SMILE!

Do you ever look at pictures or in the mirror and think, "Oh wow! My teeth are yellow,"? The day I got my braces off (Oh happy day!), I kept looking at my teeth and I thought the same thing, so I spent half of the day brushing them. It had very little affect.

Do you want to whiten your teeth without have to be constantly brushing them? Let me introduce you to some of my favorite beauty items!


Crest 3D White Toothpaste is an amazing toothpaste! It leaves my teeth feeling squeacky clean, literally, and they still feel clean hours after brushing them!

The Crest 3D Whitestrips do amazing work! Just apply the upper and lower strips, wait 45 minutes, and remove! You see results in 5 days! The box tells you to wear them twice a day, I don't. The whitestrips are kind of pricey, so I only wear them once a day, 5 days a week.

The Crest 3D Mouthwash brings freshness to your mouth. Swish it around in your mouth after brushing for a fresh and clean feeling! It really does help whiten your teeth, but it takes much more time than the whitestrips. I suggest buying this if you cannot get the whitestrips.

Of course, a good toothbrush is key in teeth whitening! I use whatever toothbrush is on sale. (I buy my Crest 3D using coupons found on their website.) A good toothbrush is a firm brissled one. If you have sensitive teeth, then use a softer brissled one.




Here are some quick tips on how you can whiten your smile...

* Brush your teeth after you drink hot tea or coffee. They can both stain your teeth pretty badly. This was actually the biggest problem with my teeth, coffee stains.

* Brush your teeth 3 times a day. Once in the morning, once in the evening and before you go to bed. Also, if you have to wear a retainer, make sure it is freshly clean too. Stuff from your retainer can get on your clean teeth and affect it.

* Brush once a week with baking soda. Put some of it one your toothbrush and brush your teeth. If you have sinsitive gums them I do not suggest doing this. Also, do not brush your teeth the entire day with baking soda. Trust me, your gums will be hurting and most likely bleeding. I learned this one the hard way. just brush them once really well and then rinse.



Since I've been using Crest 3D White Set, my smile has improved so much! I am always, and I mean always, smiling, so a yellow smile does not cut it with me! People have noticed that my teeth are whiter and that their proves to me that this stuff really works!

  2. Sweet! There are a lot of teeth whitening products out there, and we really gotta be careful and choose the things that really work for us. We usually learn about these products after trying them. Whitening products like these can complement the whitening done by the dentist. Really effective!
