Hello. Thank you for advice. I love my coffee (and I won’t quit it lol ) and I love to smile but are very aware of my yellow teeth. Thank you for the advice of starting the sensitive toothpaste 2 weeks before starting the whitening treatment, I hope it works. And by the way, YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL!
When using sensitivity toothpaste as you suggested, can you incorporate a whitening mouthwash as well? I'm not sure if using a mouth wash together with a sensitive teeth toothpaste (pre, during, post) would interfere with other active ingredients in the toothpaste making it less effective.
Thank you so much for this video! I learned a lot and now understand how and why these different products work. I’m going to show my daughter your video so she can see the example of a beautiful and intelligent woman 💖
Thankyou so much you just saved me £500 I was going to get my teeth whiten at the dentis till I came across you I definitely buy the teeth whitening strips 😊
recent study says whitening can damage proteins and disintegrate teeth. they don't know how it affects living teeth and no one had had problems years later.
They still should work albeit not to their full extent. Although if you’re having sensitivity issues, try using products with a lower peroxide percentage. They may take a couple more days to achieve a desired look but they should be much less irritating
@@jtchal320 I was worried that my teeth would become sensitive from the 30-minute procedure. But here's what I did: I cut each strip in half and used them without folding the inside of the teeth and stood as instructed for 30 minutes. The result was more than great and I could do even twice as many procedures.
@@SP-wf3vq so you did all that without the strips touching your gums correct? I just bought some crest whitening strips and I'm nervous to use them because of the whole gum sensitivity thing.
So crest 3d white strips are actually okay to use as long as I use a toothpaste for sensitivity before, during, and after treatment? I REALLY want to whiten my teeth but I also REALLY don't want to damage them or cause too much sensitivity or enamel loss. I've heard good things about the strips and bad things and I can't decide whether I should try them or not.
@@fakefakefake7952 omg I have no idea, sorry. I've never tried them, I was trying to ask her a question but I'm sure you can find a yt video on how to apply them! Sorry, I can't help! But good luck! She was just talking about if you use those strips, u need to use a toothpaste for sensitivity daily, like sensodine, so it can help prevent increased sensitivity in ur teeth. Does the box have directions? Let me know how it goes and whether u like it please!
I just started using the whitening strips. I've seen a bit of change and im on day 2 now. But basically they are designed to be safe for your teeth if you use them correctly. They do not harm your enamel if you use them as the instructions tell you to. And also to add to it when you start doing whitening strips, its often recommended avoiding foods and drinks like coffee, chocolate sodas etc because they could cause staining or some harm, because the way the whitening strips work is that they basically penetrate a layer of your tooth into the enamel and then they chemically whiten the enamel of your tooth. So basically for a little time after using the strips, foods like soda and coffee can get into your teeth more easily and could potentially cause staining and erosion, so it is recommened that you stay away from those. You can find a list of all the types of foods you should avoid and what not to do after using them. But other than that, as long as you use them as instructed your teeth will be just fine. They might not work as well for everyone but for me they seem to be working great!
With the whiting strips the reason you might be having sensitive teeth is because you use it right after you brush you want to wait at least 35 to 45 before you use the stripes
Thank you for the explanation. Was going to buy the strips. I didn't know whether it's safe or not. And also thought those light whitening was a gimmick 😅
The Light systems don't do much beyond the first day. They give the appearance of whiter teeth for 24 hours because they dry the tooth (and thus customers will intially be happier). After that first day the diff between normal whitening and the light whitening is nil.
Very helpful. Do the 3D crest whitening strips are they damaging to the enamel or is the only downside sensitivity? Does it cause permanent damage? I just wanted to know a little bit more about the side effects
Arianna Mendoza hello! I’m so glad you found the video helpful. Crest White strips are not damaging to enamel. They work by breaking apart the stains and returning the teeth to their brighter potential. Temporary sensitivity is a common side effect and can be minimized by using a sensitivity toothpaste.
@@drbrigittewhite Hello! I have a question. My enamel is already heavily damaged - ten of my teeth at the front have noticeable transparent areas. Would you still give the okay on wrest whitening strips or do you think it'd be better if I went to a dentist to get my teeth professionally whitened?
@@drbrigittewhite would the 10% found in the Whitestrips be safe for enamel as well then I suppose? Also, the sensitivity caused because of this is only temporary sensitivity and not permanent, correct? Thank you and great video breaking down the differing treatments,
Hey thank you for posting this video. I'm about to so my first ever teeth whitening at my dentist office in a few weeks and I'm super nervous. I have pretty strong teeth currently and I'm afraid of the sensitivity that could happen after the process. I do chew on Ice from Low Iron, but that's about it..Gums are clean and no cavities !! Should I be worried or am I bugging for no reason ? 🤔 Plz, all advice is helpful🙏🏾 Thank You 😊
Hello! How exciting to brighten your smile. I would suggest to start using a sensitivity toothpaste before your whitening appointment and continue for a couple weeks afterwards.
Hi! It is very helpful. I was wondering how long after using peroxide on teeth it is allowed to consume staining products, like coffee. Would you mind answering it, please? :)
Aurigandrea after teeth whitening, the enamel is very sensitive to staining. I advise waiting 24 hours before consuming colored foods and beverages. Using a whitening toothpaste helps retain brightness.
