i drink a lot of coffee and i was wondering if anyone has used whitening products to get rid of yellow tint coffee drinking makes your teeth?

i think Crest whitening trays would really help us coffee drinkers out! i work with the people at Crest and the whitening trays whiten your teeth quickly and it''s only about 30 minutes a day.

you can still drink coffee after and before whenever you and still get whiter teeth, anyone think about whitening your teeth or using Crest?

I have never found any of the over the counter "bleaching" products to be particularly effective. Some of the whitening toothpastes are simply more coarse than the usual toothpastes and remove external staining (eg coffee, tea and red wine staining), but most people seem to be after an actual change in their tooth colour.

This can only really be achieved using strong bleaching agents, and should be done under the supervision of a trained professional.
