Suggestions please

I have had a go at this and would really appreciate suggestions for techniques to whiten the teeth? Any other suggestions or critique would be welcome.

It's tough too see the detail in your low resolution attachment, but I would say a little bit of dodging would take care of the problem.

As Murray stated the resolution is low and hard to see but you could use a new layer set to soft light and a small soft brush and paint with white adjust the opacity to your taste.

Thanks.
I started off with the clone and healing brush tools to remove any marks/creases on her face, teeth, etc; added color by painting on a new layers in color mode; denoised; blurred a B&W duplicate and changed the blend mode of that layer to soft light to soften; etc. In each case, I applied the effect and then used a hide-all mask and a soft white brush to selectively make the changes.
Here's the B&W and then I got carried away from there.


Cheers.
