Stress – when you get stressed your brain prompts your adrenal glands to release a surge of hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol. Too much adrenaline in your system can cause you to grind your teeth, chipping and cracking them. It can also cause high blood pressure, angina, headaches, upset stomach or heartburn, sore throats and sleep disorders. Thankfully the best dental discount plan in Macon offered by Doc Wellbee will help you save big on getting those chipped and cracked teeth fixed.
Sugar-free foods – Research by the University of Melbourne’s Oral Health division found that sugar-free foods and drinks with acidic additives and low pH levels can damage the enamel, regardless of whether the item contains sugar or not. For example, the research team found that sugar-free drinks like Diet Coke can soften enamel by 30-50%. So, don’t assume that sugar-free means safe-for-your-smile.
Social media – following the latest dental care tips online can be disastrous for your smile. From homemade braces to brushing teeth with highly abrasive substances, please don’t rely on random strangers for oral health advice and treatment suggestions. Trust what your dentist tells you because they went to school for nearly a decade to learn how to care for your teeth. If price is the reason why you’re not going to the dentist make sure you sign up for the best dental discount plan in Macon.
Teeth are not tools – Scissors, corkscrews, and can openers are tools, your teeth are not. Whenever you consider using your teeth to open, remove, rip or snap something, take two seconds to grab the right tool instead. An emergency trips to the dentist and a lot of money can be saved if you treat your teeth right.
