Have you seen dental kits for sale that promise to give you all the tools you need to clean your teeth, just like a dentist, at home? Tempted? We don’t blame you! After all, if like most people (our clients excluded), you dread going to the dentist, using a professional dental kit might seem like an obvious way to take better care of your teeth and gums.
A wobbly tooth is always a cause for concern. Although it may be tempting, do not move your tooth with your fingers or push it with your tongue to find out how loose it is. When you wiggle it about, you will loosen it further, and it is more likely to fall out.
When you decide to straighten your teeth as an adult, it is probably something you have thought about for a while. Invisalign treatment offers the most popular alternative to metal braces, and dentists prefer Invisalign clear aligners over all other brands.
Have you recently had a filling fall out or noticed a hole in a tooth? Are you considering buying a temporary tooth-filling kit to do a spot of DIY dentistry? If you think it looks like a quick and easy solution that will save you a visit to the dentist, we’ve got a whole host of reasons why using a temporary tooth filling kit is not a good idea.
