    I have noticed something strange and was if anyone else noticed this with their teeth.

    I went to the Dentist last year and he told me my teeth are perfectly healthy which I agree with.

    However, My problem is this, When I look at my teeth in the any cars wing mirror they look badly discoloured and stained. but they look perfectly white in photos and any mirrors I have in my house?? I was wondering why this is?

    Car mirrors are designed to dampen the glare from bright lights (cars/sun) so as not to blind the driver. Therefore all colours look darker.
