How do I get rid of discoloration on the crowns of my teeth?

I use crest white strips so the front of my teeth are nice and white,but the tops/crowns and indents of my teeth are discolored. How do I remedy that?

Try using dipping you tooth brush (with toothpaste on tooth brush) in your baking soda before you brush. This may not work right away, so give it some time before you notice a difference. Also if you smoke or drink coffee, either cut down or consider quitting.
Reply:I know wine and coffee doesn't help - I say this from experience. I've used the white strips also. Not sure they've really helped. Sometimes I mix hydrogene peroxide and water and rinse/keep in mouth for a few minutes. Flossing is essential, and so is professional cleaning every six months.
Reply:The gel in trays is usually more effective in reaching the entire tooth surface. You can compare these methods here: http://the-dental-makeover.com/whiten-te...
Reply:there is an affordable good working toothpaste called ''Blanx''


it is sold in all supermarkets,





get the blanx stain removal type





that one is a bronze tube
Reply:get professional whitening from the dentist if you can afford it
Reply:that's because crest white strips don't effectively whiten all of your teeth. i'd take a bit of a break from whitening (don't want to cause sensitivity) and then pick up a gel based product like simply white (which is super cheap - about $7-10). this will be able to get into the grooves and crevices much better than a flat strip. plus, it's good for maintaining whiter teeth.
