Teeth Bleaching Products

What are some side effects to bleaching your teeth? And what’s the common price for bleaching them? I know it all varies depending on which treatment and all but you can anybody give me a price range? From cheapest to one of the most expensive treatments.

Thanks. :]

In order to whiten teeth, a solution opens tiny tubes in the enamel surface. The solution works by bleaching the yellow dentin under the enamel. Your teeth may be temporarily more sensitive during the bleaching process, but it is usually only temporary and there are products available to reduce sensitivity.

Take-home bleach trays (custom fitting from a dentist) can cost between $100 to $250. In office bleach (such as Zoom brand) can be much more expensive (about $600 in some areas), but aren’t much better as to final results.

Brushing teeth with braces involves tilting the toothbrush down above each bracket, and then tilting the toothbrush upward below each bracket to free debris and brush away bacteria.

I tried the crest white strips but after about an hour of using one, my teeth started to hurt really bad and i think it is because it was wearing away my enamel. But does teeth bleaching do the same? Or is it worst?

no, it doesn’t wear down the enamel it just opens up the "pores" of the the enamel called enamel rods. So air and stuff makes your teeth more sensitive. You could try using a sensitivity toothpaste while you are bleaching. Only bleach for an hour, that is when you’ll get the most benefit of the bleaching and hopefully decreasing the time you have the bleach on your teeth will reduce the sensitivity. Good Luck. The sensitivity will get better or go away but the beautiful white results won’t, so it’s worth the temporary nuisance.

I’m a Starbucks addict. Naturally coffee drinking has left my teeth not as white as I would like. They aren’t bad. But I feel like they should be whiter. Especially for my wedding day. Have any of you used any of the whiting strips/trays? Which would you use and which would you skip? Thanks!

Ive used Crest White strips…they work really good and they are affordable. Also try brushing with a whitening toothpaste. Brush 2x a day and you’ll see results.

What is the effect of bleaching your teeth (like with PlusWhite) while you have gingivitis?

it can worsen gingivitis because teeth whitening chemicals cause gum inflammation even if you have no gum problems in the first place.

before you go for any "beauty" enhancement procedure, i would highly suggest basic dental care such as oral prophylaxis. for what is the point of whitening your teeth if you neglect their supporting structures. i know of people who regularly use whitening solutions and yet neglect their decayed teeth which need restoration. i really cannot comprehend this.

My orthodontist told me the other day while I was having my braces tightened that I do have decalcification/scars. While I know that they are NON-reversible, a dental hygenist friend of mine told me that next year when I get my braces off just get my teeth bleached? Will that blend the scars in or just make them whiter?ANYONE OUT THERE WITH SCARS FROM BRACES!

There is a new creme toothpaste over the counter for decalcification marks. Also ask your dental hygienist about new gels that are coming out all the time for that problem. I’ve been out of the field for 2yrs and the last one was Omni gel it worked great, patients got great results. First fix the decalcification then bleach if necessary.

Dr. Tom Hedge of TheDentistryChannel discusses the different types of teeth bleaching systems available. Today, there is even hope for very dark tetracycline stained teeth.
