False; Teeth whitening is the same as having teeth cleaned
Correct: Teeth whitening is the process of lightening the internal color of the teeth with a chemical agent and is a cosmetic application. Tooth cleaning means removing the tartar and making the gums and surrounding tissues healthy. It is the removal of external stains on the teeth by mechanical methods.
Wrong; dentists lie to their patients saying that the procedures they will perform will not hurt. The truth is that it will hurt a lot.
True: What lies do we owe? Necessary precautions are taken to prevent pain and correct information is given to the patient in an ethical manner.
Wrong; if I have a denture, veneer or any prosthetic applied once, I will use it for the rest of my life. If I have not used it, it is because it is poorly made.
Correct: Prosthetic applications are changed depending on the patient's oral hygiene and due to the deterioration of prosthetic materials with oral fluids, etc. I mean, there is no such thing that will never change again throughout life. It's nice to dream, but it doesn't match reality.
Wrong; if we spray the tooth, it will numb and I won't hear a thing
True: Surface drugs like spray are harsh. They do not numb the tissue, that is, the teeth. They numb the mucosa, that is, the soft tissues around the teeth.
False: if my tooth does not hurt, there is no problem
True; tooth decay and gum diseases do not always have to cause pain. There is a problem in your tooth. If there is a cavity, it should be cleaned and the necessary treatment should be done, even if there is no pain.
Wrong: Dentists get angry when they call them dentist
True; we don't really care, but why should we use the terminology incorrectly? while there is.
