What's the most efficient and cheapest way for teeth whitening? Peroxide + baking soda paste or whitestrips

Question

I mean H2O2 with like less than 8% hydrogen peroxide.

Answer 1

Mixing baking soda and peroxide can burn your tissue and cause serious abrasion if not used correctly.

Using toothpaste isn't too harsh, if you use it as directed.

The bleaching strips are good and work effectively, but they don't last long. Then you are back spending more money for another box.

The least expensive and most practical way is to see your dentist and have bleaching trays made to fit your teeth precisely, and have your teeth professionally whitened.

The trays are used for many years, not just for the initial bleaching, but for touch ups later when "you" feel your teeth are getting darker. The teeth do darken with time, which is a natural process.

The trays will be slightly expensive initially, somewhere from the $200-400 hundred range. So be sure to check around with several dentists for a deal, they are all made about the same, the only difference is the price. This may sound expensive, but this also includes the bleaching solution and several office visits to check on your progress plus an initial exam. When you start adding up the cost of the strips, the bleaching trays is the better deal.

Your dentist will get your teeth to their lightest and brightest shade with a bleaching solution that will be less harmful to your tissue and teeth than any over the counter systems or strips. Your dentist will also check your teeth and tissue for any existing problems that bleaching may accelerate or irritate.

Your trays are yours to keep, so the only “extra” expense, will be to purchase more bleaching solution over the years as needed and at an affordable cost, straight from your dentist.

Additional information: Even diluting the peroxide when using it as you've suggested it is still inadvisable, when mixed with baking soda due to the harshness of this mixture and the possible consequences of irreversible damage.

Answer 2

Crest White Strips, and follow the directions. Brush with Colgate Whitening Paste.

Answer 3

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 information at http://www.aches.in/toothwhitening.html

Answer 4

I reckon the best way is the way that doesnt risk tooth damage by messing around with enamel on your teeths surface. I know peroxide works very well and gave me long last results i got it from http://www.teeth-whitening.com.au it took about 2 days of use to get about 6 shades whiter

hope this helps

Answer 5

No, traditional peroxide is too damaging to your teeth. (A baking soda paste is ok to use.)

The Crest White Strips do a good job. You can get those for around $30.
