Teeth whitening???....PLEASE HELP!?
Hi, I'm a dentist so trust me when I tell you not to use over the counter strips. They contain Phosphoric acid and you do not want an acid attack on your teeth enamel. Only two products are safe: carbamide peroxide -for home use- and Hydrogen peroxide for dental chair use. As a dentist I like the second one because patients can't control the amount of product they use. Ask your dentist about Hydrogen peroxide products. I got my teeth bleached and I can assure you it's a safe procedure if the professional knows what he/she's doing. Good luck!
Reply:Get it done by a dentist...Much better results...
Reply:My dentist made me trays (impressions of my teeth) which put on and put Bravo! whitening solution in. It worked in about 2 weeks. It did last. It costed me around $300.
