How to get my teeth to look good?!


Question: How to get my teeth to look good?
When I was younger I never brushed my teeth or ate right. Now I'm 19 and I brush about 4 times a day, plus I don't drink sodas or sugary foods. But my teeth are still very yellow and a little loose in the front (although this could be due to me having a slight overbite). My gums used to be loose-ish but now they are tightening up again. How can I get my teeth to be white? I don't think at my age that the enamel is gone, but then again I used to never care about my teeth, so I don't know. I'm always afraid that they will fall out now. How can I get them to look healthier so that I don't worry as much?

Answers:

Sounds like you need to go to the dentist and have a professional cleaning. The dental hygienist can address the issues of mobility and gum health. You may even leave with a prescription mouth rinse to help your gums. While there you can also discuss whitening either with a take-home kit or in-office 1-hour bleaching.
All-in-all, it's good to get a clean bill of health to make sure you'll be keeping your teeth for a long time to come and that you're not going to have any nasty surprises with a large cavity turning into a painful abscess in the future.
SMILE! :D
