There have been many advances in teeth whitening approaches over the last decade. All of them still require the user (yourself or your dentist) to use the products safely.

Being told that you need to have a tooth extracted is a sore subject (no pun intended) for many people. This is most often the case when it comes to having your wisdom teeth taken out (as so many of us do). Let’s explore the issue some more though. What Happens During an Extraction & […]
