Glowing teeth and the joy of Self-Approval

"I looked in the mirror and noticed that my teeth were unbelievably white. They looked almost too perfect, and I couldn't stop smiling at myself. I kept checking them from different angles, wondering when they had become so bright. I brushed them again anyway, even though they were already clean. For some reason, I felt really happy about it. Then suddenly I was at a family gathering. Everyone was talking and laughing, and I remember feeling unusually confident. Someone made a joke, and I laughed so hard that everyone could see my teeth. Later, I was walking down a street at night, still smiling for no real reason. I passed a shop window and caught my reflection. My teeth were glowing in the dark. That should have looked strange, but somehow it felt completely normal. I woke up smiling and checked my teeth in the bathroom mirror, half expecting them to still be that white."
