Well, I feel like an idiot. I’ve been whitening teeth a million different ways, and never thought to do it like that. Thanks!

Nice. I usually use a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. I’ll try this next time!

You could also just use the spongetool and brush away the yellow color. Just as simple.

I find the sponge tool tends to leave a more patchy appearance, whereas using selective color or hue/sat slider provides a way more uniform correction.

Nice tip. But could this guy be more boring? Live a little.

I like boring people. Thanks for the tutorial. I’ve also copied the layer with the teeth selected, set the blend mode to screen, and toned it down (way down) until the teeth look bright enough

Thank you

I was wondering what products are the best for teeth whitening?
