Not recommended: You can use over the counter tooth paste or crest 3D whitening strips or pens. However, they are not so effective and/or stable. OTC bleach and whitening tooth paste could be used as a supplement only. A professional teeth whitening, followed by home whitening system with custom trays for the long term effect. You will be very happy with the results.

Not Really: Baking soda and salt do not have whitening properties. There are products specifically formulated to whiten teeth; the best is available through your dentist.
