Then she makes a mold of my top teeth for take-home trays—Lowenberg prescribes supplemental posttreatment tray sessions to boost the laser's effects (the trays are used for only a few days and with a lower-concentration bleach than that used in the tray-only method).
(The technique restores only your teeth to a natural white color; it returns artificial surfaces such as caps to their original color, but not to white.) My gums are covered with a liquidy rubber solution to protect them from the bleaching agent and the plasma lamp.

BROADWAY: THE GOLDEN AGE, a documentary currently in post-production, is the first film to recount the history of the famed White Way from the point of view of the actors who lived it.
Director Rick McKay, an Emmy award-winning producer for the PBS series City Arts and Egg, the Arts Show, has spent the past five years tracking down dozens of Broadway legends, compiling an extensive archive of feature-length interviews with everyone from Fay Wray to George Abbott to Farley Granger to the seclusive Maureen Stapleton.
Together with archival footage, home movies provided by the stars, and still photos, the feature McKay intends to fashion will necessitate leaving a great deal of the material he’s recorded out of the film.
