It’s been accepted in society that white teeth are more attractive to look at. It’s something many of us aspire to have because it makes us more attractive, confident, and trustworthy. It also implies that we take good care of our teeth and care about daily self-care. However, it’s possible to have a white smile and still have unhealthy teeth and poor oral care habits.
Whether you’re getting your tenth teeth-whitening treatment in-office or you’ve cleared the shelves of take-home whitening kits from your local pharmacy, it doesn’t mean you can put off your oral hygiene. No amount of whitening will protect you from the harmful bacteria living in your mouth.
