Update on Project: White Teeth

I'm halfway done with my teeth whitening. I've used two of the four tubes of whitening agent that my dentist provided. My teeth *are* noticeably whiter, but I can't tell if they are a number better on the scale provided or not. I think I need a second set of eyes to help with that determination. (I'll probably have Kevin help me with that later.)

Of note: Immediately following each whitening session, I have white horizontal streaks across my teeth. This caused me to panic at first, but the dentist said that it was completely normal, and that they would fade within 24 to 48 hours. This has proved to be true, as the streaks are almost completely gone each day before I whiten again. You would have thought that someone would have warned me about that, though. So, consider yourself warned, should you ever do a whitening procedure.

And now I have this great visual of the episode of FRIENDS, where Ross whitened his teeth--fell asleep and left the stuff on overnight, and they were literally glowing like Rudolph's nose--tee hee:)
