One analogy I'd like to use with my patients, but I don't have the guts to say, is as follows. When I ask the patient which of three shades they'd like to have for their veneers/crowns/bleaching etc., they usually say "Don't worry doc, just give me the whitest ones you have." I'd like to say, "If you were going to a plastic surgeon for breast implants and the doc said what size do you want, would it be a good idea to say, 'Don't worry doc, just give me the biggest one's you have.'....?" There really should be an upper limit on most things. I liked the comment that your goal should be to match the white of your eyes. That sounds reasonable.
