you have it so flaunt it!


before i say another word... class, please tell me what is the difference between the two pictures? colour, yes... lighting, yes... the tops, yes (that's obvious!)... but what else? are you drawn to the picture on the left or the one on the right? (leave your thoughts in the comments box below)

if you noticed the smile, then we are thinking alike! so yes, it's going to be white wednesday and first up, let's discuss your pearlie whites. teeth is something we ALL have... doesn't need much training in the gym or a super strict diet to get teeth... 

however, there are a couple of things we can do to our teeth to enhance our smiles...

1) whitening: this i did and boy was it a painful S$600! i got my teeth moulded then they give you this tray in which you squeeze in the whitening gel... you wear that tray with the gel for an hour every day for two weeks... my memories of those hours were mostly tearing, salivating, pain... but yes, my teeth became whiter. if you have a low threshold for pain, try something else...

2) braces: this i have yet to try... most people do it to correct their bites and align their teeth but boy, the experience takes a whole lot of endurance. for a start, they have to pull out teeth that are in the way... then they put on the braces that gets tighten every couple of weeks (depending on the severity). also you have to put in rubber bands...

on the good side of braces, it's a surefire way for weight loss cos you can't eat or bite properly... you won't be eating much cos you worry about having to rid your teeth of stuck food...

what's bad? ulcers on a regular basis... and yes, if not careful, you might cut yourself (and the person you are kissing...)

but whether you do something to fix your smile or not, a genuine smile is always a great fashion accessory to have... don't believe me? ask Jessica Simpson!

just a little trick that i learnt... the best smiles usually show little or no gum and eight of your teeth (just the upper jaw...) so here's what we are all going to do the next time we walk past a reflective surface:

flash your pearlie whites...
eight to get it right!

have fun! BAM!
