Teeth Whitening

Hi all,
I wanted to know what is the best method of teeth whitening. I called the dentist and since I do not have dental insurance, the charges are crazy. So, do teeth whitening strips really work and if so, how long can you see the results in.. I have never used them so I am clueless. Any other cheaper methods?

Some dentists charge 20$ for a tube of at home gel. However, getting the bleaching trays made, might cost 100$. It makes your teeth sensitive though so don't overdo it.
Those strips work but its not a huge difference. It is maybe a shade or two so its not worth it in my opinion.

Mahika, don't know where you are, but at least in USA, teeth whitening is not covered through dental insurance anyways, so even if you had it, you would be paying from the whitening from your own pocket.

The Crest strips work really well but some ppl have problems with sensitivity when using them..

Round here you can get your teeth bleached by a professional for as little as £100.. Am thinking of doing that as I love the results from the strips but can't always be bothered with them..

Mahika, with the strips you can notice a result right after the first use.. I did..

I'm looking into this too. Mahika I haven't been able to find the Crest strips in Pakistan so far. Have you seen them anywhere? I have been looking into laser whitening now

I heard they can be found at high-end pharmacies in defence type areas.

Thanks for the responses, I'll look into everything.
At the moment I am in Canada, and upon calling 3 different dental offices, the prices ranged between $300-600.

For teeth whitening this is very useful and easy tip ; Mix 1 tsp of lemon juice with 1 tsp of salt. Apply this teeth whitening paste on your yellow teeth.

Deeba, which ones did you use? I tried the Crest 3D ones for a while and all I got for my pains was extra sensitive teeth and the inability to enjoy ice cream.

I'm in Canada as well and my dentist charges about the same for it, but she also has the home application kit for $100. Might want to look into that.
