After years of contemplating, I think I’m ready to invest in Crest Whitestrips and give teeth whitening a whirl. However, I am wavering a little bit, mostly because I am wondering about the results.

My teeth are fairly white already, but two decades of coffee drinking and weekly wine indulging have robbed my chompers of their extreme pearly whiteness. However, I would hate to have my teeth get too white -- nobody wants a truly blinding smiling -- but my gut says that won't happen with a home whitening kit. Right?

I plan to document this process, so I’ll post the results in a later blog. In the mean time, I’ll take this opportunity to report that my New Year's resolution to floss daily is going very well. I know you were wondering.
