I use that aswell but just alternate between both lol.

Listerine is good for fighting plaque and fresh breath but if we're talking purely teeth whitening, Hydrogen peroxide is the better option.

Use both for max results.

You're teeth don't look bad in all honesty.

I have no experience with braces though tbh so can't give much advice but I'd probably still recommend an electric toothbrush if you're not using one, just use it on a low setting. And I also recommend investing in a waterpik flosser but again on a low setting.

I use to get lots of plaque build up when using a manual brush and floss, switching to electric has been a game changer in all honesty.

Will look into the waterpik. What's the fastest way I can turbowhiten them once the braces come off?

Had jacked up teeth until last year. My two front teeth didn't line up, one was set back from the other so it looked like I had a buck tooth. Chipped the back one and had to get a crown. Had them make the crown a little thicker than usual to line up with the other tooth. Now my smile is even.

Wife is currently doing Invisalign to close a gap between her front teeth. She's only in month 2 of 8 so we will see how it goes

Baking soda toothpaste twice a day and 3-6% Hydrogen peroxide 2-3 times a day.

I dont see the point in getting them professionally whitened as they literally use the same ingredients as above but charge 10x the price.

Brb spending literally 5 quid on the basics while they charge £200-300 lmao.

That being said still go to the dental hygienist every 6 months for a deep clean (not whitening) as removing the plaque instantly makes your teeth look whiter anyway and more importantly retains good oral health.

When I go for a deep clean I chose airflow as it's alot more comfortable and generally removes plaque better. I pay £75/$100 and my teeth look and feel fresh as fuk.

Heres a video of the procedure for deep clean, I get the one on the right usually done within 15 mins or so:

They actually play a part..

Escorts hate clients with rotten teeth/bad personal hygiene.

Rolling up with pearly whites, fresh minty breath, trimmed pubes, smelling good and you're far more likely to get good service. Literally had whores tongue my angus without me even asking srs.

Fuk man that's brutal, oh well could be alot worse atleast you still have teeth and know what to do to protect them.

I never really neglected brushing, well a couple of times I only brushed once a day but flossing never crossed my mind when I was younger tbh.

It's scary how many people don't floss regularly or are even aware that's it's just as important as brushing.

So my two upper front teeth look like they're chipped/grinded off and my dentists suggested that I get crowns on both of them. My understanding is that crowns can't get whitened so i'm trying to whiten my teeth so that I don't end up with yellowed crowns or having to replace them with whiter ones later on.

In my current routine i've been using a Philips Sonicare with W3 brush heads, colgate optic white renewal paste (3% hydrogen peroxide), optic white advanced mouth wash (2% hydrogen peroxide) and optic white pen (5% hydrogen peroxide) overnight. Been doing this since mid-February and my teeth do look significantly whiter but i'm not 100% satisfied yet with the results. My teeth in front do look mostly white but all the side teeth still are a little yellow. I just upgraded to the Pro series Optic white paste with 5% hydrogen peroxide and was considering using Crest 3D white-strips. My appointment is in April 20.

I also plan on getting Invisalign. I had braces in high school, eventually stopped using the retainer and my teeth have shifted a bit. I would only have to wear them for 6-months. I got quoted around $8k which I thought was ridiculous so I changed my insurance type that covers Orhto so now would pay around $2.5k

How long did it take you to get you teeth white?

Not that long in all honesty, about 2-3 weeks.

Also if you haven't visited a dental hygienist, I'd highly recommend it. Already posted a video above of what I get done, getting rid of unwanted plaque is a big game changer IMO.

For sure, I had a lot of plaque build up under the retainer attached to the back of my bottom teeth and never realized it. In Mid-February I went to a new dentist office for an overall consultation/exam, he said man you need cleaning and did it that same day. What a relief.

I paid $1800 for the Invisalign treatment (7 months) and $500 for retainers.

Prices of this stuff is going down. $8000?!

Also regarding not taking a step to fix it, I know people with jacked teeth who went to the dentist and told them explicitly what they need to get fixed etc.

They're over here saying the dentist is a "scam" while you have bleeding gums and yellow teeth. A lot of Americans think like this
This. Braces, Lasik surgery, pays for itself with the quickness, EASILY. still have my retainers also.

And dentists do be trying to tax you for some bullchit a lot but to just neglect teeth is a big wtf.

Dental Picks are needed as well, since the plaque can calcify and regular floss string aint gonna cut it.

Went for it finally. Well, not invisalign but braces because one my gayass canines won't grow because of crowding. Feel like it's the right move, but kinda terrified of the next two years.

Most are missing teeth like me. When I never wore my falsies girls would always comment on my missing teeth, like a bit of mystery.
