And the yellow tint to my teeth will not for the life of me go away. I've been brushing all over the place, front, back, everywhere in my mouth. I still have a slight yellow tint when I examine after each attempt. The middle looks slightly better but the sides definitely have a more yellow tint to them.
Is this normal? I'm trying to take better care of myself and I have no intention of visiting the damn dentist. Should I just keep brushing until it gets better?
EDIT: UPDATE: I wont ever brush for half an hour again like you guys said. I'll only brush twice a day for five minutes every day. And I'll have a small glass of water after having acidic food/drinks.

Several issues here: 1. You're not supposed to brush more than 5 minutes at a time 2-3 times a day I wouldn't be surprised if you're tearing the shit out of your gums right now 2. It takes time to whiten You're not going to whiten your teeth in one day's brushing, I would think you're smart enough to figure that out. 3. There's bleaching and several other things you could do to speed that along Though I myself would just stick to brushing and mouthwashing, flossing is a waste of time in my opinion
