So many adverts made by ‘western’ companies, especially anything related to toothpaste/other dental stuff, have the presenter smile with some uniform, white flat teeth. I feel like they look sort of uncanny, they just seem off-putting to me. Most people have decently flat teeth but they aren’t that fake-looking white. I have pointy canines/pre molars that definitely look completely different to the ‘perfect teeth’.

    Everyone these days looks like Ross Geller from the episode where he left the bleach on his teeth overnight on accident. Back then it was a funny joke. Now it’s every single entertainer on the planet, and 80% of people who can afford it.

        My dentist made me a silicone mold for $70. All I have to buy is cheap whitener off Amazon.

          Is there a brand you would recommend? Growing up, I drank basically nothing but tea and (later) coffee. I don’t like the super white teeth look, but a little whiter wouldn’t hurt.
