Teeth Whitening.....

Tried the soda and hydrogen peroxide, didnt work for me. I think my problem is that I have thin enamel and the yellow dentin shows. Any suggestions for thin enamel? Drinking milk? Trays?
Don't debate me.

How many of you are coffee drinkers? About a year ago I started a new habit of drinking a glass of water after I finished my coffee, making sure to really swish the water around. The difference has been subtle and taken a while to notice, but my dentist and ortho commented that my teeth were really white and whitening would be unnecessary.

^Thanks for the tip. I drink tea but will try it out.
If one has thin enamel, will drinking milk make teeth whiter, by building the enamel?
Don't debate me.

Was going to get my teeth whitened but reading all this stuff about it hurting isn't promising. It can't be good for the enamel if thats the case. Do the dentists address this?

Laser teeth whitening like 'Zoom' does not erode enamel. You can Google it and research it yourself. But using shit like baking soda or those use-at-home strips will erode enamel.
The pain is just temporary and it shouldn't hurt for more than a day or two (if that). Some are just more sensitive than others.

What about drinking tons of milk for rebuilding enamel?

What about the home whitening gels that you use with retainers?
E.g. Opalscene 35%?

Swish every other night with "food grade" hydrogen peroxide before bed. Most health stores and whole foods carry them.
I usually dilute with a little water. It seems to work good.
