  1. I totally agree with you that it is most people’s dream to have white teeth! I sure don’t! Now I know there are home remedies and DIY methods, yet my best bet would probably be going to a dentist for this. I’ve been thinking of getting a whitening procedure done for some time now, and since bleaching is the most common method, I might just go with that.

  2. Having white teeth is important because it gives a good impression in the first meeting. But what usually causes why teeth discolored?
