Hi, I want to whiten my teeth. I feel a smile is a big part of improving my image and overall making me feel better. I dont have horrible yellow teeth btw. I would say average compared to other guys. Never have the color my teeth held me down in doing what I wanted. What are some methods that will brighten my teeth to almost perfect white? I do brush with "whitening" toothpaste but from what Ive read it doesnt do much. I know about crest whitestripes and dentist whitening. How effective are these options and the costs for both? Any other methods?
