blendend weiß


Explanation:
That is the word you are looking for.I am almost sure.

References:
http://www.dict.cc/deutsch-englisch/blendend wei�.html : this is a dictionary which also gives this as a solution



Also Duden,the widely acknowledged German dictionary uses this term:
http://www.duden.de/index2.html?duden-suche/werke/felix/000/...

Dann ein bißchen Kontext:

Gesund sollen die Zähne sein, regelmäßig und am liebsten blendend weiß. Leider haben nur wenige von Natur aus ein Vorzeige-Gebiss. Deshalb steht auch am Anfang vieler Hollywood-Karrieren der Gang zum Zahnarzt. Wie er ein strahlendes Lächeln zaubert und was man selbst tun kann, verrät FOCUS online.(Quotation from. op.cit:http://focus.msn.de/gesundheit/zaehne/vorbeugung/schoenheit)

Example sentence(s):
  • SEE LINKS

disagree  Armorel Young: What you are describing is bright white or brilliant white, whereas the asker needs a term for a pinkish-tinted white.