Hello Dr. I really love your video. My PCP recommended me Crest for teeth whitening. I've a question. I've a tooth with white spot since my childhood. In one of your replies you said it could be early cavity, but my dentist never mentioned anything about the spot and I don't have any issues either. Can I use the Crest whitening strips without harming my teeth?
Hello Zarrin! Thank you for following! White spots can occur for various reasons. They may present as areas of hypermineralization that occurred during tooth development. There are dental procedures that use materials to help reduce the appearance of these spots. Perhaps your dentist can advise.
And Dr. sorry to disturb but can I ask one more question please. I couldn't get the Crest whitening strips that I wanted. So bought hydrogen peroxide which I got as 6% conc. If I use it as mouthwash, will it work for teeth whitening? How long should I use it then?
Great video so basically If I were to use 2 tablespoon baking soda, 2 tablespoons of hydroxide peroxide and brush with say about 2 weeks I should see some difference white teeth? Thank You That is cheaper than the whiter strips
Would it be fine to use whitening strips on a chipped tooth. Im wanting to whiten my teeth a bit before i go in to get it fixed. Thanks for your help! Very informative video.
hi! this is very helpful. how long does the strip's effect stays on the teeth? after using it, is there any habbit that i have to avoid? i'm a first year dental student and i'm embarrassed with my yellow teeth. would you mind answering this, please😁
White strips can brighten teeth significantly and results typically last a few months. Every patient is different. If your teeth are very yellow from coffee, tobacco or other products, I would recommend in office whitening for better results.
to prevent teeth sensitivity while using the whitening strip ,try using SENSODYNE toothpaste, it prevents it. it worked perfectly for my friends and I.
Thanks for ur tips I will try the Hydro peroxide with the baking soda that sounds interesting and it sounds like it will work so yeah I will keep you updated on that thanks
Awesome video Dr. White! I used Crest Professional White Strips after my braces removal about 12 years ago. I plan to use them soon and will try to tag you. Thank you for the information.
unfortunately in the UK, hydrogen peroxide concentrations of over 0.1% is illegal 😢 are there any other agents that offer similar results as hydrogen peroxide?
Hi miss Dr. Brigitte :) I watching you from turkey and I have questions. I really really want to use this Whitting strips but I afraid too :( is it painful so much? I need to use something for make my teeth Whittier... But I really afraid so much. What should I do? I hope you will answer me. Have a nice day 🌻
I have a question , why did my local dentist try to charge me $600 for a dental package? He asked me if I used mouthwash or floss but for some reason I felt like I was being ridiculed and degraded for some reason when he gave me a general exam.
I do apologize to my local rite aid for swiping a box of these whitening strips without paying. But I am at a loss of words to explain my living situation, its kinda like a mix of child neglect and imprisonment restrictions.
I have brown spots on my teeth and i tried baking soda and all but they are not going so can whitenning strips help me if not can you suggest me any other solution??
Is it bad to use the Optic White and the Hydrogen peroxide / water mix? I have stopped drinking coffee 2 weeks ago I'm hoping to see positive results!! 🙏
Thank you Dr. Can you please do a video on the potential side effects of using whitening toothpaste. I get a lingering sour aftertaste every time I use a whitening toothpaste and wonder if I should discontinue using the toothpaste. I use pepsodent's whitening toothpaste.
Hi Matthew, try using Sensodyne Extra fresh toothpaste, it helps with teeth sensitivity and whitens the teeth also. But if you want to achieve a pearly white teeth over a short period, use the CREST 3D whitening strip(20 days treatment). Brush with sensodyne toothpaste 30mins before applying the strips, it helps prevent sensitivity and in less than 2weeks, you would start seeing visible difference. i hope you find this helpful.
I just burned my gums using her recipe of two teaspoons of Hydrogen Peroxide and one teaspoon of baking soda. My gums are burning right now, but I recommend using one-half teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide instead to whiten your teeth and not burn your gums.
Anything acidic will take minerals out of your enamel, thus weakening it. However, the hydrogen peroxide you use at 3% is heavily diluted, that means its not as strong of an acid. The ph of a 3% Hydrogen Peroxide solution is going to be around 4-5, so pretty acidic. However, compare this to lemon juice, or even coke with a ph of 2-3, you can see that hydrogen peroxide really isn't that bad. Using hydrogen peroxide on your teeth is a lot safer for your teeth than drinking a can coke, since it is less acidic and it has oxidizing properties that weaken stains.
You should just call yourself Dr. B.White. as a dentist that sounds so awesome!
Effnine66 great idea!

When using sensitivity toothpaste as you suggested, can you incorporate a whitening mouthwash as well? I'm not sure if using a mouth wash together with a sensitive teeth toothpaste (pre, during, post) would interfere with other active ingredients in the toothpaste making it less effective.

recent study says whitening can damage proteins and disintegrate teeth. they don't know how it affects living teeth and no one had had problems years later.
Other doctors say baking soda is damaging your teeth. This is confucing.
I believe she's talking about using it for whitening rather than using it in place of your regular toothpaste. I hope this helps.
Would whitening strips work if I leave them just for 15 minutes, because of the sensitivity?
They still should work albeit not to their full extent. Although if you’re having sensitivity issues, try using products with a lower peroxide percentage. They may take a couple more days to achieve a desired look but they should be much less irritating

Hey, can I still proceed with the 3D whitening treatment if I need a white filling inside one of my tooth?
Typically, restoring teeth is recommended prior to teeth whitening.
Doesn't it eat ones enamel? Thus weakened teeth? Peroxide that is.
Anything acidic will take minerals out of your enamel, thus weakening it. However, the hydrogen peroxide you use at 3% is heavily diluted, that means its not as strong of an acid. The ph of a 3% Hydrogen Peroxide solution is going to be around 4-5, so pretty acidic.
