For the last few weeks, I have been trying the Dr. Song Professional Teeth Whitening Kit in my attempt to brighten up my teeth by Christmas.
The kit contains:
8 XL Syringes (44% Carbamide Peroxide)
Gel Applicator
White LED Light
Thermoform Trays
The first thing I noticed about this kit is that the trays are completely different than from others that I have tried. Similar to an at-home night guard, the trays have to be placed in boiled water for a few seconds. Then you quickly fit the tray around your teeth and basically you have to suck the air out of tray. This way the tray is a perfect mold of your teeth.
You'll need a bowl or a cup to put a little dab of the Carbamide Peroxide in it, grab the applicator and apply the Carbamide Peroxide to the front side of each tooth. Then slip the trays around your teeth. You can place the White LED Light in your mouth for about 15 minutes. The teeth whitening session can last 30 minutes or up to several hours depending on your sensitivity. The kit should last about 50 treatments.

Arriving on DVD tomorrow from ARC Entertainment is the Civil War drama Field of Lost Shoes. The film is directed by Sean McNamara (Soul Surfer) and stars David Arquette, Keith David, Lauren Holly, Jason Isaacs and Tom Skerritt. There are no extras or special features on the DVD.
Winner of the 2014 Best Dramatic Feature from the 8th Annual GI Film Festival, Field of Lost Shoes is based on the true story of the Battle of New Market in 1864. The film centers on seven friends - Sam Atwill, John Wise, Jack Stanard, Robert 'Sir Rat,' Benjamin 'Duck' Colonna Garland Jefferson and Moses Ezekiel, (played by Max Lloyd-Jones, Luke Benward, Zach Roerig, Nolan Gould, Sean Marquette, Parker Croft and Josh Zuckerman), whom are all cadets at the Virginia Military Institute. They are ordered along with 269 other young men to provide support for the Confederate States Army under the command of General John C. Breckenridge (played by Jason Isaacs) during the Battle of New Market.
General John C. Breckenridge had no attention of using the cadets in the battle, but after many attack by the Union Army, the cadet battalion moved forward into the heat of the battle. Out of the seven characters that the movie focuses on, only four survived.
