Hello!

I’ve always been embarrassed to smile as my teeth are quite yellow. I can’t afford to have them whitened at the dentist but wonder if any mums out there have any other tricks for whitening? Thanks

  • Consult your dentist !
    In-Office Laser Whitening in a professional setting is one of the popular teeth whitening methods that some people believe is the most effective way to get a brighter smile. Using lasers and peroxide-based whitening agents in a professional setting, this teeth whitening method provides dramatic, lasting results.


  • defs only a dentist – the other products will damage your teeth enamel


  • I use a whitening toothpaste and it works quite well but l can really notice a difference when l get a normal clean from the dentist.


  • kits are cheap enough and easy to do it yourself at home. plus the stuff that the dentist uses, they have to put a protective layer of gel on your gums and use a light thing to activate the whitening product


  • I have heard rubbing banana peel on your teeth works. I haven’t tried it but I have heard it a few times.


  • there is a brand of whitener that my sister uses-( i think it’s colgate but i keep thinking that is a red container) and it’s made a noticeable difference to her teeth


  • Try whitening toothpaste and a mouthwash or rinse.


  • I use salt for whitening, my teeth love it. But I get tea stains and am trying to find a home remedy as can’t always afford a clean at the dentist.


  • Just be careful as I used a tooth whitening toothpaste, large tube, completely on my own and have ruined the enamel on my teeth. Seems it is just my bad luck, no remedy.


  • We use a whitening toothpaste, as per the directions on the packaging, every alternate day.


  • Some good advice here thanks ladies.


  • We use whitening toothpaste as just a normal part of our daily dental ritual along with the mouth wash that has whitening properties and once a year I buy a whitening teeth kit for each of us. Also pop along to your dentist for a good scale and clean.


  • A whitening toothpaste is your best bet, use it everyday and you should notice a difference. Personally the teeth of those actors and presenters on tv today just look way over the top. Baby teeth aren’t even that white.


  • We use equal parts coconut oil and baking soda mixed together and a drop of oul peppermint oil.


  • Check with a few different dentists because whitening treatments are no longer as expensive as they used to be. I had the trays made especially for my teeth and had at home and in dentist kits and it cost me in total $105. Now that I have the trays i just get more whitening treatments and brighten them up yearly and a kit costs $65 and lasts me just over 2 years.


  • Hey there Cherz. Some time ago I mean a few years (as I don’t drink red wine anymore) I had red wine build up stains, as well as coffee on my teeth and tried the method you described and it most certainly does work. I had been desperate and ringing around to get a good price but back then tooth whitening was even more expensive than it is now and I saved myself hundreds of dollars. Great advice from Cherz.


  • You can get some reasonably price toothpastes now they help


  • the best inexpensive thing would be to buy the pack online and do the moulds i got mine for $66 try buyinvite they always have good deals. google ice white teeth


  • My advice is actually a caution to you. I to decided I wanted whiter teeth and used a whitening toothpaste for quite a while and I have now irreversibly damaged the enamel on my teeth. Just be cautious with what you do. Good luck.


  • I had mine cleaned and a fluoride treatment at the dentist today and it made a huge difference – much whiter and cleaner looking.
