When I was younger I took amoxicillin for ear aches. Once I reached to 3rd and 4th grade I had "freckles" on my teeth. Kids were relentless at making me miserable and making me feel bad about my teeth. I eventually got my teeth shaved down. Once they shaved the "freckles" off my teeth though my teeth turned this yellow color. I am now very conscience about my teeth. I have tried crest whitening strips and other home remedies but none seem to work, because my teeth are stained all the way through. I am wondering if there is anyway to get my teeth white thet doesnt cost tens of thousands of dollars (like veneers do). Please help I need some answers so I can let go of my teeth issues!

You can go to a cosmetic dentist, and they can do tooth bleaching, which is where they use super powerful bleach to affect what lies below the enamel. It's the not same thing as whitening. It's also kind of expensive.

The edges of your teeth do no contain nerves. If they are just smoothing the edges it should not hurt at all, but the noise may be a little unnerving. If they are taking enough off to reach the nerves they will give you an anesthetic just like when you have a cavity filled.

YOU WILL NEED VENEERS ON THE TEETH, THESE STAINS ARE INSIDE THE ENAMEL, SO IF YOU "SHAVE" YOUR TEETH THE STAINS BECOME WORSE. STAINS DUE TO TEH MEDICATION. GET VENEERS IT WILL HELP..IT S ALAYER OF PORCELAIN PLACE OVER THE TEETH.
