Also, put a litttle bit of Baking Soda on your toothbrush (with your toothpaste on too) and brush away! It tastes horrible, but works well! Your teeth should be sparkling for school next week!
iSLAND_iNTHE_SUNx0 answered Monday August 22 2005, 4:13 pm: I've used Crest Whitening strips and they work good. Get the premium ones. It only takes a week whereas the regular ones take 2 weeks. And you just put the strips on twice a day, for 7 days. Good luck!

spoiledx3shortii answered Monday August 22 2005, 2:55 pm: i would say dont waste your money on like crest whitestips or anythng of that sort.. because i have them.. and they take MUCH longer then 5 days to work & show results.. well you CAN buy them & use them daily or whatever.. but results will take longer than 5 days.. i wuold say just brush your teeth after every single meal & after everytime you eat anything.. *courtney* [ spoiledx3shortii's advice column | Ask spoiledx3shortii A Question ]
SeCkzii069 answered Monday August 22 2005, 2:49 pm: i would suggest buying a kit that whitens your teeth in 7 days. Crest has a kit out but i forget what its called. Or if you cant afford that or dont want to try it but a good brand of toothpaste that is shown to whiten your teeth and brush 3 times a day or after everything you eat. Hope i helped <3 Amanda [ SeCkzii069's advice column | Ask SeCkzii069 A Question ]
TheOldOne answered Monday August 22 2005, 2:48 pm: Home kits aren't very effective, and take a while to give any result; five days won't be enough to make much of a difference.
If you (or you parents) have the money, go to your dentist for professional whitening. That's by far the most effective and quick method. It's not terribly cheap, though.
If you can't do that, you can try the home kits...but don't be disappointed if they don't do much. In any case, brush thoroughly after every meal, using a flouride toothpaste (one with baking soda would be particularly good), and floss at least once a day. Try to avoid caffinated drinks like Coke, Pepsi, and coffee; they can stain your teeth a little.
Good luck! And try not to worry. People don't really pay a lot of attention to other people's teeth, unless they're missing or broken.
