Caring Dentist

I don't just mean one or two, a whole set that you have to take out at night.
I'm torn between dental implants (long and complicated process that means putting my current, very happy life, of travelling and working around the world on hold) or dentures (cheaper, less complicated but…it means false teeth at 25!)
I'm not in this problem because I negleted my teeth (I've always taken good care of them). I have a genetic problem that means my teeth did not develop properly.

You can travel anytime at your young age. Go for the implants, I know they will be expensive but they will look so much nicer than dentures. Take the advice from an experienced one, I had 6 on a plate at the age of 23. After a while they don't fit properly, and you can't smile properly because of the fear of them dropping, which they did. And there is nothing so embarrassing than dentures.I am 52 now and I am due at the dentist tomorrow, and I am enquiring on implants.

I want to get the teeth whitening trays from the store. Do they work? How long do they take to work?

Teeth whitening is commonly accomplished by applying a bleaching agent to the teeth. The longer the bleaching agent is applied the better it works. Or at least this is how every teeth whitening system is marketed.

The problem is that you really need to use a system that mimics what you would get at a Dentists office but in a more affordable at home do it yourself kit.

You see whitening toothpastes only contain minimal whitening agents and so for the few minutes alone in brushing your teeth it would take an extremely long time to produce any noticeable change.

Whitening “strips” while more effective then toothpaste again only contain mild oxidization activators within the “strip” so here again the results tend to take longer and not as long lasting.

You really need to find a system that is similar to the ones that dentists use, but in a more affordable solution. These tend to work much more effectively and doesn’t cost you hundreds of dollars like a trip to the dentist would.

While there are many great brands out there that follow this “dentists system” but the home teeth whitening system I like is

I've never used any teeth whitening products and I'd like to remove some stains from my teeth. So which one/ones works the best? A d does the white eventually fade back to the same color your tooth was before to where you'd have to whiten them again? If so, how long does the white usually last before it starts to fade?

A super easy quick way to see a difference in your teeth color is using this cheap home recipe with items you have at home.
- Brush your teeth well before you do this.
- Get a Dixie cup and dump in a teaspoon of baking soda
- Next take a cap full (lid) of hydrogen peroxide.
-Mix them together with a normal tooth brush.
- Dab teeth with the mixture or areas you want brighten.
- After you do that for all your teeth, spit out and rinse with water.
- I take a wet wash cloth and clean my teeth.
- THen brush your teeth to get the taste out, drink plenty of water.

This a very quick simple way to brighten your smile. Never do this treatment more than like once a week or a couple times a month bc it can hurt your enamels and gums. If you see that your gums turn white after you finish, its normal just clean with a wash cloth also it just means the peroxide is killing germs.

I don't smoke, but I add blueberies to my corn flakes every morning. And I drink strong cocoa every night.
I brush & scub my false teeth intensely, and the gumshield and roof.
I soak them in organic liquid soap everynight
But nothing works!

try poladent, its for dentures but it works!

I brush and floss daily, but my teeth are still yellowish. I can't afford to get my teeth whitened by a dentist and I don't want to use whitening strips because they haven't helped before. I need suggestions on what I can possibly use instead and how do use it. Thank you!
I'm only 14 years old and I don't drink coffee or smoke.

Try using baking soda mixed with toothpaste. It worked for me. Also, if you smoke and drink dark colored beverages stop because it doesn't help.

Like i mean the top row of teeth? how can they just 'clip' in up there without falling off or down? how do the fake gums to sit nicely & supportive? i tried to somehow picture how but i cant? please explain.. cause i know you can remove false teeth whenever you want! & can someone please tell me what are false teeth dentures made out of?! also how much are they for top & bottem set?

Upper dentures are usually held in place with natural suction between the denture and the roof of your mouth. When they are new it is sometimes necessary to use a commercial denture adhesive to aid in the transition. Most people adapt fairly well to upper dentures.

Lower dentures are a bit more tricky to learn to wear, they take considerably more patience to get used to. Some can wear them without adhesive but it seems more use adhesive to keep the lower stable.

Most dentures are made out of acrylic. Modern dentures are can be made to look extremely life like. The cost for the entire procedure varies by where you live, the quality of the dentures you receive and the skill level of your dentist, It is very important that if you are facing dentures that you do some research before committing to anything. Find out who does the best denture work in your area- ask friends and family. Visit the dentist and get his or her take on what is needed for you and most of all- get everything in writing and have it explained to you. If you have questions- ask them! Ask the dentist or ask here, ask someone who wears dentures.

I'm 15 years old and my teeth aren't exactly white, i'm thinking of buying some whitening strips product ( not the floss, or any of those other stuff) so which ones would you recommend? Also it has to be available in like a common store like walgreens, or something cuz i can't shop online. oh ya i forgot to ask is the crest whitening strips that makes your teeth very sensitive a big problem? and does it have a long term effect?

The crest whitening strips make my teeth sensitive. If you are looking for something from your local store, I don't know what to tell you b/c most of that stuff is poor quality. I would recommend finding someone who can order professional whitening products online. Here's a good site with teeth whitening product reviews.

Best of luck to you

I got false teeth full uppers and a partial on the bottom and I'm not happy with them. Can anybody tell what is reasonable to expect after I get them.

Depending on how long ago that you got them. For the first week, you still may have some swelling from any final extractions – ouch!
Then you will have a tendency to slobber a lot because your mouth thinks you have food in it. It is easy to get things stuck in the partial as you are eating – But please, do not pull out your plate at the table without covering your mouth. Cause nobody wants to see that.

Overall, you should expect more compliments on your smile, greater confidence cause you know you look good, easier chewing, biting, some protection from hot food.

If they do not want to stay in – try the powder – most prefered adhesive.

Any real discomforts should be taken back to the dentist to see if a light trim of edges is needed.

I have really bad teeth and I'm only 20. Because of a poor childhood I never had braces, so even though I've been taking care of my teeth their crookedness has caused a lot of problems. I have many cavities and my teeth are so weak they crumble away. I'm scared that I'll be missing a lot of teeth by the time I'm 25 How much would it be to have false ones put in? And would it be worth it?

It depends on the dentist you go to. I am in the same predicament as you. I have very weak teeth, have had all my life. No amount of dental care could help that. I am 34 and am fixing to have partials put in. It is costing me 1800.00 to have ALL of my molars pulled and my partials made. I am keeping my front teeth so I do not need full plates…..yet. I am guessing about 3000.00 for full plates.
Personally, being in the same boast as you, I believe that it would be worth it to not have pain when you eat.

I was wondering what products are the best for teeth whitening?

First, what is a good whitening toothpaste?

Second, what is a good product to use for teeth whitening that doesn’t leave my teeth extremely sensitive? I have heard from multiple people that a lot of the whitening strips leave your teeth very sensitive. Anyone have any experience with a whitening product that does not leave you with extremely sensitive teeth after?

just clean your teeth lol
