I really wish my parents enforced dental hygiene on me and my brothers as kids. I had extremely crooked teeth and overcrowding up until high school when i got braces. but because I didn't already have the habit of brushing/flossing frequently, and mixed with my coffee habit, my teeth are super yellow, starting to have some teeth come out crooked again and just discovered a tiny crater in one of my teeth. Now im too afraid to go back to the dentist and too insecure to show my teeth to anyone. ENFORCE GOOD DENTAL HYGIENE AND HABITS ON YOUR KIDS.
EDIT: thank you everyone for the kind words!! I hope this is a wake up call for some of you and I hope that those of you who are dealing with the same thing or similar just know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE. ITS A LONG FIGHT BUT KEEP WORKING ON IT AND YOURSELF. There's absolutely no shame to be felt as long as your being proactive! I hope it brought you comfort from hearing my story. It does get better. You just need to take that leap. If you are still living at home and don't have access to that kind of help (i.e. a dentist or oral hygienist) just start small and rub your teeth every day with water. its not much but I promise it'll help get you on the right path. The most important thing: IS TAKE IT ONE STEP AT A TIME. Even if you think you can just jump straight into brushing frequently with all the steps, it will also be easier to start small such as just dry brushing after eating or even flossing! Never get discouraged and I promise you'll get results. You've got this. And in case no one else says it, I BELIEVE IN YOU. YOU ARE STRONG. YOU GOT THIS.

"9 out of 10 dentists recommend"
We have finally found the dentist that did not recommend the toothpaste.

My teeth are so yellow that even my pee is jealous of their color

The amount of useful information for less than 2 minutes is insane, felt like I watched a 10 minutes video at least

Actually it's healthy to have yellow teeth, it's just been normalized to be more appealing if you have white teeth

Y'all know what's funny? She says that "unless it's healthy, the color doesn't matter" with such whitened teeth that she has...

As someone who hasn’t had a single cavity in over a decade, I feel like I have relatively healthy teeth, but that little yellow discoloration always bothered me. I guess it’s time to tell my dentist to whiten it for me then.

I love informative videos like this! Short, straight to the point, easy to listen to and most importantly, FOCUSED! There are loads of videos that just beat around the bush for ages without giving out the necessary information for the audience, what a waste of time. This, on the other hand, is genius!

Having a family friend who is a dentist, I pretty much learned early on that yellow teeth DOES NOT mean bad dental hygiene. There are many indicators but yellow teeth is not one of them. But learning how store-bought toothpaste doesn't whiten the teeth is interesting. Does it apply to all toothpaste or can I expect whitening from specific brands e.g. Sensodyne?

When I visit my family or got to fancy places, I literally use whitening strips. They work really good, just don’t use them too often, they can damage your teeth, so I just use them in a few occasions.

I’ve been using whitening toothpaste for years without it changing my teeth colour at all. I quickly learnt that it only removes stains and doesn’t help teeth that are naturally yellow. It doesn’t say that on the packaging though, it just says it will make your teeth 3 shades whiter. I still use it because this is the toothpaste I am comfortable with now and also this means I won’t develop any staining.

That is how you make a video. Short, to the point and with good advice.
If your teeth are healthy, whitening don't matter
