Removing staining from my teeth

I'm so proud of myself for finally quitting smoking. I am feeling so much better and I love the way that my body is recovering from those years of cigarettes.

This blog has some information on teeth whitening for ex-smokers including some tips on choosing a dentist to perform the whitening.
