Second hand smoking would not have caused that - do you drink a lot of tea/ coffee? A lot of foods stain teeth. But there is a cheap and quick remedy! Add a pinch of baking soda to your toothpaste once a week 0NLY when you brush. Results in about 4 brushes. To keep your teeth looking good, try and rinse your mouth well, if not brush it after meals. I started using this a while ago and though I did not have very yellow teeth, my colleagues were all asking how my teeth were so white. Got them some soda and they are brushing away :)

First of all: Second hand smoking does not make your teeth yellow. It is awful for your lungs and heart though. If your exposed to it that much, there's really no difference between you and the smoker, you're both breathing in the smoke it. BUT the SMOKER will have stained teeth & yellow teeth.

If you don't smoke then you shouldn't have this problem...But it could be genetics (passed on from your parents) or you aren't brushing enough.

Crest Whitestrips are very good but if your teeth are a dark yellow then they won't really help. They will lighten up a bit but I guarantee you there will be no movie star whiteness :( You would either have to repeat this process for a year, buying a boc of whitestrips every other month but the outcome would be slow and expensive. It's about 30 dollars per box.

Note-The whitening tooth paste and brush on gel DOES NOT work.

1. If you want the sparkling white teeth, you'll need to get them done professionally. There's a product called "Zoom Whitening", available at most dental offices. It's pricey though.

2. They also have arches availble where they take a imprint of your mouth and create an arch for your top and bottom teeth. Then every night you swirt a special whitening gel into the archs and place in your mouth for about an hour. These cost 100 per arch.

Since you have described your teeth a very dark yellow, I believe 1 and 2 are the only ways to effectively whiten your teeth.

Good Luck!

Comment- If your walked across the entire world, you would never find a free way to whiten teeth. If you want results, you have to pay!

use Colgate Strong Teeth toothpaste. also some salt wd help to clean up the dirt particles between ur teeth and use ur fingers to remove dirt accumulated but not reached by ur toothbrush. Gargle with llight warm water. Let me now see ur sparkling teeth!

Buy tooth paste with baking soda and peroxide
I think crest sells something like that
and then use the white stripes
and brush your teeth after every meal
also stay away from things like soda..they break down your teeth

Crest white strips work really good but there are severe side effects like your super sensitive to hot and cold and your teeth ache wicked bad. Vote me best please.
