Whitening Teeth – without Bleaching?

Are there any known ways in this universe that can truly whiten teeth that doesn’t involve a form of bleeching. Bleaching (as done by e.g. Crest white strips) seems very mideval in that it literally strips a layer of your enamel, thus weakening your teeth and makng them prone to tooth decay. I have seen such toothpaste whitening products but find them more as marketing gimmics for cosumers gullable to a quick fix.

Can someone tell me if there is an alterate way to re-whiten ones teeth that doesn’t involve stripping precious teeth? I read that eating certain types of fruits can help, but i doubt it would make significant difference.

I find it surprising that there is no special product out there that simply "colors" the teeth a whitening shade overtop the yellowing for a short period (e.g. 3-7 days) — a cloak over the problem. I would figure that product would be much more valuable to the consumer (healthier teeth) and the manufacturer (repeat biz)

a mixture of baking soda and peroxide(a few drops) and brush teeth with it (do not swallow any of mixture it tastes like Sh–) use this method no more then 1 or twice a week , remember to rinse throughly

    ok, isn’t peroxide considered bleach?

    I use the whitening pre-brush mouthwash…it bubbles, but it works. :)
