my teeth aren't fucking like corn on the cobb yellow or anything, but i'd like them to be whiter. does anyone have experience with anything? what should i try / what should i avoid?

It's cheaper and more effective to just find a dentist. Those white strips stuff wears out after a while, and you need to do it every day.

is the dentist procedure really worth it? have you done it?

[ChineseGuy]

No,but I know people who did. It's not painful or anything, but I was told it's cheaper and more effective. At least you don't need to put those white strips every night.

Avoid cigs ...in on informational thread.

im going to the dentist in a couple weeks and im probably going to get mine whitened...interested in how much $ it will be,hopefully someone will chime in with a estimate

[ChineseGuy]

I'm in Canada, so the price might be different, but my friend didn't tell me how much it cost anyways. You can always just call them and ask.

I've had it done at the dentist. It was the procedure where they put gel on your teeth and aim a light at them for a while. Awesome results, but when the dentist asks if you want painkillers, take them, no matter what. It may not happen to everyone, but my teeth were so sensitive afterwards I couldn't even get saliva on them. Like imagine sinking your teeth into ice cream. I had to resort to Ambien to just sleep it off, but it wasn't fun.

Edit: mine was a gift, but pretty sure it was $250-$300

I'm all for good hygiene, but don't get them unnaturally white. Nothing screams bag-of-douche more than teeth as shiny as freshly-waxed AW.

ah, that doesn't sound too bad i guess. i have some 'painkillers' just in-case. how much did the procedure run if you don't mind

edit: just saw the edit

[BTM]

I ninja edited...pretty sure 250-300

ninja edit: just saw your ninja edit acknowledging my ninja edit

[SantaPimp27]

I remember my mom doing it. I think it was ~$500

[FStop7]

go to the Mother Lode bar in West Hollywood and tell them you want your teeth whitened

[BillLee]

i also recommend the dentist procedure. I plan on whitening my teeth that way too.

I'm very sensitive about how my teeth look and I've tried couple of things to make it perfect white.
I can tell you that all the stuff out there you could buy at the store are really waste of money. I mean some of them really work but pain is just too much to endure. Those strip things are really annoying to wear and not so pleasant to do it every day and gel types are pretty effective but it hurts bad.

Bright smile is the one you should really use from dentist. It's usually around $300~400 and it works. It seems costly compare to other stuff but much easier and get the result done.
