Question: How can I whiten my teeth and have healthy gums before Feb 13th.?
I have a check-up at the dentist on the 13th. I want to have white teeth and healthy gums. I use toms toothpaste 3 times a day. And I also use Act restoring mouthwash 2 times a day. I can't afford any of the whiten products at the store.Health Question & Answer

Make a paste with peroxide and baking soda. Put this paste on your toothbrush and brush your teeth.

Buy some whitening strips. Whitening strips are quick and simple way to get whiter teeth. You stick the strips on your teeth for a few minutes and then take off. A lot of people do this on their way to work or school.

Use a whitening toothpaste. Brushing with a whitening toothpaste will gradually whiten your teeth. This is probably one of the least expensive ways of whitening your teeth.

Stop smoking. Cigarette smoke is a leading cause of teeth discoloration. You have a better chance of whitening your teeth if you stop smoking.

Go to a professional. A dentist can professionally whiten your teeth using a bleaching agent and a special light to speed up the process. This method usually costs around $500 per session and may whiten your teeth up to 15 shades.Health Question & Answer

If your teeth are really discolored, there really isn't a home remedy you can use that will make them shades and shades lighter. Mild abrasives like baking soda can help for some surface stains, but the dentist would be able to get more stains off your teeth in a cleaning than you could get off in two weeks with baking soda or even with a whitening toothpaste. Over time, you can correct some bad habits, though, that will help you: after a good cleaning, you can either cut down on or eliminate drinking coffee or, as some people who actually pay to have their teeth whitened do, drink your coffee through a straw (personally, I like my coffee too much to do that. I don't see how it would taste the same, and it seems sort of a lame thing to do, to me). You can quit smoking, if you smoke, and take it easy on things like dark colored sodas and fruit juices, which also stain teeth. In time, if you avoid staining them with food, drink, and things like smoking (which if you are young and/or you just don't, I hope you never do), your average whitening toothpaste will help keep them whiter.

As for healthy gums, if you brush and floss daily and have no major problems already, just keep it up. The Act is good stuff. It cuts down on sensitivity too, which is why I use it.Health Question & Answer

rub the inside of a banana peel on your teeth in a circular motion every day. if you can't do that, use a salt/baking soda mix to brush your teeth with once a week until then. the bana peel is less abrasive. just brush your gums with your toothbrush and you should be fine.Health Question & Answer
