Women's Dental Health: Get a Movie Star Smile (on a Regular Person Budget)You don't have to spend a ton of money to have a mouthful of beautiful, healthy teeth and a stunning smile -- these 11 tips prove it |
Don't use your teeth! When it comes to keeping your mouth looking pretty, Dr. Dorfman
strongly cautions against ever "using your teeth as a can opener." He also cites "chewing on pens, ice or popcorn kernels" as really bad ideas. (And jokes that he has "probably made enough money fixing teeth that were cracked on popcorn kernels to buy a luxury car!")

I have dozens of floss packs scattered around the house! I'm actually going to dental school this fall. My roommates probably hate me because I'm constantly bugging them with facts about oral health and flossing!

Being someone who had very bad teeth due to drinking soda, not having the funds to go to the dentist, and after having my braces turn my teeth yellow, I know how important your smile and teeth are to the outside world. People often look at your smile first and that usually means seeing your teeth, and they base a lot on how your teeth look. These tips are all wonderful but the best one is to go to the dentist regularly. It took 7 hours straight, in a dentist chair, having my 6 front teeth ground down to spikes, and then getting fitted for my temporary crowns. This took $12000 to fix and when all was said and done, it took 16 hours of fear, pain, and tears just to get my 6 front teeth looking presentable. Go to the dentist!
