Sometimes you may not have time to use whitening strips or a bleaching tray to get your teeth white before a picture. So how can you make yellow teeth bright white?

Here is a very simple video tutorial on how use the hue/saturation adjustments in Photoshop Elements 6 (Mac) to fix yellow teeth.

Open your images in Photoshop Elements.
Make a copy of the original file and paste it into a new layer-
Select around the teeth to whiten using the magnetic lasso tool.

Enhance > Adjust Color > Adjust Hue/Saturation
On Edit drop down the box and select Yellow-
Decrease saturation to between -20 to -40
Increase lightness to around 20 to 30

Don’t hit OK

Again on the Edit drop down select Master
Increase the lightness to 5 to 10

Flatten the image and save as a new jpeg.

Print and scrapbook.

  5. Many thanks for any very clear and helpful posting. I am unquestionably a violator of a lot of these procedures. I frequently come across myself conflicted when writing a weblog post because I see by myself producing greater than folks desire to go through, but I come to feel that I really have to do the subject matter proper rights by thoroughly protecting it. I think that by following some of these guidelines I conclude up lowering out significant aspects to the discussion. I guess you’ve to obtain a stability.
