Woah! You have shiny teeth

Ways to get the pearly whites you've always wanted

Everyone hates when their teeth are stained or just not as white as your friends. Perfect models and actresses have bright, straight, perfect teeth so why can't we all have that?

If you're feeling embarrassed by your teeth, you can try whitening them with some products found in your local drug store.

The first product is Crest Daily Multi-Care Whitening Strips. They take five minutes a day and come in 42-day boxes and each day has a top and bottom strip for your teeth. Personally, I would give this product four out of five. It is not really a super whitening product that will whiten your teeth quickly, but it is meant for daily up keep. It is also relatively expensive. It costs about forty dollars per package.

The next product is Listerine Whitening Strips. They dissolve quickly, so you don't have to wait long. It takes about two weeks to get good results. They also get rid of germs that cause bad breath. They only cost twenty eight dollars per package and have two week's worth in them. Personally, I give this product a five out of five because it seems to be easy and works well.

Using the products above to whiten your teeth may not be the thing for you. There is another remedy that you may be willing to try. You can get your teeth whitened by a professional. Although it does cost a lot it has been rated a five, and depending on where you get the whitening done the procedure could take up to an hour or more. You can have a totally new smile if you try this type of whitening.

The whitening products I mentioned above are a great way to avoid dental whitening if you can't afford it. I suggest trying the products first because they are cheaper. Either way, your smile will be brighter and better altogether.

i have not tried dental whitening yet
i might though
As a dental assistant I just wanted to let you guys know that
whitening your teeth a lot is bad for them, and that younger
kids/teenagers (under 16)should really not use the whitening
products at all. Although, I will say that once in a while isn't
so bad, and it is nice how easy they have made it.
I've tried Listerine Whitening and I am proud to say that it's a
very good product! It's also very safe and easy to use. Crest
Whitestrips are somewhat of a hassle since the strips have to be
taken out after 30 minutes, but not with Listerine Whitening
dissolving strips!Try them today!
you have tried these two whiteners but you have never tried dental
whitening??? Does that even make sense?
I've got a bleaching agent... Its like a gel, u put on ur teeth,
can't recall the name though! But works wounders! No, it's not
that stuff with like the "brush" to brush on your teeth either..
argh, If i think of the name all leave it on here.
yes, i'm the writer & i have
i have never tried dental whitening though
Only two products, hm. I'm wondering (and I would like you to get
back to me on this): have you tried these two whiteners?
