People want to look good and feel good about themselves. As long as there is no detrimental effect in the short or long term, everyone would prefer whiter teeth. The dentists in this case are just giving the public what they want. However I would worry if the patients became obsessive about continually trying to whiten their already white teeth. Everything is good, but in moderation. As with everything in life, going overboard can cause problems. I don’t think the results are any surprise.
