Does anyone know of any tooth whitening products that actually work? I want to have whiter teeth for my wedding photos, but I cannot afford to pay $800 for zoom whitening at my dentist. Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Teeth whitening for my wedding?
Well, zoom at my dentist was only $500 (in Chicago burbs) and it included the trays and DayWhite to keep whitening afterwards. It was the best $500 I've ever spent. HUGE difference in just one day.
I'd price shop the Zoom with other dentists in the area. The trays from the dentist also seem to work really well, just not as quickly as the zoom.
I tried the crest whitestrips and didn't notice a difference at all, which is why I decided to go for the Zoom.
Seriously, if you can swing the expense somehow, it is worth it. Price shop first though!
Reply:My husband and I did the crest white strips a few months before we got married. I think they worked out fine.
Reply:If you have the time... Crest whitening stripes work. Also you might ask you dentist what he recommends.
Reply:Besides the white strips, which work okay, go into your dentist for a good cleaning a day or two beforehand. Just a simple cleaning is very helpful get all the plaque off! Worked great for mine!

It will run you a few hundred, but in my opinion its worth it. OH, and if you get on their mailling list you'll get special offers. I did and got my 1st whitening for only $300.
Its done %26amp; over with in 1 hour. If you have sensitivity, its only for one or two days. And you only have to watch what you consume for 1 day after the process. Its really quick, which is why I feel it is worth it.
Reply:I don't reccomend the whitening products off the shelf. You can get a professional strength of the Crest White strips but here's the problem.......unless you have a perfect smile in the perfect size the strips will only cover a few teeth on the front of your mouth. What ends up happening is you have 5/6 really pretty white teeth...and the rest are the same as before and it shows in pictures.
Switch to a whitening toothpaste. Testing shows Ultrabrite is the best and talk with your photographer about whitening your teeth during post-production. It may cost a little extra but much better than using the cheapo Crest strips and having a half-white mouth and (some dentists say) damaging your enamel.
Reply:Go to ADA.org website. Search for DENTAL HYGIENE schools near you. Some have PUBLIC dental clinics. They do at home whitening kits for 100 bucks or less. Im in massachusetts and at my dental hygiene clinic at home whitening professional kit is only 50 bucks now! So if u live in Mass go to www.qcc.com and call the main number and ask for the dental clinic.
otherwise use Ultrabrite toothpaste (cheap and works best as reported by consumer reports magazine for whitening toothpastes). Or try crest white strips.
Teeth are not suppose to be white by the way. No long term stuides have been done about the safety of whitening teeth.
Reply:I used Crest whitestrips for a week and they really did whiten my teeth, the only thing is they weaken the enamel and now my teeth are quite sensitive (2 months later).
