Re: white teeth

Make sure you put them on straight or it can look like white lines on your teeth!

Re: white teeth

I used the whitestrips, they worked pretty good, but they made my teeth very sensitive. My dentists office has the zoom teeth whitening, and they give a discount to brides. my next appointment I will find out how much it costs.

Re: white teeth

I'm a registered dental hygienist. I look at teeth ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL day

If anyone has questions fm me!!!!! One office i work for has the whitening tray method he charges $300. I like the trays because you'll always have them so if you need a touch up ( Ex. Staining, or a party coming up etc.) You can always do a touch up!!!!! Note: If anyone has any crowns or white fillings in the front teeth That will not whiten! Natural teeth whiten not fillings. Most of my patients are unaware of that!!!!!!) It's normal to get sensitive during the whitening process just skip a day or two of whitening if this happens it normally doesn't last.

This is exactly what i suggest too. It's about 300 dollars cheaper to do it this way!

Re: white teeth

white strips don't work for me at all. My dentist's office do zoom lazer tooth whitening for $400 and I'm hoping they give me a discount. I also got a free custom tray tooth whitening kit last time I went in and if that doesn't take I'll go for the zoom.

I can't speak for all offices but i know most laser whitening places charge double the cost and you get sent home with trays anyway.
