Hi... I drink coffee (don't smoke) and my teeth are not as white as they once were. I want to 'whiten' them but I have a little gum recession so white strips are irritating to my gums. I know why I have recession and have discussed it with my dentist (so I am on top of prevention). Can anyone recommend anything I can use to safely whiten my teeth? Thanks! :-)
Teeth whitening (for sensitive teeth/gums)...?
You can have an office bleaching done, it takes about one hour and dentist can cover the recession areas. You can get a custom tray made by your dentist and use at home bleach and alternate between the bleaching gel and Fluoride to desesitize theteeth. You can also try putting a small amount of vaseline on the recession areas and then try the strips and see if it works.
Good luck.

Reply:Anytime you have recession, you are more open to sensitivity, However, with tray whitening systems obtained from a dentist office, there are ways to help the sensitivity while bleaching. (Flouride treatment before bleaching) Flouride rinse, toothpaste all remineralize and help to close the "pores" in the teeth which reduce sensitivity. Ask your dentist what he recommends and good luck with the bleaching!
Reply: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.
