Does this remain stains or just cover them up? Is there any way of actually remaining the stains so the teeth are naturally white?
Most over-the-counter whiteners just focus of the front teeth. Is there any procedures that do the full mouth?
Thanks!

THE WHITENING PROCEDURES WORK BY BLEACHING THE TEETH. THEY DO NOT COVER UP THE STAINED TEETH. THE POPULAR OTC PRODUCTS GENERALLY COVER THE FRONT TEETH BECAUSE REACHING THE BACK TEETH IS RATHER IMPRACTICAL, AND THESE TEETH ARE NOT VISIBLE TO OTHERS WHEN YOU SMILE. THE FULL MOUTH BLEACHING MAY BE DONE IN THE OFFICE OR AT HOME WITH SPECIALLY FABRICATED TRAYS. THOUGH THERE ARE SEVERAL OTC PRODUCTS TO BLEACH YOUR TEETH AT HOME THESE ARE NOT CUSTOM MADE FOR YOUR MOUTH AND CANNOT CONTROL THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE WHITENING MATERIAL TO THE SURFACE OF THE TEETH.

Teeth loose their whiteness due to age,
cavities and eatingfood like coffee,tea,
cola which stain the teeth.Tobacoo and
some antibiotics also cause stains.
Commercial tooth whiteners use hydrogen
peroxide and are expensive and inconvenient.
A cheap and natural tooth whitening home
remedy uses few strawberries but certain
precautions have to be taken.I found the

Most product focus on bleaching the stains that are found on your teeth. The best (and cheapest) way to have heathy white teeth is to stay away from foods that stain (the biggest being coffee and cigarettes) and brush after every meal and floss.
If I were you, I wouldn't worry about bleaching the teeth nobody will see.

I just had my teeth whitened at my dentist. I used the Zoom product. It worked great. And only 400, and you take home a customized tray with zoom solution to wear at night.
I love it. Take care of your teeth.
