Bleachorexia
(noun): Obsession with whitening one's teeth
That
I found this slang term referenced in an actual dental textbook is both surprising
and NOT SURPRISING AT ALL, considering today's celebrity esthetic.
Bleachorexics are obsessed with whitening. They impose self-denial of tea,
coffee and wine all in the name of whiter teeth. These are the same patients asking their
dentist about achieving a physically impossible shade of whitened teeth.
Are
you a closet bleachorexic?
Helpful
tip—the teeth should never be whiter than the white part of your eye, called
the sclera. If you make them whiter, you risk looking like a cartoon character. Chicklets anyone?
Like
plastic surgery and tattoos, whitening can be addictive. Start any whitening
process with your target shade in mind. This allows you to avoid obsession and
the dreaded Bleachorexic mentally. Have that glass of wine—your friends can thank me later.
