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.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
