is this safe?

Question:

i did a search on the internet. i typed in "teeth whitening - home remedies" and i got this "took a swig of hydrogen peroxide, and swirled it around my mouth, (just like mouthwash) and left it in for a minute. I saw a difference in just 2 days!" they're were votes on it, many people tried this method and said that it worked. is it safe?

Answers:
Its fine as long as you don't swallow it and be sure to rinse your mouth out I've done it but damn the peroxide taste bad.
Also another way of doing it is Baking soda. Wet your toothbrush and dip it in the soda and brush away.

Other Answers:
I don't know if it is, I know it isn't safe if you drink it (which I assume you already know, thanks for the points).

yes it is perfectly safe, my boyfriend uses peroxide every day to clean his teeth.it tastes awful, but it works Just make sure "not to swallow any of it " I would make appointment with DENTIST ,,he may have other SUGESTIONS.

I am not sure of it works or not but you don't want to use it daily because it can cause tissue abnormalities. Be sure to dilute it 50/50 if you do. I don't recommend it as a whitening product to my patients because of the potential side effects. It is okay if it is an ingredient in the toothpaste but using it alone worries me a bit.
If it is surface staining you wan to remove you can use a whitening toothpaste, if it is the color of your teeth then you will need to get a product like the Crest white strips or see your dentist for whitening options he or she offers.
