How can I whiten my teeth at home. I want what works best. My teeth need a lot of whittening without zoom. THanks =)
Answer:
Overall I would say that most of my patient's have had some measure of success with the Crest Whitestrips, some more than others. Our office uses Crest Supreme which are much stronger than what you can buy in a drugstore and don't cost that much more ($60.00 vs $30.00). You can purchase the drugstore version, but do yourself the favor of using them right after you get your teeth cleaned as any staining and buildup (tartar or plaque) will impede their ability to work. Also, don't use fluoride toothpaste before putting the strips on (same reason). In office whitening (like Zoom @about $500.00) can be expensive but does whiten quick. Custom made home trays are also costly but you will have them for a lifetime and just buy more whitening gel as needed. Most whitening toothpastes just remove stain on the surfaces of your teeth and therefore are not so effective. Whatever method you use it will not whiten your teeth for life, as you age your teeth will get darker and may need to be whitened again. Hope that helps!

Crest Premium Whitestrips worked very well for me, and only took about two weeks.

For our patients who does not want to spend a lot of money on the Zoom whitening, we recommend them to use the Crest whitening strips. You can get a good starter pack at Costco for $50 or you can go to Target or Wal Mart and get them for $30.
Coffee. Lots and lots of coffee is good for rapid and effective whitening.
