With over one billion active users, many people use the app for more than just entertainment. Through TikTok, you can learn about cooking, self-defense, fashion, and even health and dental topics. Unfortunately, not all the information on the app is as it seems. Some of it may even be a danger to one\u2019s oral health. Read on to learn about one of the most popular dangerous dental trends on TikTok called the \u201cVeneers Check\u201d and the harm it can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-the-veneers-check-tiktok-trend\">What Is the \u201cVeneers Check\u201d TikTok Trend?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be wondering, how exactly does a \u201cVeneers Check\u201d work? When people participate in this internet trend, they show off their natural teeth in a filed-down state before undergoing a dental procedure. Though the appearance of their teeth can be jarring to some and may even scare away potential patients, it also isn\u2019t an accurate representation of how the veneers procedure works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-difference-between-crowns-and-veneers\">The Difference Between Crowns and Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One dentist and TikTok user explained that the shape of the teeth in the \u201cVeneers Check\u201d videos is meant for crowns, not veneers. Both crowns and veneers improve the look of a tooth, but the former is a restorative treatment and the latter is cosmetic. Veneers are thin, porcelain shells that are used to cover up stains and discoloration, chips, cracks, minor alignment issues, and gaps. When someone gets veneers, a very small amount of enamel is removed from the front of their teeth so the veneers can adhere better and blend in with their smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crowns are tooth-shaped caps that are used to repair teeth that have been severely damaged teeth. The tooth is reshaped so that the crown can fit over it without messing up your bite or feeling bulky. They are commonly used for patients who underwent a root canal and can protect and repair teeth that have been weakened due to decay or other forms of damage. Dentists are unlikely to recommend dental crowns unless the tooth has been seriously compromised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-it-s-dangerous\">Why It\u2019s Dangerous<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dentists warn that the \u201cVeneers Check\u201d trend spreads misleading information about the procedure. Contrary to what the TikTok trend has led many people to believe, the structure of the teeth isn\u2019t changed that much. &nbsp;Even so, since this trend is encouraging people to undergo an irreversible dental transformation, this can lead to patients seeking out treatments they don\u2019t need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t let dangerous dental trends cause you to make permanent, unnecessary changes to your smile. Make sure to speak with your dentist first so you can determine what the best option is for your smile and keep your pearly whites looking their best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"about-the-practice\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Jeffrey Skupny and his highly skilled Naples team at Island Coast Dentistry are dedicated to providing their Naples patients with the one-on-one attention they need to feel confident in the service they\u2019re receiving.
