Hi Maria, I am very lucky that I don't need to use such things. About once a month I just remove them and give them one coat of white out. Works like a charm.....

Can't have "neatier issues" without the teeth to bite in, I guess....

How white are my teeth? Well they'd look much whiter if I could work on my tan! How about we dial up a little sun in the forecast for a rare change my fine weather peeps?! Or did Kevin take it with him on vaca? Never had my teeth whitened at a mall kiosk and never really noticed the kiosks before either. Had laser whitening done a few yrs back at a dental office and my teeth hurt for days, so I'm not sure I'd be cool having that done by some dude working in a mall. What's next Botox kiosks? Maybe some Lasik right next to the Cinnabun? If it's even a little complicated, I say get it done in a professional office setting. Now once again, a little sunshine please...

Maria,

My teeth are actually pretty good. I guess it wouldn't be too bad to have them a little whiter, but I can't complain. Teeth whitening kiosks?? That don't sound too good.

I avoid malls altogether.

I, personally have never had my teeth whitened, nor do I think I will be doing so anytime soon. My daughter works for a dentist, and she has had her teeth bleached, used the whitening trays, and used several other methods, and she has said her teeth have hurt for days after--even with the most recent one that claimed to cause NO sensitivity. I think I'll pass--I have had enough tooth pain, I don't care to have more.

Maria,

I take excellent care of my teeth, which is why I'd NEVER take any steps to make them unnaturally whiter.
There was a guy who approached me at the Planning Board meeting in Plymouth one time with unusually white teeth, and he kept smiling at me like he was trying to show them off. He creeped me right out, and I did my best to ignore him until he went away.
I don't think women should do it; but I think the only men who would even CONSIDER doing it are either very effeminate, or very vain. ...Ick...

This whole craze has gotten a little out of control if you ask me. There is a certain personality that I am crazy about...he has a show about how he tames dogs for people. From one week's episode to the next, his teeth went completely bright, "Get out your sunglasses if you're going to be close to my mouth" white. It's unnatural. He had decently clean teeth before that.

As far as letting anyone in a mall do anything to my body, I'll pass.

I'm with the Captain. Here I am. If you like me, fine. If not, oh well, I have enough friends anyway. In some rare cases this should be done for emotional reasons, but let's face it, we're a very vain society.

Ok Graham you got me again. I'm going to have to look up the meaning of 'meretricious'. LOL
