Augmum:

i think i rather save the 18K for my old age...and settle for that Not so perfect teeth

some people need it. Eg artistes. See those Korean starS? All got such nice teeth (and I noticed they smiled s much!)

Kim ng (local artiste) also spent a bomb on getting her set of pearlies whiter than her white Porsche.

Wide price range... ranges from made in China/turkey... to USA/canada... US$15- US$305... I bought the mid range price one from Spain... very excited, can't wait to try on it...

btw, comes with laser light or juz blue LED light, think shd be LED blue light.
wah....such a big price difference.....must do some research on it....

Hi, Augmum.... It's the LED light, not the Laser light like the dentist use!
I just opened the packet and tried on it... it was quite easy, I just used the \"tray\" that I already have... just squeeze in the whitening gel into the tray, wear it and shone the blue LED light on it for 10 mins.

Verdict?... :rahrah: (got result worrrrr ...)

read about biological dentistry here..

in a nutshell.. dentistry that does not include the use of mercury for filling teeth... ideally... also not using root canal treatments and other harmful materials to address tooth issues...

always prioritise general overall well being over vanity

It's AUD500 per veneer... she did 20 teeth plus the correction of 3 crooked teeth... but I must say the result is amazing, she looks radiant with that perfect white and straight set of teeth, now she can wear the nude, the pale pink, the faint violet tone of lip colors and not looking sallow....

It's amazing how a set of teeth could've made such a difference in a person's look. :please:

oh.....definitely....it makes a great difference ....but for $18 K ?? :faint:

Din know that nowadays dental charges are so exp.....a few thousands for an impant :yikes:


All these \"root canal\" and \"crowning\" seem new terms to me.....
I have Not visit a dentist for the past 10+ yrs....(touch wood )
Think i better make an appt with any dentist to get my teeth a good checkup.....but i really hate to visit a dentist.....

Good for you augmum. That means your teeth are \"born\" nice and healthy and hv been healthy.

I have been taking my set of great teeth for granted for so long until people around me got wisdom tooth extracted (and then ended up got complication), root canal, implants, braces, seeing Orthodonists etc. Those hear say and see for myself really woke me up.

Imami,
For the period of yrs which give me problem -free....think....i shdnt be asking for more.....

Ya.....this thread does awaken me, for not taking my set of teeth to be granted....

for 10 mins, u already see results ? wow...that's good....
(sometimes, i so wonder does LED light make a difference, since it is not laser, like those home euipment for facial ?)

If I remembered correctly, it was on the papers. And when she did 成人杂志， there was one episode where they did a feature on teeth whitening. She mentioned $10k.

..... and the suffering lei :faint: ... it's not an easy just-glue-on job, gums need to be pushed back to make more space for the veneers, and have to push the \"threads\" into the every tooth's gum line to cushion and also to close the potential gaps between the veneer and the tooth.... the prepping saw her gums bleeding quite heavily :faint:

After watching her entire procedure's video recording, I now take even better care of my pearlies...

I did teeth whitening before. Not those by dentists.


A few shades whiter but gave me sensitive teeth. Ooh… Pain wor. I don’t have sensitive teeth previously, never knew how it was like. Saw those toothpaste for sensitive teeth commercials, was always wondering got so pian meh? So drama…

The lady who did my whitening did tell me, the process might bring forth sensitive teeth. It really happened! For a few weeks I did have sensitive teeth and finally knew how it felt to have lightning strikes in my mouth. The lucky thing is it didn’t last. Heng ar…
