Teeth whitening


falcao

Recommended Posts

i paid around ?300 ish pound for this at the dentist, it was ok but not brilliant . Teeth moulding and gel trays. To be honest the whitening kit from boots for about ?20 was just as good. Apparently having the teeth lasered is the permanent way to do it, think it costs around ?400-?500 privately. Was looking myself for where to get this done. Get back to you if i get any more info .

Tie a tourniquet round the neck and twist it tight ! the "redness" of the head in general contrasts with the teeth, making them more "white" in appearance


Though striking up "casual" conversation with the same/opposite like this isn't easy.


However a well appointed newspaper to hide your neck behind can be effective, try not to lapse in to unconsciousness here.


Oh and "Good luck"




*OO*


Ps After all that effort remember to smile .

use the Brightsmile system - pretty good and a lot less painful than the conventional lasers which heat up the teeth.


I had mine done in Thailand though! - about ?200. I think its about ?300ish in the uk for the same treatment.


For a cheap home alternative google 'oil pulling' - one of the side effects is whiter teeth, but you have to do it daily.

also be aware that sensitivity will / can be an issue after the treatment. You are stripping away a couple of layers of enamel which brings the nerve endings closer to the surface. Also be careful as only dentists are legally allowed to perform this as it uses v.powerful chemicals (hydrogen peroxide) to strip the enamel - beauty salons and whitening clinics that don't have a dentist performing this procedure are expoliting a loophole in the law whilst the legal situation is clarified at EU level. If the trays arent made up correctly and some of the gel gets on your gums, you will know about it, big time.

I?m using whitening strips from Stella white and I can say that it really works! You can buy a quality treatment kit online for ?70 or so and it works just as good as going to the dentist and do it. The strips I bought are very easy to use because there?s no fussing around with trays and gels :)

Trouble is glacier white is almost blue. Much better the old days when whites were creamier as they hadn't started adding the strong white pigment titatinium dioxide to paints. Bit like teeth really.

    • A repetitive tried and tested cycle that seems to be slowing down in London thankfully. Brixton was the start. Councils consciously and purposely let an area decline until that area is next on the list for social and ethnic cleansing and ultimately gentrification. In come the first wave of arty/ creatives to squat and house share. A few coffee shops and cool but inexpensive cafe/ bars and art spaces open up. The crackheads, dealers and other assorted criminals who were once left to operate openly and brazenly to sell, shop lift, mug, beg, purchase,  publicly consume on decent folks doorsteps, stairwells,in bin sheds and without fear of the law begin to be targeted, rounded up and moved on. A few more jaunty and sustainable coffee shops/ bars appear . The Guardian and other facilitators in the media jump on the bandwagon, first claims of vibrancy are rolled out. Next step a few cool retro clothing shops pop up selling ' reclaimed Levi's for more than they originally cost and ten times the price of what the recently departed charity shop charged. Foxtons open a branch and the arty types and first wavers/ drivers have there first moan about there initially paltry rents going up. The guardian do a generic lets move to Brixton, Dalston, Hackney, Deptford, Walthamstow type double pager. Interview a graphic designer or two who have just bought a former crack den on the manor for next to peanuts. They will later bemoan the next wave who have more money than them. Cool, edgy and vibrant are now the buzzword bingo must use lingo. Few more coffee shops ( how original ) Pop up everything,. Organic and sour dough move in. The night time economy starts to thrive, more cool bars and eateries open. More squats and the last crack house that was once one of many are cleared out. Second wave is around the corner.   All of a sudden there's a visible police presence again and the streets are safe for fun seekers with plenty of disposable cash to chuck about on a dose of vibrancy with added coolness. By this stage even the locally brewed beer is organic. There's queues outside the newly arrived organic, sourdough, artisan and sustainable bakers. Instagram has Brixton trending. The greasy spoon of thirty year has gone cause the lease is up and the landlord has hiked the rents up by 60/70%. Followed by small family run independents that served the community  for decades and more.  The local characters, activists, eccentrics are getting less and less. There's a new show in town for a week or two and until the next brand arrives. Brewdog move in. Former job centres are converted into bars but peak edginess means it's still called the job centre. Followed by a couple more chain eateries. The resident DJ'S and music venues are replaced by another generic brand boasting guest chefs. The Guardian lifestyle section is now on it's fifth or sixth orgasm. Turn a few pages and hypocrisy is rampant with articles on the evils of gentrification, foxtons, capitalism, social cleansing and unaffordable housing. The middle classes continue to arrive in there droves to buy into the vibrancy and multiculturalism supposedly on offer. There isn't much multiculturalism going on at the packed latest place to eat, drink and fart. The multiculturalism on show comes in the form of bar staff, doorman and cheap as chips uber drivers and delivery workers. Rice and peas, jerk everything, red stripe at six quid a can from some hipster haunt that is currently flavour of the month and the place to be seen. The first wavers are now blaming the latest hedge funded brand that's pulled into town for driving gentrification and there soon to be hastened departure to be first wavers again somewhere else. Less cool but up and coming here we come. Covid has certainly helped/ been a factor in slowing down the process of gentrification. I also think it may be the driver for almost putting a stop to it. Remote working, less need to move to London to be near an office, less disposable cash, sky high rents, worthless degrees that relied on that disposable cash , different priorities, knife and gang crime and a large dose of much needed realism has put a huge spanner in the works for the shitty process and cycle that is/ was the gentrification and social cleansing of working class London. Manchester and Liverpool is next on the list for the planners. Thankfully.
