the "refill" and swishing it around in your mouth for 15 min every few days.  I do it while I'm in the shower.\n\nYou can buy the product in some drugstores or here:\n\nhttp://www.drgeorges.com/buy-teeth-whitening-online.asp

you can go to the dentist, they have a special technique for whitening theeths. although, this will damage the immunisation of them in the future. the effect is great on spot, but on long term it is not recommended.

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.

It does also eat away the glue. Tooth whitening strips are NOT healthy at all. The best way to whiten your teeth is through frequent brushing/flossing. I recommend the Braun OralB rechargeable brush. It works great! Also, go to your dentist for a whitening treatment. Store bought treatments decalcify your teeth greatly!

I have tried plain old (white) toothpaste at night and by the morning they dry up some, just be sure to wash gently with warm water using a non irritating soap, such as Purpose Soap.  Hope this helps.

hydrogen peroxide and baking soda.  Peroxide is all that's in those teeth whiteners anyway.

Please please please do not waste your money on this product. I recomend you try a whitening toothpaste for minor stains opposed to the rinse. It is all just a gimmick and will not work. What a mouth rinse does is reduce microbial germs in the mouth and freshens breath, it does not and will not whiten your teeth. Hope this helps, Good luck!!!

Get ZOOM whitening from the dentist if you can afford it. They use that on all the makeover shows. If you gotta go low budget, use Crest whitening strips....they work too!!! But you have to use them everyday!!

I am not sure about using herbal medicine to whiten your teeth, but Tom's of Maine makes some wonderful natural whitening toothpaste. I prefer the mint kind, but for people who like licorice there is a fennel one.

I recommend you see your dentist if you wnat to whiten your teeth and yes, you will have good results.  The cost will vary depending on what part of the U.S. you live in.  I do not advise any whitening products available over-the-counter as there are none that are approved by the ADA (American Dental Association).  The only whitening products that have been approved by the ADA are available only at your dental office.
