Teeth Whitening

That would have probably offended me too if it’s not something that I talked about before. But don’t let them bring you down. If you want it and they’re paying go for it. If you don’t that’s their problem not yours who cares if you are happy with that’s all that matters.

Hey I’d do it if they were paying for it 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’d get a lot of shot done for free tho lol

I asked my dentist about whitening for my wedding. She basically said all the ones you can buy at the store are the same with different gimmicks to increase the price. They're good enough. She did say the whitening they can do at the office isn't necessary and the other stuff should be fine but I could have them do it if I wanted.

FH and I just got our teeth whitened, but it was something we talked about together and wanted to do. If someone else offered to pay for it, I would take them up on the offer, it can add up quickly. I can see how it would come across as offensive, and I would probably be a little bit too if said in that way. Maybe it’s something she would have wanted for herself and thought you might like it as well? Just a thought. No matter what you choose to do, you’ll look gorgeous in person and in photos!

Id be peeved as well....

I could see how it would offend you. Maybe for their wedding they got their teeth whitened and thought it would be nice to do that for you? I wouldn’t take it too personally because I think they were just trying to be nice. Like someone else said though, if you do want to get them whitened I would go for it for sure since they’re willing to pay for it! Plus it lasts a long time so you’re teeth will be super duper white long after your wedding! 😁

While he is at it what is his opinion of your face in general. Does it need lots if work? And what is his opinion of your butt, and your bust line. Too big, too small, need a little shaping? One thing is for sure, both your father and your sister could use some expert work on their deficiency of manners. Him for saying that in the presence of others to begin with, and her for passing it on. You likely look like a real person. That is a good thing. All whiteners, including processes done by cosmetic dentistry, do some minor damage to tooth enamel, which will not be a good thing as time passes. Normal teeth are not white white. There is a variation in color of ivories to white, just as there is a variation in skin color in categories we might call white or brown or black skin. Be happy with your own self. Not someone else's idea of a human Barbie doll or manikin, features , shape, and coloring to order.
