5 Secrets to Brighter Whiter Teeth
Everyone wants a brighter and whiter smile. Having one can increase self confidence in all aspects of your daily life. And you'll smile when you learn how easy it can be to get whiter teeth, without spending large amounts of money to do so. Here are a few suggestions to help get you the bright, shining smile that you desire.
Use whitening toothpastes. A tube of toothpaste is only a few dollars at the store. This is probably the least expensive method available to consumers. It is also very easy to use. You just have to brush your teeth like you normally would. Ideally, at least twice a day will produce teeth whitening results. A word of caution however -- the whitening toothpaste will only whiten your teeth a couple of shades. This will also take a little longer than other methods.
A second option to whiten teeth is to use whitening strips. Whitening strips are easy to apply to your teeth. The strips are applied to your teeth for only about half an hour a day. This is a relatively short amount of time. Also, they are very effective in whitening your teeth and show noticeable results in only a few weeks. The only downside is that the whitening strips will set you back anywhere from twenty-five to forty-five dollars.
A third option is to use bleaching trays. Bleaching trays are available through your dentist and are custom fitted to your teeth. This ensures that the whitening gel is more concentrated and should produce better results. It is not necessary to use the bleaching trays more than a few times a week to get results. However, these trays are pricy and do not always work better than the supermarket whitening techniques.
If only a few teeth are in need of whitening, paint-on whiteners may be an option. If you know which teeth are troublesome or look odd next to other whiter teeth, you can simply paint these teeth to match the others. Be careful using this method though. If the whitening solution does not bond well to teeth, it will simply wash away with saliva. This will mean that you are spending money on a product that is not making your teeth any whiter.
Finally, to keep your teeth whiter, minimize your consumption of corrosive drinks (like soda) and use a straw. I know this sounds simple but it can really help. Using a straw keeps these drinks from splashing against your teeth and discoloring them. Soda and other corrosive drinks are not especially good for you anyway and should be avoided if possible. But if you can't eliminate them from your diet, you can at least minimize the discoloring that they cause by simply using a straw.
There are many options available that will whiten your teeth. Be a smart consumer and do your homework before going out and buying a whitening product. Also ask yourself how much you are willing to spend to get that brighter smile. You should be able to find a nice tradeoff between results and price. Whitening your smile is only a treatment away!
