Tom Cruise made that whole invisalign thing popular.So if Tom Cruise needs his teeth fixed, how bad are yours? I remember seeing Chris Rock on Oprah one time and he was griping about the fact that Oprah had not told him to get his teeth fixed.
He needed some cosmetic dentistry and a bit of teeth whitening. But Oprah had failed to tell to go get a brite smile and all will be well with the world. Of course, that might be a fun show, Oprah Teeth Whitening Special. In England it would be a regular series.
Bright smile teeth whitening is all the rage these days. There are teeth whitening gums. Teeth whitening tooth pastes. Teeth whitening gels and strips and mouth guards. My teeth are not all that white. But my life does not seem an empty void. Would I be happier with a bit of smile whitening? Would I look more like Tom Cruise? Really, I don’t want to look like Tom, but maybe if I had his money I’d get my teeth whitened too.
The last bright teeth whitening product I saw was at a dollar store, so maybe it’s not as out of reach as it once was. I’m just not sure I want to put a teeth whitening product from a dollar store on my teeth. I’m not in that big a hurry to get dentures.
We all know the secrets to a bright smile, brush after every meal, floss, and see your dentist regularly. Here are so tips for keeping your whitened teeth white.
- Avoid the consumption of or exposure to products that stain your teeth. It does little good to get a dentist to whiten your teeth if you are just going to go out and stain them again. If you do choose to consume beverages that stain, consider using a straw so that the liquid bypasses your front teeth.
- Brush or rinse immediately after consuming stain-causing beverages or foods. Keep that brightsmile bright..
- Follow good oral hygiene practices. Brush your teeth at least twice daily and floss at least once daily to remove plaque. Use a whitening toothpaste (once or twice a week only) to remove surface stains and prevent yellowing. Use a regular toothpaste the rest of the time.
- Consider touch-up treatments. Depending on the whitening method used, you may need a touch-up every 6 months or after a year or two. If you smoke or drink lots of stain-causing beverages, you may need a touch up more often.
- Keeping a bright white smile is not that hard. There are all kinds of products now that allow you to brush your teeth without actually brushing your teeth. Teeth Whitening sugar free chewing gum is a good item to use after a meal or soda.
- Visit you Dentist at least twice a year. The dentist knows all about teeth whitening and may even have a teeth whitening special when you visit.
