In this Photoshop tutorial, you will learn how to whiten your teeth from photos. Just follow the steps of this free Photoshop tutorial and you will see how easy the Teeth Whitening can be and how realistic your image can look at the end. You don't need to be a Photoshop expert to do this.
To show you how easy your teeth withening can be we will use this photo. You should open an image of yours in Photoshop and try this by following all the mentioned steps.

After your image is open, select the Lasso Tool from the tools window and surround the teeth area. Don't worry if is not perfect, we will get rid of the extra selected area later. The idea is that all the teeth area to be inside.

After the teeth area is selected with the Lasso Tool, hit the right mouse button and click the "Layer via Copy" option from the menu. We do this to work on a new layer without ruining the original image.

When the new layer is created and selected (in the layer window), go to the Image section in the upper menu, than Adjustments and click on Replace Color option. Like you see in this image, a new window will open and you will have the Eyedropper Tool in use. Now you should click on your image to select the color you want to replace. Click on one of your teeth. The selected color should appear in this new window. Set the Fuzziness to maximum and with the Image field checked, start playing with the Saturation and Lightness values. There is no need to modify the Hue Value. You have to decrease the saturation to get rid of the yellow color of your teeth and increase the lightning value. Don't worry if a part of your lips will look bad, what you have to do now is whitening your teeth. When you think your tooth looks perfect click the Ok button to apply the changes.

Now, when your teeth are white, we should get rid of the ruined parts of your lips. Select the Eraser Tool from the Tools Window. By right clicking the mouse set the hardness of your Eraser Tool to 0% and the diameter to any size you think you can work better with. With the same new layer you created selected, start erasing around your teeth until it looks perfect.

When everything looks perfect, link the two layers, the original one with your image and the new layer you created. After that, go to the Layer section in the upper menu and select the Merge Linked option. We should have a single layer now.

Here is the final result with original teeth look and the whitened teeth.
