All of our favorite actors have beautiful straight and white teeth. Its a must in society, but even more extreme in this industry. Why? For the same reason hair removal and skin care are fundamental now: HD! High definition means that when the public is looking at you in the movies, your pores can be the size of a fist. Also means that if your teeth are anything but gleaming pearls everyone will see. And its one of the fastest ways to become unattractive. Risking sounding vulgar, my father always told me: look at how a woman (I think it applies to men too) takes care of her mouth, and you’ll know how she takes care of her…well, her intimates. It might be true or not, but I have always found that for me (and most people I know) one of the biggest turn offs is a bad mouth.

Crooked teeth? Gaps? Yellow coloring? Its OK!!! Now a days ANYONE can have a great smile. Starting with the most obvious: teeth whitening. In Hollywood the big stars use porcelain veneers. They last long, dont change color, glisten and shine, and even correct minor imperfections of=r gaps. But to get just one tooth done costs around 3000 bucks! Done right at least. So unless you can afford it, stick to other easier methods:

• Britesmile teeth whitening: (600$) Using a special light with a whitening gel, this is an in-office bleaching system. It is often followed up with an at-home bleaching kit if needed.

• Laser bleaching:(1000$)Using a laser with a whitening gel, this is an in-office bleaching system.

• Custom fit-tray bleaching:(200$) A custom fitted tray is worn over your teeth. A small amount of the bleaching gel is placed in the tray and worn for a brief amount of time each day.

• In-mall whitening stores or stands: (100$)This is a newer whitening option but is basically the same as the in-home kits. A custom fitted tray or strips are worn over your teeth.

• Store bought whitening strips:(20$)A whitening strip is fitted over your upper and lower teeth. You’ll wear them for a half hour to one hour once a day depending on the brand.

I personally think its best to let a pro do it, and investing in your mouths health is worth while. Also I have experienced sensitivity problems with at home strips. But even more important than the whitening… is making sure your mouth is healthy, clean, brushed 3 times a day, and your breath is in order!!!! For all those kissing scenes!
