I’m on my third tube of whitening toothpastes. I expected my teeth to be much whiter by now. How many tubes do you think it will take?

Marcus,
You’ll need to have more reasonable expectations when it comes to whitening toothpastes. They’re designed to remove surface stains. They will not be able to penetrate deep into your teeth to thoroughly whiten them. For that you’ll need professional teeth whitening.
You’ll find whitening prices very reasonable, especially if you do at home whitening. That will whiten your teeth gradually, at your pace. You could spend an equal amount of money on whitening toothpastes and still not get your teeth close to as white as the professional gel can. It is much stronger.
If you’re in a hurry and willing to pay more money, you can get in-office whitening. That will whiten your teeth faster.
