Teeth Whitening Question
Ok, so I drink my share of coffee and red wine.
Do I really have to give these up, and then get implants in order to have teeth as white as George Clooney's? Has anyone had any success with one of the many teeth whitening products currently on the market? White teeth seem to be an American thing, so I think I'm asking the right crowd.

Do a search and you'll see some interesting feedback on this topic. The concensus is that it's a ridiculous fad. How white do they need to be? Perhaps it would be better to shoot beyond white....say....clear. That would be good.
Seriously...not to belittle your question, but...does it really matter?

They do make a difference. Also, I've read that they have the same ingredient as ear wax removal drops, and some people just use that as a cheaper alternative.

I had mine done after I stopped smoking, I had them done once, and only once, once is enough.....
They were a little luminescent at first but a few esspressos sorted that out... Seems like there are people out there who get them bleached every 6 months during their routine dental exam..wth? Ymmv

That "Free Secret teeth whitening trick discovered by a local mom" maybe urine. More specifically, ammonia.
