Whiten Your Teeth on a Budget

Rating: DIRT CHEAP

Okay girls, I know one of the most beautiful accessories out on the streets today is a pearly white and bright grin. This is probably one of the fastest ways to look younger and more healthy. However, for us girls on a budget it can be a little difficult to get the super white smile that most it girls are sporting today. Don't fret! I've come up with the best whitening products on drugstore shelves everywhere that will help you attain the ultimate paper white grin that you're looking for without your checking account noticing.

1. Listerine Vibrant White Pre-Brush Rinse - This is the greatest whitening product I have ever spent $7 on. Use this right before you brush your teeth. Swish around in your mouth for about 30 seconds and your teeth will noticeably, and I mean NOTICEABLY, get whiter within two weeks. I started using thing last semester and one day I looked in the mirror and said "DAMN! My teeth look nice!" Trust me if you don't want to spendmore than $10 on whitening then this is the product of choice.

2. Crest Vivid Night Toothpaste - This one is another steal. At less then $5 a bottle, this toothpaste whitens your teeth over night while you are sleeping, causing stains to loosen up and easily get brushed away when you brush again in the morning. I used this along side the Listerine Pre-brush rinse and noticed great results in less than 2 weeks.

3. Listerine Quick Dissolving Whitening Strips - These things are another great whitening product that gets you white teeth fast. I used these once over the summer and after just 3 sample strips my teeth were noticeably a little whiter. Now... for those who have seriously yellow teeth it might take a little longer to achieve the results you want. Another thing to point out with this product is that they can be a little tricky to put on at first because they tear easily but once you get the hang of it your golden.


Stick to a routine
Now remember, if you really want to improve your smile dramatically without spending a dime follow a strict routine of brushing your teeth three times a day, flossing and rinsing. You would not believe how many people go without brushing their teeth sometimes. I've seen it before too, college is the worst example. If you don't take care of your teeth properly then you will never see results and will have to spend even more money in the future.

Floss only costs $2 and only takes up 3 minutes of your time!
Flossing is one of those extremely important steps in dental hygiene that many people forget about. I too, sometimes forget to floss and after a couple days I can noticeably see changes in my teeth. So remember to floss along with using your whitening products! It will only help you get those pearly whites you only dream of.
