Veneers
Veneers are an in-office procedure that produces immediate results because the patient’s teeth are actually covered over with enamel-like composite to form a false front of white. Veneers are quite expensive to have done because they can only be done at a dentist’s office. However, for those who want immediate results and have the money to spare, veneers are a relatively painless and quite easy procedure that last for a very long time, and unlike real tooth enamel, will not stain easily if at all. Veneers can be put on or taken off at any time, as well.

Laser Teeth Whitening
Laser teeth whitening is another in-office procedure that is done by professionals because using a laser on teeth or any part of the body takes training and professional skill. This procedure is also very expensive because the equipment used is quite expensive to own and operate. The laser light works with bleaching or peroxide solutions to brighten and whiten the smile. Depending on the amount of discoloration, your teeth will look noticeably whiter in one session, and some people only require one session to get the white teeth they are looking for quickly.

Whitening Strips
Whitening strips are an at-home teeth whitening treatment that can be very effective, though they take considerably longer than in-office treatments. Because the solution used for whitening strips is generally much milder than the ones used in dentists’ offices, results can take up to three weeks for these strips. However, considering the amount of time it takes whitening toothpastes and mouth washes to show results (typically at least 12 weeks) whitening strips are very much quick-result treatments. They are also considerably cheaper than in-office cosmetic dentistry procedures, which gives them an added advantage over in-office procedures. The strongest whitestrips on the market are Crest Whitestrips Supreme.

At-Home Kits
There are other at-home kits that are a sort of blend between in-office procedures and whitening strips. These kits usually contain mouth trays with solution to squeeze into the trays and then you wear the mouth tray for a certain amount of time a few times a week. These kits come with some risks, like irritated gums and sensitivity, but usually with a smaller amount of solution these go away. They are also much cheaper than in-office procedures and can show results in as little as one week, but usually no later than four weeks. Mouth trays that come with these kits can be silicone or heat sink/thermoforming, meaning they are heated and then bitten into to form around your teeth. A good choice are the Whiter Smile Premium Home Whitening Kits.

Some of the whitening products that are available for home use are:

• Boil and bite trays
• Whitening strips
• Pre-filled trays
• Tray systems
• Whitening pens
• Ionic light systems
• Toothpastes
• Mouth rinses

From all of these choices the most popular products are whitening strips, pre-filled trays, toothpastes and mouth rinses.

Although each of these methods provide basically the same results although some are actually better than others. No two people’s results will be the same and most neglect to consider this fact. These methods are designed to whiten your teeth gradually which means it may be a week or longer before you notice the effects and some will see results sooner. This is due to the difference in each person’s genetics. Some people simply have less white teeth than others meaning they naturally have a darker color to their teeth. For these people these types of whiteners do not offer the same results as they do for those who have naturally whiter teeth.

Many of the tray systems such as the boil and bite trays, pre-filled trays and tray systems offer some hope for those who have naturally darker teeth. Some of the tray systems also provide a remineralization for the teeth that helps fill in microscopic defects in the teeth. These defects can capture tiny particles of food and bacteria that can make teeth darker as well. Some provide a desensitizing agent that prevents your teeth from being too sensitive to hot and cold foods as well as cold air. A number of these are appropriate to be used over night to help whiten your teeth while you sleep.

Although these methods are available for purchase at most supermarkets as well as online, many people would rather use their own home method of whitening their teeth. Before manufacturers began making home whiteners and whitening toothpastes, people were forced to invent their own methods of whitening teeth. The best known home concoction is a thin mixture of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to brush your teeth with. One way of flavoring this is to add a drop of cinnamon oil to the peroxide. You can of course use other flavorings that do not contain dyes. Brushing your teeth with this three or four times per week will help you whiten your teeth and keep them white in between dentist visits. Other natural ways of whitening teeth is by refraining from eating foods with dyes in them, acids and sugars. Apples are nature’s natural cleaner so by eating plenty of apples will help clean your teeth as well as whiten them. Good oral health is also important for white and healthy teeth.
