In 2013, new legislature was passed that made the use of hydrogen peroxide as a tooth whitening agent illegal. All products that contained hydrogen peroxide were to be removed immediately, and clinics were not to offer these treatments or face criminal charges.

My dentist has recommended that I get dental implants for my missing teeth. I have three missing back teeth on my lower left side. I know that this is a good idea in certain ways, but how do I know that I will not be in that 2% that experience dental implant failure, and even more seriously, how do I know that I won’t experience peri-implantitis?

I have been reading a bunch of articles about the supposed negative aspects of smoking on your teeth. Besides causing cancer, I cannot say that smoking does anything at all to your oral environment, and certainly does not make your teeth bad. I come to you to ask for the truth behind this big anti-smoking campaign. Is it really bad for teeth or is it just the anti-smoking hype? Please be honest!

I know I need to see a dentist, but I have very little money. I have no money to go to a consultation and shell out the massive fees for dental treatment, so I was wondering if you can tell me what I have, and then I can start saving up money to get the situation cleared.

I have a problem that is on again and off again, and I don’t know what to do with it. My teeth are sometimes very sensitive to warm foods and warmth in general makes them act up. They otherwise do not hurt, are totally,clean, not discolored at all, and are doing just fine.
