I didn't like the hassle of "painting" the gooey gel on my teeth and having that "I need to spit" feeling everytime. also, I didn't follow its direction of dipping the brush in the gel for each tooth. anyway, I'm thinking about the strips that you stick on yer upper and lower teeth at night. but they seem to cost quite a bit. I wanna know if they actually work before I spend that kind of dough on them. so what brand and what type (e.g., gel brush-on or clear strip stick-on)?
btw, I don't smoke or drink coffee, just tea. and my teeth aren't as bad as this post may suggest  I just want some pearly whites that people on tv have! |
Some people are more prone to teeth staining than others. I have a friend who neither drinks coofee/tea nor smokes, and has yellow stains. I also have them who smoke and drink coffee/tea and they are white as can be.
To get them as white as the TV people have them, better be prepared to spend some $$$$$.
A visit to a dentist to buy a kit with the gel is your best bet, spending around 200.00 for the template and the kit(I have one). Worked pretty well, although none of the techniques is hassle free and they all seem uncomfortable.
The one I have requires you to sleep with them on overnight, if possible. They fit real snug and don't bother me in terms of gell spilling out causing me to swallow that crap.
