MYTH VS FACT: White Teeth and Healthy Teeth

This is another common myth we all love to believe simply because of how aesthetically pleasing white teeth are. I am sure we can all agree that white teeth are very appealing and look great, but just because yours are not SUPER white, does not mean you are unhealthy.

Even thought you have white teeth, you can still have gum disease, decay, cavities and more. White teeth can be obtained by professional bleaching done at a dental office, white strips sold at CVS, and many other at home methods people like to use.However, this does not mean this will be good for you.

Most important than anything is getting your 6 month checkups twice a year to make sure your teeth are not decaying. After you are aware that your teeth are doing great, then you can focus on getting whitening treatments done. But, do not rely on the myth that white teeth are healthy teeth because that just is not always the case!
